Why we read it this way (6)
The role is a hybrid cloud platform engineering position requiring 3 days on-site (Tue/Wed/Thu) at Temple Health Women's and Families Hospital in Philadelphia, PA — not fully remote.
A Bachelor's degree in a relevant field is listed as Preferred, not Required; the hard minimum is a High School Diploma or equivalent, so no degree is treated as a hard gate.
The two required Azure certifications (Azure Solutions Architect and DevOps Engineer Expert) are listed under the Licenses section as Required. The Azure Security Engineer and Azure Security Architect certifications are listed as Preferred in the same section.
The posting notes that 'equivalent certifications from other major cloud platforms may be considered,' which is why AWS and GCP are listed as alternatives to Azure — the underlying cloud platform requirement is hard-gated, but the specific platform is somewhat flexible.
SOC classification is Medium confidence: the role spans both building/architecting cloud solutions (pointing to 15-1252 Software Developers) and operating/administering cloud infrastructure (pointing to 15-1244).
