Why we read it this way (7)
The role title is 'Senior III, Systems Engineer' — the 'III' suffix is an internal level designation, not a standard career-ladder number; the posting presents itself as Senior.
No specific total years of experience is stated at the role level; the requirements section lists competency areas rather than a year count.
The degree requirement states 'BS … or equivalent professional experience required,' making a formal degree non-mandatory.
The SOC classification is a close call: the role is primarily about operating and administering enterprise storage/backup infrastructure (15-1244), but it also requires writing automation scripts and IaC (Bash, Python, Terraform, Ansible), which leans toward 15-1252. The dominant day-to-day work described — provisioning arrays, managing backup jobs, SAN zoning, monitoring — tips it to 15-1244, with 15-1252 as the runner-up.
No work location or CBSA is specified; the compensation range is listed as a 'U.S. National Base Pay Range,' suggesting a remote-eligible or multi-location posting, but the JD does not explicitly state remote work is permitted — remote is marked false.
SANNav and Brocade switch CLI experience are called out in the responsibilities section as 'a plus,' so they are marked preferred. Data Domain and PowerVault appear only in the team description narrative, not in the requirements section, and are also marked preferred.
Ansible is listed in the requirements section with the qualifier 'or equivalent,' making it a hard gate on the automation/IaC capability; Terraform is the primary named tool and Ansible is listed alongside it — both are marked required.
