Why we read it this way (7)
The posting requires 8+ years of Java backend experience AND 2+ years specifically in microservices/event-driven systems; the 8-year figure is used as the overall years minimum since it is the broader gate.
Java 17+ is listed as 'preferred' within the requirements block — captured as required since it sits inside the hard-requirements section, but the qualifier 'preferred' suggests some flexibility on the exact version.
New Relic, Datadog, and OpenTelemetry are presented as interchangeable observability options ('like New Relic, Datadog, or OpenTelemetry') in the responsibilities narrative rather than a formal requirements section; marked preferred with alternatives accordingly.
AI-assisted development tools (Claude Code, Copilot) are cited as examples of 'AI Proficiency' in the requirements block; captured under the broader LLMs skill rather than as separate named tools since the posting treats them as illustrative examples of a capability.
The role is explicitly 100% on-site in the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area despite Coderio describing itself as remote-first; remote is set to false.
No compensation figures are stated anywhere in the posting.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
