We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.
Why we read it this way (8)
The posting names no specific programming languages, frameworks, or tools — only generic capabilities ('software development in one or more programming languages', 'large-scale distributed systems'). No concrete named technologies could be extracted beyond those two.
The 2 years of distributed systems experience is listed under Preferred qualifications, so it is marked preferred.
A Master's degree in Computer Science or Engineering is listed under Preferred qualifications only; the hard minimum is a Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.
The role is titled 'Site Reliability Engineer' with no level modifier, so advertised seniority is Unspecified. The 2-year minimum experience requirement and scope (contributing to, rather than owning, systems) support a Mid-level classification.
SOC classification is Medium confidence: Google SRE roles explicitly involve writing and fixing production code (pointing to 15-1252 Software Developers), but the operational/reliability framing and systems-administration duties create a genuine pull toward 15-1244.
No work location is specified in the posting; the compensation range is labeled 'US', so the role is treated as US-based. CBSA is left blank as no city is identified.
Compensation is $147,000–$211,000/year plus a 15% bonus target and equity.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): software development.
