Why we read it this way (9)
No work location is specified in the posting — the CBSA and state fields are left blank. The role may be remote or distributed given the reference to a 'global team,' but the posting does not explicitly state remote eligibility.
The title 'App Development Architect' carries no seniority level word, so advertised seniority is Unspecified. The requirements (5+ years overall, 3–5 years in an architect/senior leadership role) support a Senior classification.
The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's or Master's degree' but does not explicitly exclude equivalent experience, so the degree requirement is set to None per policy.
GKE is listed as 'strongly preferred' within the Kubernetes requirement bullet, so it is captured as a separate preferred skill rather than a hard gate.
Apigee is cited as an example API Gateway ('e.g., Apigee') within the required qualifications block; it is captured as preferred since the 'e.g.' framing indicates it is illustrative of the category rather than a specific gate.
Terraform and Helm are both cited as examples of Infrastructure as Code tools ('e.g., Terraform, Helm') within the required qualifications block; each is captured as preferred for the same reason, with the other listed as an alternative.
Istio/Service Mesh appears only in the narrative Roadmapping section as an emerging technology example, not in the qualifications block — captured as preferred.
Python, Node.js, Go, and C# are listed as examples of 'at least one other modern language' alongside the required Java; they are captured as a single preferred skill (Python as primary) with the others as alternatives.
The SOC classification is Medium confidence: the role is titled 'Architect' and spans both hands-on software design/development and technical leadership, which fits 15-1252 Software Developers. 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is the runner-up given the architect framing.
