Why we read it this way (5)

This role is based in New Zealand (KPMG New Zealand); US compensation benchmarks do not apply.

The SOC classification is a close call: the role primarily operates and administers endpoint infrastructure (Intune, MECM, patching, lifecycle management), pointing to 15-1244, but a significant portion of the work is vulnerability remediation and security posture improvement, which overlaps with 15-1212 Information Security Analysts. 15-1244 was chosen because the day-to-day work centres on running and maintaining the endpoint platform rather than analysing threats.

Qualys is mentioned in the day-to-day responsibilities section (vulnerability investigation) rather than a formal requirements block, but it is named as a specific tool the engineer will actively use, so it has been included as a required skill.

Azure experience is described as 'beneficial' in the requirements section, so it is marked as preferred.

Preferred certifications (Endpoint Administrator Associate, AZ-104, Windows Server Hybrid Administrator Associate, ITIL 4 Foundation) are listed under a 'Preferred certifications' heading and have not been emitted as skills, as they are certifications rather than concrete technologies and are explicitly optional.
