Microsoft 365 Security Analyst

This role sits at the boundary between 15-1212 (Information Security Analysts) and 15-1244 (Network/Systems Administrators). The primary framing is security — vulnerability remediation, data protection, compliance, and security policy — but a substantial portion of the day-to-day work is endpoint administration and device management (Intune, MDM, software deployment). 15-1212 was chosen because the security analysis, compliance, and policy responsibilities are the stated organizational purpose of the role.

The posting frames the level as 'Mid–Senior' and requires 5+ years. The scope (single-platform security administration, no org-wide architectural authority) supports Mid rather than Senior on the career ladder, despite the 'Senior' framing in the title/header.

Degree requirement: the JD states 'Bachelor's degree … or equivalent work experience,' so no hard degree gate applies.

CJIS security framework experience and government/public-safety environment experience appear only under Preferred Qualifications.

Microsoft security or endpoint management certifications are listed as preferred, not required — no specific certification is named as a hard gate.

No compensation figures were provided beyond 'Competitive salary.'

Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Windows Update for Business, Microsoft 365 Business Premium.
