The role has three eligible locations — Charlotte, NC; Plano, TX; and Chandler, AZ — with a 3-day-per-week onsite requirement. The CBSA is reported as Charlotte (the first listed), but candidates may be based in the Dallas–Plano–Irving, TX CBSA (19124) or Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler, AZ CBSA (38060) instead.
SOC classification required a judgment call: the role writes automation code and builds infrastructure tooling (pointing to 15-1252 Software Developers), but also involves significant OS administration, provisioning, and platform operations (pointing to 15-1244). The primary deliverable — software solutions, templates, playbooks, and automation workflows — tips the balance toward 15-1252.
Windows Server and Linux are listed as alternatives to each other ('Windows or Linux') in the requirements; either satisfies the gate.
VMware vRealize, Linux scripting (bash/python), and API development with Swagger/WebAPI appear in a secondary bullet list at the end of the posting without a clear 'Required' heading, so they are treated as preferred rather than hard gates. Python and shell scripting are already captured as required from the main requirements block.
Infrastructure as Code is listed as a concept/familiarity requirement rather than a specific named tool (e.g., Terraform or Pulumi); it is captured as stated since no specific tool is named.
