Why we read it this way (5)
The title 'Lead Software Engineer' maps to Senior seniority: the role involves mentoring junior/mid engineers and leading technical design, but the JD describes a hands-on IC role with no people-management or direct-report responsibilities, so 11-3021 is not appropriate.
The CI/CD pipeline requirement (Azure DevOps, GitHub Enterprise, EPLX, or Harness) is listed in Required Qualifications with a 1+ year gate; EPLX is a Wells Fargo-internal platform and is not a widely known external tool, so it is captured via the named alternatives.
MVVM and data binding are design patterns/practices tied to WPF rather than standalone named tools, so they are not emitted as separate skills.
AI-assisted development tools appear only in Desired Qualifications with no specific product named, so no skill is emitted.
The role is hybrid (not fully remote) at the Charlotte, NC location; visa sponsorship and relocation are not available.
