Why we read it this way (5)
The degree requirement is effectively None: the JD accepts 'a degree in STEM + 5 years' OR 'an Advanced Degree + 3 years', and does not hard-require a specific level of degree.
C and C++ are listed together in the required qualifications ('C / C++ programming experience'); they are emitted as separate skills because both are distinct languages used in embedded development, not interchangeable alternatives — though the JD's slash notation is ambiguous.
DO-178B/C and VxWorks/LynxOS appear under 'Qualifications We Prefer' and are marked preferred accordingly. DAL A or B experience is noted as additionally preferred within the DO-178 requirement.
The avionics standards (POSIX, ARINC-615A, ARINC-653, ARINC-661, ARINC-664, IEEE 802.3/AFDX) appear only in the narrative 'What You Will Do' section describing the work context, not in a formal requirements block — marked preferred.
No security clearance is required; the posting explicitly states 'None/Not Required'. Immigration sponsorship is available for this role.
