Why we read it this way (4)
The JD states two overlapping experience requirements: '3+ years of network engineering experience at a company with 10+ locations' and '5 years of related technical experience with a minimum of 2-3 years in end-user support.' The lower, more specific network engineering gate (3 years) is used for the overall years minimum; the 5-year figure appears to be a broader, softer framing of overall IT experience.
Mimecast, AWS, Azure, Linux, DLP, Google Cloud Platform, MDM, and JAMF Pro are listed under a 'working knowledge of some of the following' clause, making them explicitly optional — none are hard gates.
The role involves significant end-user/helpdesk support duties alongside network engineering, but the primary framing and title are network-focused, supporting the 15-1244 classification.
The posting requires travel to AMER regional offices and on/off-site auction support, confirming this is not a remote role.
