Why we read it this way (7)
No work location or city is specified in the posting; Boyd Gaming operates primarily in Las Vegas, NV and other US gaming markets, but the CBSA cannot be determined from the text alone.
The role is a cloud architect/engineer hybrid — it combines hands-on infrastructure operations (EC2, S3, Lambda, VPC management) with architecture and design responsibilities. 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is used as the best fit for a Cloud Architect/Engineer role; 15-1252 (Software Developers) is a reasonable runner-up given the build-and-deploy and integration engineering duties.
The Bachelor's degree is listed as 'preferred' with 'comparable work experience acceptable,' so it is not a hard requirement.
AWS associate or professional certification 'is required' — treated as a hard gate. The specific domain (Solutions Architect, SysOps, Developer, etc.) is left open by the posting.
4+ years of enterprise architecture/design/integration experience is the stated role-level minimum; the 2–3 years of on-prem/cloud deployment experience is a secondary, overlapping requirement.
GCP, Azure, and ITIL V3 appear under the Qualifications section but with softer framing ('Knowledge of' and 'preferred' respectively), so they are marked as preferred rather than required.
The posting does not state compensation, employment type explicitly, or remote eligibility.
