Why we read it this way (6)
The compensation range was not populated in the posting — the salary fields read '$ to $' with no actual figures, so no compensation range could be extracted.
The role is onsite in Arden Hills, MN (Minneapolis metro); no remote or hybrid option is offered — at least four days per week in-office is required.
The 10+ years requirement spans R&D and/or IT experience broadly, with cybersecurity in medical device or healthcare settings preferred but not strictly required.
Threat modeling, penetration testing, and application security appear in the responsibilities section rather than a formal 'Required Qualifications' block, but the JD frames them as core duties the engineer will 'support' and 'perform,' making them effectively required capabilities for the role.
NIST Special Publications and ISO standards are cited together as a single framework familiarity requirement; ISO 27001 is listed as an alternative since the JD does not specify a particular ISO standard.
Cybersecurity certifications (Security+, CISSP, CEH, CSSLP, HCISPP, Network+) are explicitly listed under Preferred Qualifications as 'a plus.'
