Why we read it this way (7)
This role is based in Latin America and filled as an independent contractor — US labor market benchmarks do not apply. The US-based flag is set to false accordingly.
The title 'AI Lead' carries no standard seniority level word; the title states no level. However, the 5+ years of hands-on engineering experience and the scope of the role (architecting and owning AI/automation systems end-to-end) support a Senior classification.
The SOC classification is Medium confidence: the role is primarily a software builder (15-1252) but has a strong AI/automation engineering flavor that could also fit 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other), given the heavy emphasis on agentic AI systems and LLM tooling rather than traditional application development.
n8n is listed as the primary automation tool in the required stack; Make and Zapier appear alongside it in the same required-qualifications sentence and are treated as alternatives/peers rather than separate hard gates.
Claude and OpenAI API (GPT-4) are listed together as LLM API requirements; Claude is used as the primary name with OpenAI API as an alternative, since the JD treats them as the same capability requirement.
QuickBooks integration experience is listed under Preferred Qualifications, not Required, so it is marked as preferred.
Finance and accounting literacy (debits/credits, financial statements) is listed as a required qualification but names no specific software tool — it is a domain knowledge requirement and is omitted from the skills list per extraction rules.
