Why we read it this way (4)
The coding requirement lists Rust as preferable, with Python and PHP as alternatives — all three are named in the Requirements section, so the capability is a hard gate; Rust is the preferred flavor but any of the three satisfies it.
Okta and CrowdStrike Falcon appear under the explicit 'Bonus (Great to have, but not required)' heading.
The role is remote-first but requires travel to the San Jose, CA office up to three times per year plus one company-wide offsite; it is not fully office-free.
Compensation includes a performance bonus on top of the stated base salary range; total comp will exceed the listed figures.
