Why we read it this way (6)
The role is primarily operational/administrative — installing, configuring, and sustaining enterprise print infrastructure — which aligns with 15-1244 (Network and Computer Systems Administrators). However, the PowerShell scripting and deployment automation emphasis introduces a software-development signal; 15-1252 is listed as the runner-up.
The degree requirement states a Bachelor's in a technical discipline is required, but explicitly allows substitution with 8 additional years of experience (13+ total). Because equivalent experience is accepted in lieu of the degree, the degree requirement is set to None.
The clearance requirement is Public Trust (not a national-security clearance tier), so the clearance requirement is set to None. Candidates must be US Citizens or Green Card holders and willing to obtain Public Trust suitability.
The 5+ years figure is the stated minimum; the degree-substitution path requires 13+ years total, but 5 years remains the floor for candidates who hold the degree.
Preferred qualifications (federal environment experience, macOS/mobile, endpoint security frameworks, medical printing, and industry certifications) are listed under an explicit 'Preferred Qualifications' heading and are marked accordingly.
