Why we read it this way (8)

The role title is 'Software Engineer, Quality Engineering' with no level modifier, so advertised seniority is Unspecified. The 3–8 year experience range spans Mid through Senior; the lower bound (3 years) drives the pool sizing to Mid.

SOC classification is a genuine toss-up: the posting emphasizes building automation frameworks and quality infrastructure from scratch (SDET/engineering-heavy), which pulls toward 15-1252 Software Developers, but the primary domain is quality engineering and test automation, landing it at 15-1253. Medium confidence reflects this tension.

AI-assisted development tools (Claude, Cursor, or similar) appear in the Requirements section with firm language ('Comfort using…'), making this a hard gate on the capability. Claude is listed first; Cursor is captured as an alternative since the JD treats them as interchangeable examples of the same requirement.

The technology stack (TypeScript, Node.js, microservices, Kubernetes, AWS, React Native, iOS, Android) is explicitly framed as 'a plus' under Benefits/closing context, so all are marked preferred.

No degree requirement is stated anywhere in the posting.

The $140,000–$170,000 figure is stated as a base salary range; equity (stock options) is offered separately but no figures are given.

Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): quality engineering.
