Why we read it this way (5)
The only hard-gated technical requirement is Windows Server administration (deploying, maintaining, and supporting Windows-based servers), stated in the Minimum Requirements section. All named Microsoft platform tools (SharePoint, Hyper-V, Active Directory, IIS, Always On VPN, MSSQL, System Center), TeamDynamix, and Oracle appear exclusively under 'Desired Qualifications' and are therefore preferred.
The degree requirement is effectively None: the posting explicitly accepts 'an equivalent combination of education and experience' in lieu of a four-year degree.
Total experience range stated is 1–3 years; 1 year is used as the minimum.
The role title 'Server/Network Administrator' and the work breakdown (40% server, 15% network, 25% application administration) most closely align with 15-1244 Network and Computer Systems Administrators. The significant application/Microsoft platform administration component creates some ambiguity with 15-1211 Computer Systems Analysts, noted as the runner-up.
