Why we read it this way (5)
This role is a medical device / combination product Systems Engineer — it is not a software or IT occupation in the traditional sense. SOC 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is used as the closest available code for a systems engineering discipline that spans hardware, software, and regulatory compliance; 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) is noted as a plausible alternative given the systems analysis and requirements-definition focus.
No work location is specified in the posting beyond 'US & Puerto Rico'; no CBSA or state could be determined.
The experience requirement is stated as a range tied to degree level (12 yrs BS / 10 yrs MS / 4 yrs PhD); 10 years is used as the minimum (Master's path), which is the lowest stated threshold.
No compensation figures are disclosed despite the posting referencing a pay-disclosure range — the actual numbers were not included in the text.
Requirements management tools and V-model are listed as required but no specific named tool (e.g., DOORS, Polarion) is identified in the posting.
