Why we read it this way (10)
The role is titled 'Data Warehouse Developer' but the responsibilities center on designing integration architectures, data modeling, EHR data mappings, and pipeline development — work that maps most closely to Database Architects (15-1243). Database Administrators (15-1242) is the runner-up given the database management and performance-monitoring duties.
The position is grant-funded with current funding expiring 12/31/2030 (with possible extension), which is worth noting for candidates evaluating long-term stability.
A Bachelor's degree is listed as a requirement but the posting explicitly accepts 'equivalent work experience' in lieu of a degree, so no minimum degree is flagged as a hard gate.
The 3-year experience requirement is tied specifically to ETL design/development with clinical EHR data, which is treated as the role-level minimum.
All AWS service specifics (S3, Glue, SageMaker, Lake Formation, Lambda, Athena, Redshift, EMR) and all BI/database/ETL platform names appear under the 'preferred skills' section and are marked accordingly.
Python and R are listed together as a single preferred item; SQL is listed alongside them but is a distinct technology and is emitted separately.
The ETL technology list (AWS Glue, SSIS, DataStage, Informatica) is presented as interchangeable options under preferred qualifications; AWS Glue is used as the primary with the others as alternatives.
The database/virtualization technology list (Snowflake, Apache Spark, Databricks, Hadoop, Cloudera, SQL Server, Oracle, Alteryx, Denodo) is similarly a preferred, interchangeable set.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): data integration architecture.
This posting reads as a fully-remote role, so it was scored against the national candidate pool rather than a single metro.
