Why we read it this way (6)
The role sits at the boundary between infrastructure operations (15-1244) and software/automation engineering (15-1252): it primarily administers and operates Azure, M365, and network hardware, but also requires PowerShell scripting and Terraform IaC. The primary day-to-day work is operating and maintaining existing systems, so 15-1244 was chosen; 15-1252 is the runner-up given the automation emphasis.
Terraform is explicitly called 'a plus' in the Qualifications section, so it is marked preferred. All other skills listed under Qualifications are treated as hard gates.
Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, App Insights, Microsoft Purview, Cisco Meraki, and Windows Server appear in the responsibilities narrative rather than the Qualifications requirements block, so they are marked preferred.
The degree requirement accepts 'equivalent professional experience' in lieu of a Bachelor's degree, so the degree requirement is set to None.
Relevant certifications (AZ-104, AZ-700, MS-102, Cisco CCNA) are explicitly described as 'a plus' and are not captured as skills since they are credentials rather than named technologies.
The 5-year total experience minimum is the highest role-level gate stated; the 3-year M365 and 3-year Azure requirements are technology-specific and reflected on those skills.
