Why we read it this way (5)
The role is classified as Software Developers (15-1252) rather than Systems Admins (15-1244) because the JD centers on building, designing, and deploying infrastructure-as-code, automation, and tooling — not merely operating existing systems. 15-1244 is noted as a runner-up given the on-call/incident-response and monitoring responsibilities.
ArgoCD, Helm, GitHub Actions, and Grafana appear only in the 'What technologies will you work with?' stack narrative section, not in the formal Requirements block, so they are marked preferred.
Terraform is listed in Requirements with the qualifier 'such as', indicating IaC experience is a hard gate; Terraform is the named tool and is marked required accordingly.
The base salary range of $150,000–$200,000/year is stated explicitly; a performance bonus is also mentioned but not quantified.
The role is fully remote but requires travel to the San Jose, CA office up to three times per year plus one company-wide offsite; CBSA reflects the San Jose metro as the anchor location.
