Why we read it this way (8)
This is a people-management role with direct reports, team-building accountability, budget ownership, and supplier management — mapped to Computer and Information Systems Managers (11-3021) rather than a developer SOC. 15-1252 is noted as a runner-up given the strong hands-on engineering context.
The posting lists 7 years of engineering experience and 3+ years as a senior leader of complex infrastructure teams as separate requirements; 7 years is used as the overall years minimum as the broader overall experience gate.
A Bachelor's degree in a technical field is listed as 'preferred' and equivalent experience is explicitly accepted, so no hard degree requirement is set.
Cloud-native development and containerization are called out explicitly in the requirements narrative ('cloud native software projects', 'containerized approach to development') and treated as hard gates. Multi-cloud appears in a standards/context sentence and is treated as preferred.
ITIL and Agile certifications are described as 'beneficial', not required; Agile methodology itself is required by the role description and marked as a hard gate.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
No visa sponsorship is available per the posting.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): cloud-native development.
