Why we read it this way (8)

The posting requires local Arizona residents only; the role is hybrid (first 2–3 days on-site, then once a month). Despite the note 'Flexible work from home options available' at the end, this is not fully remote.

The 3-year overall experience requirement comes from the Required Skills section ('3 years of experience as a QA Automation Engineer'); the Position Summary refines this to '3–5 years in QA Automation, with at least 2–3 years focused specifically on the Salesforce platform' — the Salesforce-specific years demanded of 2 is set on the Salesforce skill accordingly.

Java, JavaScript, Python, and C# are listed as a group under Required Skills with 'strong experience' language; Java is emitted as the primary skill with the others as alternatives since the JD treats them as interchangeable options.

All automation tools (Provar, Selenium, Playwright, UTAM, Cucumber/BDD), API tools (Postman, RestAssured, SoapUI), and DevOps tools (Jira, GitHub/GitLab, Jenkins, Copado, AutoRABIT) appear under the Preferred Skills heading and are marked accordingly.

Cypress and GitHub Actions appear only in the Position Summary narrative (not in the Required or Preferred Skills sections) and are marked as preferred.

The Job ID suffix '(Hybrid/Local)' and client reference 'AZDES - DTS' suggest this is a government staffing/contract engagement; employment type is classified as Contract.

No compensation figures are provided in the posting.

Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
