Why we read it this way (5)

The title 'Senior Software Engineer II' implies a leveled IC ladder; the role is presented as Senior but the 'II' suffix suggests it sits above a standard Senior — however, the scope and requirements (8+ years, single-team platform focus) are consistent with a Senior band rather than Staff.

The alt SOC (15-1244) was considered because the role involves hardware/manufacturing interfaces and infrastructure, but the primary day-to-day work is clearly building and shipping internal tooling, frameworks, APIs, and data pipelines — squarely Software Developers (15-1252).

Degree requirement is marked None because the JD explicitly accepts 'equivalent practical industry experience' in lieu of a B.S./M.S.

No compensation figures were provided in the posting.

The role is explicitly on-site at American Fork, UT (Provo-Orem CBSA); remote is not available.
