Why we read it this way (8)
The role is based in Latin America (remote), not in the United States — the client is US-based but the worker location is explicitly LATAM. The US-based flag is set to false accordingly; no CBSA applies.
The posting is for a long-term contract engagement ('long-term project') through a staffing/consulting firm (4tech), so employment type is treated as Contract.
Compensation is stated as 'in USD' with no specific figures provided.
The 2+ years of experience leading testing activities is a stated requirement but names no specific technology, so it is captured in the overall years minimum (3 years, the highest role-level floor stated) rather than as a skill.
Bachelor's degree is listed under 'Bonus Points' (preferred), so the degree requirement is set to None.
Jira, iOS, Android, Roku, and video content delivery experience all appear under 'Bonus Points' and are marked as preferred.
The seniority is assessed as Mid: the role requires 3+ years of experience and 2+ years leading testing activities, but the scope is a single-team QA contributor role with no indication of cross-team or org-wide technical authority.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
