Why we read it this way (5)
The role title is 'Network Security Engineer' but the actual responsibilities are heavily delivery-governance and client-management oriented — the posting explicitly calls for a 'Technical Manager working alongside the broader offshore/nearshore team.' This makes it a genuine hybrid between a hands-on security engineer (15-1212) and a computer/IT systems manager (11-3021); 15-1212 was chosen because the JD still requires hands-on expertise with the listed network security platforms as a primary technical competency.
The posting is located in Fort Mill, SC (body text) but the footer lists Columbia, SC. Fort Mill is in the Charlotte-Concord-Gastonia, NC-SC CBSA; Columbia, SC is a separate metro. Fort Mill was treated as the primary location given it appears in the role description itself.
ServiceNow/ITSM is noted in the skills section with a parenthetical '(inferred from delivery model; not explicitly cited)' — the JD itself flags this as inferred rather than stated, so it is marked as preferred.
No minimum years of experience are explicitly stated in the posting.
No degree requirement is stated anywhere in the posting.
