Why we read it this way (6)
The SOC classification is a judgement call: the role is primarily hardware/system-level test engineering on a physical medical device, not software QA. 15-1253 (Software Quality Assurance Analysts and Testers) is the closest available code for a test/verification engineering function; 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) is a plausible alternative given the systems engineering and requirements-traceability emphasis.
The salary range ($59,900–$113,800/year) is unusually wide for a 0–3 year role; Boston Scientific notes compensation varies by location and experience level within that band.
