Why we read it this way (9)
The role title is 'Kinaxis RapidResponse IT Analyst' with no seniority level in the title, but the requirements (10 years total IT/supply chain experience, 5+ years with Kinaxis RapidResponse, L2/L3 support ownership, SOX compliance, and broad cross-functional leadership) clearly support a Senior-level classification.
SOC classification is a judgment call: the role is primarily a supply chain planning platform analyst/configurator (15-1211 Computer Systems Analysts) rather than a software developer, but it has meaningful integration and scripting responsibilities that could lean toward 15-1299. 15-1211 was selected as the primary given the dominant focus on configuring, administering, and optimizing a packaged planning application (Kinaxis RapidResponse) and translating business needs into system designs.
The posting lists three geographic salary zones (Zone A: $131,200–$258,500; Zone B: $120,300–$237,000; Zone C: $109,400–$215,500). The min and max reported here reflect the widest range across all zones. The role is hybrid (3 days in office, 2 days WFH) at Clorox's headquarters area; the CBSA reflects the Oakland, CA metro where Clorox is headquartered, though the exact work location may vary by zone.
MuleSoft appears in the required qualifications section as an example middleware ('e.g., MuleSoft'), which under the section-placement rule makes it a hard gate on middleware integration capability. The specific tool is interchangeable, but integration experience via middleware is required.
Python and PowerShell are listed as interchangeable alternatives ('fluency with one scripting language (e.g., Python or PowerShell)') in the requirements section — emitted as a single required skill with PowerShell as the alternative.
Jira and Azure DevOps are listed as interchangeable alternatives for backlog management in the requirements section.
Certifications (Kinaxis, SAP S/4, MuleSoft) are explicitly called 'preferred' or 'desired' in the posting.
SAP PP/DS, APO/IBP, EWM, Informatica, Azure Data Factory, and observability tooling all appear under 'desired' qualifications and are marked preferred accordingly.
The advanced degree is listed as 'a plus' and is not a hard requirement; the degree requirement is set to Bachelor's as the stated minimum.
