Why we read it this way (7)
The role requires candidates to be located in Colombia — the US-based flag is set to false accordingly, even though Blossom is a US-based company. The caller's instruction to treat this as a fully-remote, national pool should be interpreted in the Colombian context.
CloudFormation is listed as the primary IaC tool with CDK and Terraform named as explicit alternatives in the same requirement; all three are captured under one skill entry.
AWS certifications (Solutions Architect, Data Analytics, or Database Specialty) are explicitly called 'a plus' and are marked as preferred.
The role sits at the boundary between 15-1243 (Database/Data Architects — pipeline and warehouse design) and 15-1252 (Software Developers — the Python/PySpark/IaC coding emphasis). 15-1243 was chosen as primary given the dominant focus on data lake, ETL/ELT pipeline design, and AWS data infrastructure architecture.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
Caller marked this a fully-remote role — scored against the national candidate pool.
This role's work location reads as outside the US — the candidate pool, comp, and contention benchmarks here are US-only (BLS employment, Adzuna/USAJOBS demand, and certified H-1B wages), so treat them as a rough US reference, not a local market.
