Why we read it this way (4)
The posting lists two tiers of qualifications: a minimum (10+ years experience, 5+ years people management) and a preferred/stronger profile (15+ years or 12+ years with a Master's, 8+ years people management, 8+ years customer-facing, 8+ years leading technical projects). The minimum figures are used for the overall years minimum and the degree requirement; the preferred figures are noted here for context.
Cloud certifications (Azure, AWS, Google, security) are listed under the preferred/additional qualifications block, not the minimum requirements — they are captured as preferred skills.
The role is explicitly not eligible for visa sponsorship.
Despite the long experience requirements (10–15+ years), this is a people-management role overseeing a team of consultants and architects — its primary day-to-day work is managing people and organizational outcomes, placing it firmly in the management SOC rather than an individual-contributor technical code. The seniority is assessed as Principal given the org-wide scope, C-suite engagement, and worldwide thought leadership responsibilities.
