Why we read it this way (5)
Location is stated only as 'California' with no specific city or metro. The CBSA has been defaulted to Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA as the largest California metro, but the actual work location is unspecified — this may need correction.
The posting describes a 'remote-friendly' environment in the benefits section rather than as a formal policy, which is ambiguous; it does not clearly state the role is fully remote, so remote has been set to false.
Data protection/security product experience is called 'highly relevant' in the requirements section but reads as contextual domain knowledge rather than a hard gate on a specific named technology — no skill was emitted for it.
No compensation figures are provided.
No minimum years of overall experience are stated explicitly.
