Why we read it this way (7)
The minimum qualifications offer two paths: (1) a Bachelor's degree in a relevant field plus 3 years of experience, or (2) 5 years of experience with no degree. Because a degree is not universally required, the degree requirement is set to None; the overall years minimum is set to 5 (the lower bar when no degree is held).
The advertised title is 'Senior Software Engineer', but the minimum experience gate is only 3–5 years, which aligns with a Mid-level role on a standard career ladder. The seniority band reflects the actual requirements, not the title.
State Management is listed in the 'What you'll bring' section as a named requirement alongside React Native, ReactJS, and GraphQL. No specific library (Redux, MobX, Zustand, etc.) is named, so it is captured generically.
App Store / Play Store publishing experience is explicitly called out as part of the required application lifecycle ownership in both 'What you'll do' and 'What you'll bring'.
WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility knowledge appears only under the Preferred Qualifications section and is listed as optional/valued rather than a hard gate.
The team's backend stack (Spring Boot, Java, cloud databases) is mentioned only in the 'About the team' narrative and is not listed as a requirement for this frontend role — those skills are omitted.
Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): App Store / Play Store publishing, State Management.
