Why we read it this way (7)
This role is titled 'Principal Solution Architect' and carries genuine org-wide, cross-functional technical authority (chairs the Architecture Review Board, sets standards across all technology functions, reports to the CTO) — the Principal seniority band is warranted on scope, not just title.
SOC 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is used because 'Enterprise/Solution Architect' spans ERP, integration, data, AI, and security strategy in a way that doesn't map cleanly to any single BLS occupation; 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) is the closest runner-up.
Dynamics 365 experience is stated as 'direct hands-on architectural experience… at scale' — a hard gate. Shopify is 'strongly preferred' but sits in the required qualifications block alongside 'comparable modern commerce platforms also considered'; the alternatives field captures those substitutes.
Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake, and Databricks are listed together as 'or comparable' options for the data platform requirement — emitted as one skill (Microsoft Fabric) with the others as alternatives.
Compliance regimes (NIS2, FSSC 22000, ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, CCPA) appear in the main responsibilities section as 'partner with' and 'ensure compliance' duties, but direct experience with them is listed under the 'Preferred Experience' heading — marked preferred accordingly.
The role is hybrid (3x/week in-office in Jersey City, NJ) — not fully remote.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): API-first design.
