Why we read it this way (8)
The role title is 'Technical Architect / Data Architect' with no seniority level in the title, hence advertised seniority is Unspecified; however, the 7+ years overall and 4+ years in data architecture/technical leadership, combined with senior IC framing and ARB participation, support a Senior classification.
Databricks and Snowflake are presented as interchangeable ('expertise in one is required; both is a bonus') — emitted as a single required skill with Snowflake as the alternative.
Python is listed as 'strongly preferred' within the required Technical Expertise section; given its placement under a hard-requirements heading with firm qualifying language, it is treated as required.
Datadog is listed under required skills but qualified with 'or equivalent,' indicating the specific tool is interchangeable; marked preferred because the posting frames it as 'working knowledge' / 'experience with' rather than a hard gate, and it sits alongside several softer requirements.
The compensation range ($162,000–$262,200/year) explicitly spans all geographic markets; actual offers will vary by location.
The alt SOC 15-1252 (Software Developers) is noted because the role involves significant software architecture, reference implementation/prototyping, and platform engineering work alongside the data architecture focus.
