Why we read it this way (5)
The posting title is 'Data Engineer 5+years' with no seniority level word; the 5+ years in the title is treated as a role-level experience floor (the overall years minimum of 5), while the Required Qualifications section separately states a minimum of 3 years specifically in Power BI development and data engineering.
The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's degree … or equivalent professional experience', which means equivalent experience is accepted in lieu of a degree — the degree requirement is set to None.
The PL-300 Power BI certification is listed under Required Qualifications as 'or equivalent Microsoft certifications'; alternatives would include other relevant Microsoft data certifications (e.g. DP-600 Fabric Analytics Engineer), but the requirement itself is a hard gate.
Azure Functions, Logic Apps, PowerShell, and Python appear in the responsibilities narrative rather than under a distinct required or preferred heading; they are captured as preferred given the ambiguity.
SOC classification is Medium confidence: the role blends pipeline/warehouse building (15-1243 Database Architects) with heavy BI/reporting work (15-2031). The primary emphasis on ETL, Lakehouse architecture, and data modeling tips the classification toward 15-1243.
