Why we read it this way (10)
SOC classification is Medium confidence: the role is titled 'Cloud Engineer' and emphasizes writing Python automation code and IaC (CloudFormation/CDK/Terraform), which points to 15-1252 Software Developers. However, it also covers operational duties (patching, monitoring, on-call, disaster recovery) that could support 15-1244. The primary day-to-day work — building pipelines, writing infrastructure code, developing internal tools — tips the balance to 15-1252.
Seniority is assessed as Mid despite the 3+ year experience gate: the compensation band ($81K–$107.5K), the scope (contributing to a team rather than owning a domain), and the absence of any lead/senior framing in the title or accountabilities all support Mid rather than Senior.
The degree requirement (Bachelor's in CS, MIS, or related field) is stated in the Requirements section with no 'or equivalent experience' escape clause, so it is treated as a hard gate.
CloudFormation, CDK, and Terraform are listed as interchangeable IaC options under a single requirement ('such as'); CloudFormation is used as the primary name with CDK and Terraform as alternatives.
Jenkins, CodePipeline, and GitHub Actions are listed as interchangeable CI/CD tool options ('such as'); Jenkins is used as the primary name with the others as alternatives.
Go, JavaScript, and Java are listed as interchangeable second-language options ('such as'); Go is used as the primary name with the others as alternatives.
Splunk appears in the narrative accountabilities section (not the Requirements block) alongside CloudWatch; it is marked preferred accordingly.
Kubernetes/ECS, AWS certifications, chaos engineering, and AI/ML tooling integration are explicitly listed as preferred in the Requirements section.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): chaos engineering.
