Why we read it this way (6)
The role lists three possible work locations — Charlotte, NC; Dallas, TX; and Phoenix, AZ — with no indication of which is primary. Charlotte is used as the representative CBSA; the actual location may differ.
A Bachelor's degree is listed as required but immediately qualified with 'or equivalent experience,' so no formal degree is treated as a hard gate.
The scripting/automation requirement (Python, PowerShell, Bash, Terraform) is framed as 'one or more of the following,' making the individual tools interchangeable. Python is listed as the primary skill with the others as alternatives; Terraform, PowerShell, and Bash are also emitted separately as preferred to reflect that any one satisfies the gate.
Power BI and Tableau are listed together under a required reporting section ('Build dashboards and executive reporting using Power BI, Tableau, or similar'). Power BI is the primary with Tableau as an alternative; Tableau is also emitted separately as preferred since either satisfies the requirement.
IAM is listed as a required conceptual domain ('Strong understanding of Identity & Access Management') rather than a named product; it is included because it represents a concrete, assessable technical competency central to the role.
Microsoft Office Suite appears only in the final line of Required Qualifications but is a general productivity suite rather than a security technology; it is marked preferred to reflect its peripheral relevance to the core role.
