Why we read it this way (6)
No work location is specified in the posting; CBSA and state are left blank. The role references both on-premises and Azure cloud environments but gives no city or region.
The skills table at the bottom of the posting marks several items as 'Required' that the narrative body places under 'Preferred Qualifications' — specifically: AZ-104/AZ-800/AZ-801 certifications, ConfigMgr/WSUS/Defender for Cloud/Sentinel/Splunk/ELK/ServiceNow/Jira, TCP/IP networking, .NET/SSO/App Gateway/WAF, and Bicep/ARM/Terraform/DSC/Ansible. The structured skills table is treated as authoritative for must-have classification, overriding the narrative 'Preferred' heading.
AZ-700 (Azure Network Engineer) is the only item explicitly marked 'Nice to have' in the skills table and is therefore classified as preferred.
The alt SOC (15-1252 Software Developers) was considered because the role includes PowerShell automation and IaC scripting, but the primary day-to-day work is operating and administering existing infrastructure (Windows Server, AD, IIS, Azure IaaS), making 15-1244 the better fit.
IRS 1075 compliance is called out as a specific responsibility, which may indicate work with federal tax data environments — relevant context for candidates.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): AZ-800/AZ-801.
