Why we read it this way (7)
The role is on-site in Fort Myers, FL — no remote work is offered.
The degree requirement is a Bachelor's in Computer Science with 3 years of experience, but the JD explicitly accepts an 'equivalent combination of education, training, and experience,' so no formal degree is hard-gated.
Windows Server and Active Directory appear under the Requirements section with 'desired' language; however, they are placed within the hard requirements block and represent the core technical knowledge the role is built around, so they are treated as required gates.
All networking and infrastructure tools (DNS, DHCP, VPN, Extreme Networks, Cisco IOS, Nutanix, Veritas Backup Exec, HYCU, NetMotion, Cisco UCS, RADIUS, TACACS, Wi-Fi, LAN/WAN) appear under a 'Preferred skills' heading and are therefore preferred, not required.
Veritas Backup Exec and HYCU are listed together as backup solutions in the preferred section; HYCU is captured as an alternative to Veritas Backup Exec since both serve the same backup function.
A valid Florida Driver's License is required per the JD but is not a technical skill and is not represented in the skills list.
The alternative occupation code runner-up (15-1252) was considered briefly but the role's primary day-to-day work is operating and maintaining existing infrastructure rather than building software, making 15-1244 the clear primary.
