Why we read it this way (9)
The role is titled 'Senior DevOps Engineer' but the posting also uses 'DevOps Engineer' interchangeably; the advertised level is Senior.
The SOC classification is Medium confidence: the role emphasizes building self-service platforms, IaC, CI/CD pipelines, and MLOps integrations (signals for 15-1252 Software Developers), but also has a strong operational/SRE flavor (on-call, monitoring, reliability) that could support 15-1244. The primary day-to-day work leans toward building and shipping infrastructure code.
Cloud platform requirement is stated as 'AWS, GCP, or Azure' — these are listed as interchangeable alternatives under a single must-have gate. Terraform and Crossplane are similarly listed as interchangeable IaC options.
Monitoring tools (Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack) are listed as a group under required experience; Datadog is used as the primary name with the others as alternatives since the posting treats them as a set.
Scripting languages Python, Node.js, and Go are listed together as required proficiency; Python is used as the primary with the others as alternatives.
'Daily use of AI coding agents (Claude Code, Copilot, etc.) — must' is explicitly flagged as required in the qualifications. Building agentic DevOps workflows is called out as 'a plus' and captured separately as preferred.
HPC/scientific computing experience (SLURM, AWS ParallelCluster, Azure CycleCloud) and parallel filesystems (Lustre, NFS) are listed under 'Bonus' and are marked preferred.
No specific location is stated; the role appears to be remote-eligible based on references to distributed teams and time zones. The US export control restriction limits candidates to US persons.
The posting notes salary is 'subject to local market and candidate skills and experience,' suggesting the $160k–$180k range may vary by geography.
