Why we read it this way (7)

No work location or metro area is specified in the posting; CBSA left blank. Remote status is also unspecified — marked on-site by default.

The role sits between Data Scientist (15-2051) and Software Developer (15-1252): it emphasizes ML/deep learning/statistical modeling but also stresses designing and implementing scalable solutions and leading cross-functional teams. 15-2051 was chosen as the primary code given the explicit ML/deep learning/statistical modeling focus.

Degree requirement: the JD lists 'Bachelor's or Master's degree' as a qualification with no 'or equivalent experience' escape — Bachelor's is treated as the minimum hard requirement.

Cloud platform experience (Azure/AWS) is listed in the Qualifications section with firm language ('Experience with one or more cloud platforms'); Azure is named as the primary with AWS as an alternative. GCP added as a well-known substitute.

Git and DevOps practices are listed in the Qualifications section. 'Modern DevOps practices' is a methodology phrase with no specific tool named beyond Git, so only Git is emitted as a named skill; CI/CD is included as a preferred signal of that broader DevOps context.

Python, R, and Java are presented as interchangeable options ('Python, R, Java, or similar languages') — emitted as one skill with alternatives.

TensorFlow and PyTorch are presented as interchangeable examples ('e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch') within a required qualifications statement — emitted as one skill with PyTorch as the alternative.
