Why we read it this way (8)

The posting is titled 'New College Grad' and the internal job profile is 'Network Engineer E2', clearly framing this as an entry-level role; advertised seniority is Junior.

The role is primarily operational — deploying, configuring, monitoring, and troubleshooting campus LAN/wireless infrastructure under senior guidance — which fits 15-1244 (Network and Computer Systems Administrators). However, the explicit mention of Cisco/Arista environments, EVPN/VXLAN, and BGP introduces some network architecture flavor, making 15-1241 (Computer Network Architects) a plausible runner-up.

The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's or Master's degree'; Bachelor's is the minimum hard gate and is captured accordingly.

Experience requirement is stated as '1–2 years'; 1 year is used as the minimum.

BGP, EVPN, VXLAN, and CCNA appear only under 'Preferred Qualifications' and are marked accordingly.

LLMs are mentioned in the responsibilities narrative as an AI-assisted tool to leverage; they appear as context rather than a hard gate, so they are marked preferred.

The posting references 'ID1', which is Micron's Boise, Idaho fab site; the CBSA is Boise City, ID (14260).

No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
