Why we read it this way (6)
The SOC classification is a close call: the role's primary day-to-day work is writing T-SQL data conversion scripts (ETL/transformation), which sits between Database Administrators (15-1242) and Software Developers (15-1252). The scripting and ETL emphasis nudged the call toward 15-1242, but 15-1252 is a credible alternative.
The Jenzabar (or equivalent higher education SIS) requirement is stated as required ('is required') in the Skills and Experience section. Alternatives listed are the most common competing higher-ed SIS platforms a hiring manager would likely accept.
Stored procedures and indexing/script optimization are called out explicitly within the 5+ years T-SQL requirement and are treated as part of that hard gate rather than separate skills.
A Bachelor's degree is listed but the posting explicitly accepts 'equivalent experience,' so no minimum degree is flagged.
The $60,000–$75,000/year range is stated with a note that actual base pay may vary by location, knowledge, and skills; an annual bonus is also mentioned.
