Why we read it this way (9)
This role sits at the intersection of HVAC controls engineering and IT systems integration — it is not a pure software or computer occupation. SOC 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is used as the closest fit given the heavy emphasis on communication protocols, system integration testing, and cloud-connected platforms; 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) is a plausible runner-up given the cross-functional, consultative, and validation-focused nature of the work. Confidence is Low because the role is primarily a domain-specific controls/systems engineering position that does not map cleanly to any single SOC.
The posting explicitly frames this as a 'mid-level engineer' role in the Position Summary, which aligns with the 3–5+ years experience requirement.
Korean language fluency is listed as a hard requirement under Required Qualifications, tied to HQ collaboration duties.
'HVAC controls' and 'system integration testing' are listed as named domain requirements rather than generic soft skills — included because they gate the role alongside the protocol skills.
PCBA-level testing is explicitly called out under Required Qualifications as a lab setup capability.
Programming experience (C, C#, or similar) appears under Preferred Qualifications only.
VRF/ductless mini-split, embedded systems/microcontrollers, cloud-connected HVAC platforms, and LG ThinQ all appear under Preferred Qualifications.
The location is inferred as the New Jersey/New York metro area based on LG Electronics North America's known headquarters in Englewood Cliffs, NJ; the posting does not explicitly state a city.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): cloud-connected HVAC platforms.
