Why we read it this way (6)
The JD names no specific programming language, framework, or platform — the only concrete technical requirements are years of software development experience, design/architecture experience, and distributed systems work. The skills list reflects only what is genuinely named.
A Bachelor's degree in computer science is listed under Preferred Qualifications with 'or equivalent,' so it is not treated as a hard degree requirement.
Generative AI tools appear only under Preferred Qualifications and are listed as preferred, not required.
Tech lead / mentorship experience is listed as a Basic Qualification ('Experience as a mentor, tech lead or leading an engineering team') but names no specific technology, so it is captured in the seniority assessment rather than as a named skill.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): software development, system design.
