Why we read it this way (8)
All skills appear under a single 'Desired Skills' section — the posting does not split them into required vs. preferred blocks. CI/CD is the one exception: it is also called out in the body narrative with firm language ('CI/CD best practices') as a core competency gate, so it is marked required. All other named technologies are treated as preferred per the 'Desired Skills' heading.
The experience gate is stated as '3+ years of DevOps/SRE/production support experience OR 5+ years of Software Engineering experience' — 3 years is used as the overall years minimum (the lower of the two paths).
The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's degree… or equivalent experience', so no formal degree is hard-gated.
Bash, PowerShell, and Python are all listed as scripting options; Bash is emitted as the primary with PowerShell and Python as alternatives. PowerShell and Python are also emitted separately since they appear as distinct named tools in the desired skills list.
Angular, React, and Vue.js appear to represent front-end framework familiarity rather than a core DevOps gate; Angular is emitted as primary with React and Vue.js as alternatives.
AWS sub-services (EC2, S3, Lambda, CodeDeploy, ECR) are consolidated under AWS rather than emitted as separate skills, as they describe the AWS platform breadth rather than distinct tool gates.
The role is classified as Software Developers (15-1252) because the JD emphasizes building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, automating deployment processes, and writing infrastructure automation — i.e., shipping code — rather than purely operating existing infrastructure. 15-1244 is noted as a plausible alternative given the operational monitoring and support responsibilities.
