“or” means any one of them counts — you don't need all of them.

Why we read it this way (10)

The role is based in the UAE (Azure UAE North/Central regions are explicitly named, and the preferred qualifications reference UAE-based Azure regions and Core42/G42 constructs), so the US-based flag is set to false and no US CBSA applies.

The title 'Cloud DevOps Engineer' carries no seniority level word, so the title states no level. However, the breadth of responsibilities — landing-zone design, regulated/sovereign cloud, MLOps/LLMOps, full release-management ownership — supports a Senior classification.

SOC 15-1252 (Software Developers) is chosen because the role's primary output is building and shipping infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD pipelines, and automation tooling — not merely operating existing systems. 15-1244 is noted as a runner-up given the significant infrastructure-operations component.

Bicep and Terraform are listed together with 'and/or' in the requirements section; both are emitted as separate must-have skills with each other as an alternative, since either alone satisfies the gate but both are named tools in the required stack.

Azure DevOps and GitHub Actions are similarly listed with 'and/or'; both emitted as must-have with each other as alternatives.

AKS and Azure Container Apps are listed with 'and/or'; AKS is the primary skill with Container Apps as an alternative.

MLOps/LLMOps is listed under Key Requirements with a 'good understanding' qualifier — retained as must-have given its placement in the required section, with LLMOps as an alternative label.

MLflow, Azure Machine Learning, Azure AI Foundry, GitOps, and Entra appear only under Preferred Qualifications or the Tech Stack narrative without firm gating language, so they are marked preferred.

No compensation, degree requirement, or employment type is stated in the posting.

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.
