Why we read it this way (6)

The role blends data warehouse architecture/ETL pipeline design (15-1243) with deep Azure SQL DBA work — performance tuning, index/statistics management, execution-plan analysis, and observability (15-1242). 15-1243 was chosen as primary because designing and building the enterprise data warehouse and pipelines is the dominant deliverable; 15-1242 is the close runner-up given the explicit 5+ years SQL Server/Azure SQL DBA requirement.

The compensation range ($100,000–$170,000/year) is disclosed under Colorado's Equal Pay Act and may not reflect pay for candidates in other states.

SQL Server and Azure SQL are listed together as a single requirement ('SQL Server / Azure SQL DBA'); Azure SQL is captured as an alternative.

Microsoft Fabric (notebooks, Lakehouse, Warehouse), KQL, and Log Analytics appear with softer language ('working familiarity', 'where appropriate') in the requirements section — treated as preferred given the hedged framing.

No degree requirement is stated anywhere in the posting.
