Why we read it this way (4)
The posting carries the internal level designation 'IC3' (Individual Contributor 3), which at Oracle typically maps to a mid-level engineer. The title itself ('Software Developer' or equivalent) carries no explicit seniority word, so the title states no level; the scope described (bounded platform components, team-level improvements, moderately complex issues) supports a Mid classification.
ChatGPT Codex (or a comparable AI coding agent) is listed under a dedicated requirements-style section with firm language ('Experience with…', 'Ability to…', 'Familiarity with…') and is treated as a hard gate. The 'or comparable AI coding agents' qualifier means the specific tool is interchangeable, but the capability itself is required.
No specific programming languages, cloud platforms, or database technologies are named anywhere in the posting — the skills extracted reflect only the concrete technical capabilities explicitly called out.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): SDK development.
