Why we read it this way (6)
The title 'Software Engineer III' maps to a Senior-level advertised seniority (a numeric III is a Senior-band claim), but the actual requirements — 4+ years of experience and a broad but not deeply specialized skill set — support a Mid-level classification.
The primary language requirement lists C#, .NET, Python, Java, or JavaScript as interchangeable options ('deep expertise in one or more'); C# is listed first and is a common UKG stack language, so it is used as the primary with the others as alternatives.
A Bachelor's degree is listed under Qualifications but is explicitly qualified with 'or equivalent practical experience,' so the degree requirement is set to None.
Cloud platform experience (Azure, AWS, GCP) and CI/CD familiarity appear under Preferred Qualifications and are marked accordingly.
JUnit and Selenium are mentioned in the responsibilities section as illustrative examples of test automation tools ('e.g., JUnit, Selenium'), not as hard gates; they are marked preferred.
No specific work location or remote policy is stated in the posting; the CBSA is left blank and remote is set to false as a conservative default.
