Why we read it this way (8)
The posting lists three possible work locations — Pittsburgh, PA; Dallas, TX; and Cleveland, OH — with no remote option stated. Pittsburgh is used as the primary CBSA since the staffing firm's reference code explicitly cites Pittsburgh.
Employment type is Contract-to-Hire, classified here as Contract.
The '2+ years' experience requirement is stated at the role level (software development with Agentic AI experience), so it is captured as the overall minimum experience rather than tied to any single technology.
Azure AI Foundry and AWS Bedrock are listed together as a paired requirement throughout the posting; the role clearly gates on one or the other cloud AI platform, so they are represented as a single requirement with alternatives.
LangChain, LangGraph, MCP Server, and Semantic Kernel appear in the Responsibilities section (not the Requirements section) as illustrative framework examples, so they are marked preferred rather than required.
RAG pipelines also appear only in Responsibilities, not in the Requirements block, and are marked preferred accordingly.
No compensation figures are provided.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
