Why we read it this way (7)
The posting lists five possible work locations (Pittsburgh PA, Farmers Branch TX, Strongsville OH, Birmingham AL, Phoenix AZ); Pittsburgh is used as the primary CBSA since it appears first and is referenced in the requisition number.
The role is explicitly Contract to Hire, classified here as Contract.
Java appears in both the Must Have section (as 'Python and/or Java') and the Nice to Have section as a standalone item. Because it is listed as an alternative to Python in the required section, it is captured as a separate preferred skill reflecting the Nice to Have framing for Java on its own; Python is the clearly primary required language.
Agile development experience is listed under Must Have; no specific tooling is gated, so it is captured as a methodology requirement rather than a named tool.
A Bachelor's degree is listed as 'preferred' and equivalent work experience is explicitly accepted, so no hard degree requirement is set.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
