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

Why we read it this way (7)
This role is an industrial/electrical controls engineering position — it does not map cleanly to any standard computer/mathematical SOC code. 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is used as the closest available code; 15-1252 (Software Developers) is noted as an alternative given the PLC/robot programming emphasis, but neither is a precise fit for an industrial automation engineer.
The job location is not explicitly stated in the posting. Clayton's manufacturing headquarters is in Maryville, TN; the role references 'multiple sites,' so travel is implied but the primary base is assumed to be TN.
The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or related field … preferred,' which technically softens it; however, the phrasing is in the Qualifications block alongside other hard gates and reads as a baseline expectation rather than a pure preference — flagged here for the hiring manager's awareness.
Experience range of 6–10 years is stated as 'preferred' in the qualifications block; the overall years minimum is set to 6 (the lower bound) as the practical floor.
Siemens, Beckhoff, and Mitsubishi PLCs are explicitly listed as 'preferred' in the qualifications section, as is IIoT/data acquisition exposure.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Allen-Bradley / Studio 5000.
