We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.

Why we read it this way (9)

This is a General Manager / business unit head role with full P&L ownership, people management, and strategic direction — the primary day-to-day work is executive leadership of a software business unit, making 11-3021 (Computer and Information Systems Managers) the closest fit. However, the role is as much a general business executive as a tech manager; non-technology is a genuine runner-up.

Seniority is assessed as Principal: this is a top-of-ladder, org-wide executive role (GM with full P&L, reporting to the CEO, with board-level reporting responsibilities) — well above a typical Senior or Staff scope.

The title carries no explicit seniority level word, so the title states no level.

Degree requirement is None: the posting accepts 'equivalent experience' in lieu of a formal degree.

Domain knowledge in geomechanics, rock engineering, engineering geology, or hydrogeology is listed under 'What You Bring' but framed as a field of study option rather than a hard gate on domain expertise; mining/civil/energy industry experience is explicitly called 'a plus,' so those are marked preferred.

No specific software tools or platforms are named as requirements; the skills extracted reflect the concrete business capabilities the JD gates on.

The role requires on-site/hybrid presence in Minneapolis; relocation assistance is offered. Remote is false.

Up to 10% travel is expected.

Ignored 4 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): P&L management, business development, sales and marketing team management, change management.
