Why we read it this way (6)
SOC classification is a close call: the role's primary work is ERP security administration (access control, audit support, compliance) which aligns with Information Security Analysts (15-1212), but a significant portion of the work — configuring PeopleSoft roles, permission lists, and system settings — overlaps with Computer Systems Analysts (15-1211). 15-1212 was chosen because security governance, audit support, and access management are the stated core responsibilities.
PeopleSoft HCM and FSCM are listed as 'and/or' in the required qualifications, meaning experience with at least one is a hard gate; experience with both is listed separately as a preferred qualification.
No overall years-of-experience figure is stated in the posting; seniority is inferred from the 'Senior' title and the breadth of responsibilities described.
Shell scripting and automation tools appear in the required qualifications section alongside SQL and PS Query, so they are treated as hard gates despite being somewhat broadly stated.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): PeopleSoft Security Administration.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
