Why we read it this way (9)

The posted compensation range appears to contain a typo: '150-1800k' is almost certainly '150–180k' (base salary). The figures have been extracted as $150,000–$180,000/year on that assumption.

The job title is plain 'Software Engineer' with no level modifier; advertised seniority is treated as Unspecified. The 4–5 year experience requirement and scope (internal tooling, single team embed) support a Mid-level classification.

The posting states this is a hybrid role (SF or NYC office, 2 days/week in-person). Per caller instruction, remote=true and no metro has been set.

Work authorization requires the right to work in the US or Canada; travel to the US is required. Role is classified as US-based.

Retool is listed under 'What we're looking for' with the qualifier 'or similar internal tooling platforms', indicating it is preferred/familiar rather than a hard gate. It has been marked preferred accordingly.

AWS Bedrock and Claude appear in both the responsibilities section (with firm language: 'Leverage AWS Bedrock, and Claude') and the tech stack, supporting must-have classification.

Next.js and Tailwind CSS appear under 'Comfort working across the stack' in the requirements section; treated as hard gates despite the softer framing of 'comfort'.

OpenAI appears only in the 'Our Tech Stack' narrative section and has been omitted as a hard gate; it is stack context rather than a stated requirement.

Caller marked this a fully-remote role — scored against the national candidate pool.
