Why we read it this way (4)

The salary range of $240,000–$300,000 OTE (base + bonus/commission) is cited specifically under the NYC Pay Transparency Law and applies to New York City; the posting notes compensation may vary in other geographies. The role requires West Coast US presence (California preferred), so the NYC figure may not reflect actual West Coast pay.

The title 'Cybersecurity Solutions Architect' carries no explicit seniority level word, so advertised seniority is unspecified; however, the 10+ year requirement and scope of client-facing strategic leadership support a Senior classification.

CISSP and CISM are listed as 'highly preferred' rather than required, so they are marked as preferred. AWS appears only in the opening 'Who You Are' framing paragraph alongside other vendor certifications, not in the formal Minimum Qualifications section, so it is marked preferred.

SOC code 15-1212 (Information Security Analysts) was chosen over 15-1299 because the primary day-to-day work is security architecture, threat modeling, and client security strategy — analysis-and-design work — rather than general pre-sales engineering. The runner-up 15-1299 reflects the strong pre-sales/solutions-architect dimension of the role.
