Why we read it this way (7)
The posting states 'A bachelor's degree … or a closely related field' but immediately follows with 'An equivalent combination of education and experience may be considered,' so no formal degree is hard-gated.
The 3-year experience requirement is stated against the role overall (network/system administrator), not a specific technology, so it is captured as the role-level minimum rather than per-skill years.
NIST 800-53, CJIS, and CIS Controls appear in the required functions/skills section as compliance areas the role must assist with; they are treated as hard gates accordingly.
Azure, DNS, LDAP, SAN/NAS, OSPF, SNMP, SSH, and CCNA all appear under the 'Preferred Qualifications' heading and are therefore not hard gates.
The CJIS background check is a screening/background requirement, not a US government security clearance in the federal sense; the clearance requirement is set to None.
An alt SOC of 15-1212 (Information Security Analysts) is noted because the role has a meaningful cybersecurity component (zero trust, incident response, NIST/CJIS/CIS compliance), though the primary day-to-day work is network and systems administration.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): patch management.
