Why we read it this way (6)
The role title 'Software Engineering Advisor' carries no standard seniority level word, so the title states no level; the 5+ years overall and 5+ years Teradata requirements support a Senior classification.
SOC classification is a genuine judgment call: the role centers on building and optimizing data pipelines, ETL, and data warehouse modernization (pointing to 15-1243 Database Architects / Data Engineers), but the emphasis on software engineering practices, CI/CD, and Python automation also fits 15-1252 Software Developers — 15-1252 is listed as the runner-up.
A Bachelor's degree appears only under 'Preferred Qualifications', so the degree requirement is set to None.
AWS services (S3, Glue, Lambda, EC2) are listed together as examples under a single required bullet; each is captured as a separate required skill per the posting's explicit enumeration.
Airflow is listed under 'Preferred Qualifications' ('familiarity with workflow scheduling and orchestration platforms such as Airflow') and is therefore marked preferred.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
