Why we read it this way (10)

This is a 6-month contract-to-hire engagement; candidates must be able to convert to FTE without visa sponsorship.

Two professional references are required at the time of submission.

The JD explicitly states 'A formal degree is not required' — the degree requirement is set to None accordingly.

AWS is listed under Preferred Qualifications with 'cloud platforms' as an open-ended alternative; Azure and GCP are noted as common substitutes.

Kubernetes and Terraform appear together under Preferred Qualifications as 'containerization, Kubernetes, or infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform' — treated as preferred/optional.

Claude and Codex are listed together as examples of AI development tools under Preferred Qualifications; Codex is captured as an alternative since the JD presents them interchangeably.

Healthcare technology, clinical laboratory, or genomics domain experience is listed as preferred but names no specific technology, so it is omitted from the skills list per extraction rules.

No compensation figures were provided in the posting.

Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.

This posting reads as a fully-remote role, so it was scored against the national candidate pool rather than a single metro.
