Why we read it this way (7)
This role sits at the intersection of physical security consulting and IT systems engineering — it primarily involves reviewing and evaluating enterprise access control system designs rather than building software, making 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) the best available fit; 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) is a plausible runner-up given the design-review and technology-evaluation focus.
The degree requirement lists 'or equivalent experience' as an explicit alternative, so no minimum degree is flagged as a hard gate.
The named access control platforms (LenelS2, Software House C•CURE, Genetec Security Center, AMAG, Gallagher, Avigilon Unity Access) all appear under a 'Preferred Experience' heading and are treated as preferred.
Certifications (LenelS2 Certified Professional, Genetec Certified Engineer, PSP, BICSI, CCNA) are all listed under 'Preferred Certifications'; CCNA is additionally noted as '(preferred)' inline. Only CCNA is surfaced as a skill given it is a concrete, named technical credential; the others are certifications rather than technology skills.
Video surveillance and intrusion detection systems appear in the responsibilities narrative (assessing integration) rather than in a dedicated requirements block; they are treated as preferred/contextual rather than hard gates.
No compensation range is stated in the posting.
Ignored 3 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): enterprise access control software, low-voltage security systems, Software House C•CURE.
