Why we read it this way (7)
The role is titled 'Founding Engineer' with a frontend focus but full-stack expectations (Golang backend, PostgreSQL, AWS). No seniority level is stated in the title, so advertised seniority is Unspecified; the 3+ year frontend requirement and 1+ year compiled-language requirement support a Mid-level classification.
React, Next.js, Vue, and Angular are listed together as interchangeable examples of the required frontend experience — emitted as one skill with alternatives. Similarly, Golang, Java, Rust, TypeScript, and C/C++ are listed as interchangeable examples of the compiled/statically-typed language requirement.
webpack is explicitly named in the requirements list alongside the other frontend technologies and is retained as a separate required skill.
PostgreSQL and AWS appear only in the 'Tech Stack' narrative section, not in the Requirements block — treated as preferred/stack context.
CI/CD is listed under 'Nice to Haves' — marked preferred accordingly.
A Bachelor's degree in CS is listed under 'Nice to Haves' and explicitly allows equivalent experience — the degree requirement is None.
Prior healthcare industry experience and prior startup experience are listed as nice-to-haves but name no concrete technology, so they are omitted from the skills list per extraction rules.
