Why we read it this way (6)

The posting lists multiple US locations (Phoenix AZ, New York NY, Washington state, Sunrise FL) plus a remote/virtual option; Phoenix is used as the primary CBSA but the role is genuinely multi-location and remote-eligible.

The job title includes 'Senior Software Engineer I', which is an internal leveling designation at American Express; the role is treated as Senior for seniority purposes.

The degree requirement is listed as 'High School Graduate' in the job metadata, so no bachelor's degree is hard-gated.

All technologies listed under the 'Strong hands-on experience building modern web applications' block are treated as required, as that block sits within the Qualifications/Requirements section with firm language ('strong hands-on experience'). JSON Schema appears only in the Responsibilities section with 'or similar approaches' framing, so it is marked preferred.

The salary range of $123,000–$215,250 annually is stated explicitly and includes bonus and benefits on top.

Expo (the React Native toolchain) is named in the posting but is a deployment mode/sub-tooling of React Native rather than a separately marketed standalone product in this context; it is captured under React Native rather than as a separate skill.
