Why we read it this way (6)
This role sits at the boundary between SRE/DevOps (infrastructure building, CI/CD, observability) and software development (cache layers, backend fundamentals, system design). The primary framing — building infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and observability tooling with Terraform and AWS — points to 15-1252 Software Developers (the role SHIPS infrastructure-as-code and automation), with 15-1244 as a plausible runner-up.
The posting lists a separate equity grant range of $70,000–$100,000 in addition to the base salary of $220,000–$350,000. Only the base salary is captured in the compensation fields.
OpenTelemetry is listed in the requirements section as 'Experience in observability (open telemetry)' and also appears in the responsibilities as the observability standard to build to — treated as a hard gate.
PostgreSQL is mentioned only in a cultural/philosophy narrative ('we use Postgres until it breaks') — not as a formal requirement or preferred skill, but included as preferred given it reflects the team's actual stack.
Active GitHub presence and hands-on backend development/system design appear under 'Nice to have' and are marked preferred accordingly.
The 5+ years total experience requirement is tied to 'scalability and improvements' at the role level, captured in the overall years minimum. The 3+ years Terraform and 5+ years AWS requirements are technology-specific and captured on those skills.
