Why we read it this way (7)
The JD requires a Bachelor's degree but explicitly accepts 'equivalent years of experience considered in lieu of degree' — the degree requirement is therefore set to None.
SOC classification is a genuine judgment call: the role spans cyber resilience/security (15-1212) and infrastructure/DR operations (15-1244). The cyber resilience and regulatory compliance framing edges it toward 15-1212, but the hands-on infrastructure recovery execution is a strong 15-1244 signal.
Veeam is cited as an example ('e.g., Veeam') of backup and replication technologies, but it sits under a firm requirements heading with a stated years gate — treated as a hard requirement with the understanding that equivalent backup/replication platforms would be accepted.
CDRE certification is listed as 'strongly preferred' and is therefore marked as preferred rather than required.
Academic medical center or healthcare consulting experience is 'strongly preferred' — not gated — and names no specific technology, so it is omitted from the skills list per extraction rules.
Master's degree is 'favored' (preferred), not required.
Caller marked this a fully-remote role — scored against the national candidate pool.
