Why we read it this way (6)
The role is titled 'Software Engineer II', which maps to a Mid-level band; the 5-year minimum experience requirement is consistent with that level.
The degree requirement is effectively None: the JD explicitly accepts 'in lieu of a degree, a combined minimum of 7 years higher education and/or work experience' as an alternative to the Associates degree.
The posting explicitly excludes C2C, C2H, 1099, and visa sponsorship/transfer — this is a direct-hire, W-2 full-time role, though employment type is inferred from context.
The JD lists Angular, C# .NET Core, Web API, Azure, and SQL Server together in a parenthetical as the full-stack stack under the qualifications section — all treated as hard gates.
There is a runner-up SOC of 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) because the responsibilities heavily emphasize systems analysis, functional specifications, and consulting alongside development work.
The posting contains an AI-detection phrase ('include the words wild, wild west and rhinoceros') embedded in the qualifications — this is an anti-AI-resume screening mechanism and has no bearing on the extracted requirements.
