The 'II' in the title 'Software Engineer II' maps to a Mid-level band, consistent with the qualifications, which describe independent delivery and some mentoring but no senior-scope ownership signals.

Kafka and SQS are listed together in the qualifications as examples of asynchronous worker experience; they are treated as interchangeable alternatives for that requirement.

No minimum years of overall experience are stated; the qualifications are skill- and behavior-based rather than year-gated.

The role is explicitly in-office in Boston, MA; relocation may be required. It is not remote.

Compensation is $125,000–$175,000 base salary per year, plus equity and benefits. The posting notes most offers will fall toward the lower end of the range.
