Why we read it this way (8)
The title is 'Lead Engineer' with no seniority level word; the title states no level. The actual requirements (8–10 years, end-to-end ownership, mentoring junior engineers) support a Senior classification.
The degree requirement is 'Bachelor's degree … or equivalent experience', so no hard degree gate is set.
MongoDB, Elasticsearch, DataDog, and Kafka are listed together as a group requiring 'at least one' — MongoDB is emitted as the primary required skill with Elasticsearch and Kafka as alternatives; DataDog is emitted separately as preferred since it is the odd-one-out monitoring tool in that group and the 'at least one' framing makes any single member optional.
React is listed alongside 'TypeScript or another modern web framework' — React and TypeScript are emitted as separate required skills (both named explicitly); the 'or another modern web framework' qualifier is captured via alternatives on React.
Terraform and CloudFormation are listed as interchangeable ('Terraform or CloudFormation') — emitted as one required skill with CloudFormation as the alternative.
Test frameworks (Cypress, Jest, Mocha, JUnit, Cucumber) and Groovy/Micronaut appear explicitly under 'is a plus' language — marked as preferred.
Healthcare/life sciences experience is called out as 'a plus, but not required' — omitted from skills as it names no specific technology.
Caller marked this a fully-remote role — scored against the national candidate pool.
