Why we read it this way (7)
The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's degree … or related experience,' meaning equivalent experience is explicitly accepted — no formal degree is hard-gated.
SIEM and EDR are listed as required categories with specific products named parenthetically (Splunk/Sentinel for SIEM; SentinelOne for EDR); both the category and the named tools are captured as required skills.
Firewalls are required; Palo Alto is the primary named product with Fortinet as an alternative.
Cloud platforms (AWS/Azure) appear in the responsibilities narrative rather than the Required Qualifications section, so they are marked preferred.
IDS/IPS, PAM, MFA, and DLP appear in the responsibilities section (not the Required Qualifications block) and are marked preferred accordingly.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
The title carries no seniority modifier; 3+ years required maps to Mid-level despite the strategic framing of the role.
