What the occupation pays Median $99,130 (middle half $78,010–$126,640).

Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 28, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.

Why we read it this way (7)

The posting is titled 'Network Engineer' but the day-to-day work (installing, configuring, and maintaining customer network hardware; field service support) aligns most closely with Network and Computer Systems Administrators (15-1244). Computer Network Architects (15-1241) is a plausible runner-up given the design/architecture language, but the field-service, hands-on installation framing tips the balance toward 15-1244.

A Bachelor's degree is listed as 'preferred,' not required, and equivalent experience is explicitly accepted — so no minimum degree is set.

The hard minimum experience gate is '1 year in field service support'; the '3+ years in network architecture and deployment' is framed as 'highly desired,' so it is treated as preferred. The 1-year gate drives the overall years minimum.

Network certifications (Network+, Cisco, Aruba, Meraki, Extreme, Fortinet, CompTIA, HP) are described as 'highly desired' — treated as preferred. They are grouped as alternatives since the posting presents them as interchangeable options.

Fiber/CAT cabling knowledge is explicitly called 'a plus' — treated as preferred.

No compensation figures are provided beyond a general reference to a 'competitive salary and benefits package.'

Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): network architecture.
