Why we read it this way (10)
The role title is 'Cybersecurity Compliance Project Manager' with no seniority level in the title, hence the title states no level; the 5+ years requirement and end-to-end program ownership scope support a Senior classification.
SOC classification is Medium confidence: the role blends information security compliance (15-1212) with project/program management. 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is the runner-up given the heavy project management framing, but the primary day-to-day work centers on cybersecurity compliance analysis and governance.
NIST SP 800-171 and 800-172 are listed together in the accountabilities section; 800-172 is an enhancement to 800-171 and is captured under the 800-171 skill entry.
FAR-based requirements are mentioned alongside DFARS throughout the posting; they are captured under the DFARS skill as closely related federal acquisition regulations rather than a separate skill.
GRC tools and IRM/workflow/reporting platforms are listed under Requirements but qualified with 'familiarity with' and automation/AI experience is explicitly called 'a plus', so GRC is marked preferred.
CISM, CISSP, and PMP certifications are explicitly listed as preferred under the Requirements section; they are grouped as alternatives since the posting treats them as interchangeable preferred credentials.
A Bachelor's degree is hard-required ('Bachelor's degree required'); a Master's degree is only preferred.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): NIST SP 800-53, NIST SP 800-171.
