Why we read it this way (8)
This role is a genuine hybrid of people management (hiring, performance management, career development of DevOps Engineers and DBAs) and deep hands-on technical work (owning CI/CD pipelines and SQL Server operations directly). 11-3021 was chosen because the primary framing is a Technical Manager with direct reports and a team roadmap; 15-1244 is the runner-up given the substantial hands-on DBA and infrastructure operations scope.
The job title 'Engineering Manager' carries no explicit seniority level word, so the title states no level. The 8+ years of engineering experience plus 2+ years of people management support a Senior band.
Location is not explicitly stated in the posting, but iCapital is headquartered in New York, NY, and the role is described as office-based Monday–Thursday; New York CBSA is used.
The degree requirement accepts 'equivalent experience' in lieu of a Bachelor's degree, so the degree requirement is set to None.
Monitoring/alerting platforms (Dynatrace, Datadog, Azure Monitor) are listed in the required qualifications section as examples ('like'); they are treated as a single hard-gated skill with alternatives.
DevSecOps practices, secrets management, Azure Key Vault, HashiCorp Vault, FinOps, PostgreSQL/MySQL/MongoDB migrations, and ServiceNow/Jira Service Management all appear under the qualifications section but are framed with softer language ('Familiar with', 'Exposure to', 'Experience integrating') — treated as preferred.
Scripting languages PowerShell, Python, and Bash are listed together as a single requirement; Python and Bash are captured as alternatives to PowerShell.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): People management.
