Why we read it this way (8)
The JD requires 10 years of overall professional development experience, with at least 4 years specifically in C#/.NET Core and Framework — the 4-year figure is attached to those technologies and is reflected on those skills.
Azure is listed as 'strongly preferred' within the Required Skills section; given its placement under the required heading and the firm framing, it is treated as a hard gate.
Git is listed as preferred within the Required Skills section ('preference for GIT'); it is treated as a hard gate because it appears under the required heading, with the qualifier indicating only that Git is the preferred tool among version control options.
MS SQL is mentioned in the role description narrative as part of the core platform scope but not explicitly called out in the skills sections — included as a hard gate given the central role it plays in the described responsibilities.
Azure DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, and Terraform appear explicitly under the 'Preferred Skills' section.
A Bachelor's degree is listed as preferred, not required, and equivalent professional experience is accepted — so no minimum degree is set.
No compensation figures were provided in the posting.
