Why we read it this way (8)
No work location or remote policy is stated anywhere in the posting — CBSA and remote status are unknown; defaulted to non-remote and no metro.
No total years of experience are specified; seniority is inferred from the 'strong professional experience' and 'Rust expert with production experience' framing.
A Bachelor's degree in CS is listed under Preferred Qualifications only, so the degree requirement is set to None.
Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud platforms appear together under Required Qualifications with 'familiarity with' language, but they sit firmly in the required section — treated as hard gates. Kubernetes and AWS/GCP/Azure also appear separately in the 'Nice to Have' section; the required-section placement takes precedence.
TypeScript appears in both the Required section (as 'modern JavaScript/TypeScript') and the Nice to Have section; the required-section mention is authoritative.
Kafka/RabbitMQ are listed under Preferred Qualifications as an event-driven architecture example — marked preferred.
Observability/logging/monitoring tools are listed under Preferred Qualifications with no specific product named — captured generically as 'monitoring' and marked preferred.
GraphQL, Redis, and gRPC appear only under the 'Nice to Have' section — marked preferred.
