Why we read it this way (6)
The role blends Java application development with significant ETL/data pipeline work (DataStage-to-Informatica migration, SQL/stored procedures, analytics pipelines), making it a genuine hybrid between Software Developers (15-1252) and Database Architects (15-1243); Software Developers is chosen as primary because Java application delivery is listed first and most prominently.
All skills are drawn from the job duties section, which functions as the requirements block — no separate 'Required' or 'Nice to have' sections are present.
DataStage is listed only as the legacy system being migrated away from, not as an ongoing requirement, so it is marked preferred rather than required.
