Why we read it this way (7)
No work location is specified in the posting; CBSA and state fields are left blank. Remote status is unspecified and defaulted to false.
The role blends hands-on security engineering (firewall/encryption implementation, cloud security controls) with analysis and incident response. It is classified as 15-1212 Information Security Analysts; 15-1252 Software Developers is noted as a runner-up given the 'develop and implement' engineering framing.
The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's degree … or an equivalent combination of education and experience required,' so no minimum degree is hard-gated.
Azure and AWS cloud security, endpoint protection platforms, advanced email threat protection, and WAF management are explicitly listed under the 'Technical Expertise' requirements block and are marked required. Windows Active Directory security and log analysis appear in the 'Security & Investigation Skills' requirements block and are similarly marked required.
Encryption technologies (TLS, IPsec, PGP), IDS/IPS, SIEM/log monitoring, EDR, penetration testing, Linux, and forensic investigation are drawn from the narrative 'What You'll Do' section rather than the formal requirements block, so they are marked preferred.
No compensation range is provided.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): log analysis.
