Why we read it this way (3)
The JD requires in-office work in New York City; remote is not offered.
React and TypeScript are the only named technologies explicitly called out in the requirements section. The posting describes a full-stack role but names no specific back-end languages, frameworks, or databases — no additional tools could be extracted without invention.
Leadership/mentoring experience is framed as a preference ('enjoy helping others level up') rather than a hard gate, so it is not captured as a required skill.
