Why we read it this way (6)

The job title header states 'Charlotte NC' but the posting footer lists 'Columbia, SC' as the location. Charlotte-Concord-Gastonia CBSA is used as the primary metro given the title prominence and the hybrid/day-one-onsite framing; hiring managers should confirm the actual work site.

The 5–10 year overall experience range maps to the overall years minimum of 5; the posting also separately requires 2–4 years specifically in Generative AI/LLM development.

ECS and EKS appear together in the required skills list as a paired item; EKS is captured as an alternative since either container orchestration platform satisfies the requirement.

A Bachelor's or Master's degree is listed under Preferred Qualifications only, so no hard degree requirement is set.

AWS certifications (ML Engineer, AI Practitioner) are listed as preferred, not required, and are not captured as skills since they are credentials rather than technologies.

Finetuning and Model Evaluation appear in the required skills section as capabilities rather than named tools, so they are not emitted as discrete skills.
