Why we read it this way (6)
The role title is simply 'Software Engineer' with no seniority modifier; advertised seniority is therefore Unspecified. The minimum experience gate is 3 years, which maps to Mid-level on the career ladder.
The posting is a formal DOL-style job description (likely for an H-1B or PERM filing), which explains the unusually precise and exhaustive enumeration of required skills — virtually every technology listed is framed as a hard requirement with explicit year counts.
The role has a strong data-engineering flavor (Spark, Cassandra, Essbase/SSAS, Oracle, MDX analytics), making 15-1243 Database Architects a plausible runner-up, but the primary framing is full-stack software development across the SDLC.
S3, EC2, and Lambda are called out individually within the AWS requirement; they are listed as separate skills to preserve the specificity stated in the posting.
SVN is listed as an alternative to Git since the posting frames them together as version control options ('Git and SVN').
Shell scripting and Perl are listed as separate skills; the posting requires both for automating operational tasks on Linux/Unix.
