Why we read it this way (6)
No work location or country is specified in the posting. D-Fend Solutions is an Israeli company headquartered in Tel Aviv; this role is most likely based in Israel, so the US-based flag has been set to false. If the role is intended for a US-based hire, this flag should be updated.
The degree requirement is a B.Sc. in Computer Science or Engineering, but the JD explicitly accepts 'relevant military courses and experience' as an alternative, so no hard degree gate is set.
Real-time stream processing is listed in the Requirements section as 'Proven experience' — treated as a hard gate despite being a domain capability rather than a named tool.
CI/CD, C++, multithreading/multi-process knowledge, networking/OS fundamentals, and startup experience all appear under the 'Advantages' heading — treated as preferred.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): real-time stream processing.
This role's work location reads as outside the US — the candidate pool, comp, and contention benchmarks here are US-only (BLS employment, Adzuna/USAJOBS demand, and certified H-1B wages), so treat them as a rough US reference, not a local market.
