Why we read it this way (7)
SOC classification is Medium confidence: the role is titled 'IT Systems Engineer' and its primary day-to-day work is administering and operating corporate infrastructure (identity, endpoint, network, SaaS) rather than building new software, which points to 15-1244 (Network and Computer Systems Administrators). However, the emphasis on scripting, automation, and infrastructure design introduces some overlap with 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) or even 15-1252; 15-1244 is the best fit given the operational ownership framing.
The must-have requirements are written as capability statements ('Ability to…', 'Depth in experience with…', 'Skill in…') rather than naming specific products. Concrete technologies extracted (Linux, Windows Server, virtualization, cloud, containerization, network architecture, identity/endpoint/SaaS management, scripting, access management) are the named technical domains within those statements.
Okta, Jamf, Google Workspace, SAML/SCIM, SSO, MFA, and MDM all appear exclusively under the 'Nice-to-haves' section.
SAML and SCIM are listed together as a single integration pattern ('SAML/SCIM integrations') in the nice-to-have section; they are emitted as one skill with SCIM as an alternative since they serve the same federation/provisioning function in this context.
No compensation range is disclosed in the posting.
Ignored 3 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): network architecture, endpoint management, access management.
