Why we read it this way (9)
The JD requires a B.S. in Computer Science or Engineering with no 'or equivalent experience' escape clause, so the degree requirement is set to Bachelors.
React is listed as 'React and/or React-like frameworks' — alternatives capture common React-like substitutes (Vue, Angular), but React is the named anchor and is a hard gate.
REST and GraphQL are presented as 'RESTful and/or GraphQL APIs' — treated as interchangeable alternatives on a single hard-gated requirement.
CI/CD is gated with 'e.g., GitLab' as an illustrative example; GitLab CI is captured as an alternative rather than the sole required tool.
Relational and NoSQL databases are presented as 'and/or', so treated as a single requirement with NoSQL as an alternative.
Applied AI / LLM usage is explicitly gated with firm language ('must demonstrate measurable impact from AI usage') and sits in the requirements block — treated as a hard gate.
Preferred experience (SaaS/enterprise scale, compliance/financial domains, cross-team technical leadership) is listed under a clearly secondary 'Preferred Experience' heading and is not emitted as required skills.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
