Why we read it this way (8)
No work location is specified in the posting — CBSA and state are left blank. The role requires up to 30% travel, suggesting it is office- or site-based rather than fully remote.
The degree requirement lists a Bachelor's in a relevant field 'or equivalent experience,' so it is treated as not a hard degree gate.
The posting lists salary fields ('Job Posting Min Salary / Job Posting Max Salary') but provides no actual figures.
The 12+ years figure is for software project management experience specifically; the 5+ years figure is for people leadership. The higher overall experience bar (12 years) is used as the overall years minimum.
Jira, Azure DevOps, and Team Foundation Server are listed as interchangeable options in the qualifications section; they are captured as a single skill with alternatives.
Microsoft Project and Project Web App are listed together and treated as a single skill with the alternative noted.
Domain knowledge items (WCS, WMS, WES, ASRS, PLC communications, conveyor systems) are listed under the required qualifications block and are captured as required skills, as they represent concrete named technologies/systems the role gates on.
The alternative occupation code 15-1299 is noted as a distant runner-up only — this role is primarily a people-management and portfolio-ownership position, making 11-3021 clearly the best fit.
