Why we read it this way (7)
The role is titled 'Senior SQA Engineer' but also referred to as 'Test Engineer' throughout the body — the seniority assessment is based on the 'Senior' title framing.
Q-SYS is both the product platform being tested and the framework used for test automation; proficiency in it is explicitly listed as a required skill.
The posting requires a B.S. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field with no 'or equivalent experience' language, so a Bachelor's degree is treated as a hard requirement.
No compensation range is stated in the posting.
The role is explicitly located in Boulder, CO (on-site scrum team participation is mentioned), with after-hours meetings with a global camera manufacturer — remote work is not offered.
Several skills (camera lens testing, auto exposure, autofocus, optical error, video latency) are domain-specific testing competencies rather than named tools; they are captured under the broader camera/video testing skill entries rather than as separate generic concepts.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): camera image signal processing testing.
