Why we read it this way (5)
The role blends HPC software development (primary) with HPC user support and system troubleshooting, which creates some ambiguity between Software Developers (15-1252) and Network/Systems Admins (15-1244); the software development and codebase ownership duties are the stronger signal.
Fortran, C, and C++ are listed together with 'and/or', indicating at least one is required; all three are captured as required with each listed as an alternative for the others.
Bash and Korn shell are listed together as a single scripting requirement; Bash is the primary name with Korn shell as the alternative.
Seniority is assessed as Senior based on the code review, mentoring, and training design responsibilities, despite no explicit level being stated in the title or posting.
Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Modeling and simulation software, Configuration management.
