Why we read it this way (7)
No work location city or state is specified in the posting; CBSA and state fields are left blank. The salary range ($115,000–$160,000/year) and the note that 'this range may differ from ranges offered for similar positions elsewhere in the country' suggest a US-based, in-office role, but the specific site is unknown.
The 5-year experience requirement is stated as a combined gate across Machine Learning, Statistics, Image Analysis, Signal/Time Series Analysis, and Python/R programming — it is a role-level minimum, not tied to any single technology.
Python and R are listed as interchangeable options ('Python or R') in the required qualifications; Python is listed as the primary with R as the alternative.
A Master's or PhD is listed under 'Preferred Education' and is therefore not a hard degree requirement; the hard minimum is a Bachelor's degree.
Experience in an ISO or FDA regulated environment is listed under 'Preferred Education, Training, and Experience' — it is not a hard gate.
MS Office (Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel) appears in the KSAs section, which reads as a general competency list rather than a technical gate; treated as preferred.
Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Image Analysis, Signal/Time Series Analysis.
