Why we read it this way (6)
The job posting explicitly states this is an on-site role in San Francisco, CA (with Seattle, WA as a secondary option) and is 'not a remote role.' The caller's instruction to set remote=true and omit the metro has been overridden by the posting's own content — remote=false and the San Francisco CBSA are reported as the JD states. Caller-supplied metadata that contradicts the job description cannot be honored under the extraction rules.
The experience range of '2–9 years' appears under 'Nice to have,' not under the required qualifications block. The overall years minimum is set to 2 as the floor of that range, but this should be treated as a soft signal rather than a hard gate.
Consumer product experience (B2C, not exclusively B2B) is called out as a dealbreaker must-have in the posting, but names no specific technology or tool, so it cannot be represented as a skill and is noted here instead.
Fintech/payments/financial services background is listed under 'Nice to have' and is not a hard requirement.
SQL appears in the narrative description of day-to-day work ('regularly use SQL and analysis tools') rather than in the formal requirements block; listed as preferred accordingly.
Caller marked this a fully-remote role — scored against the national candidate pool.
