Why we read it this way (6)

The JD states a Bachelor's degree in any field as the primary education requirement, with an alternate path of a Master's degree plus 1 year of QA experience. Because a specific degree is hard-required (no 'or equivalent experience' escape for the primary path), the degree requirement is set to Bachelors.

The 3-year total experience requirement is tied to QA/Quality Engineering within a SaaS or web-based platform environment — this is a role-level gate, not a per-technology one.

The 2-year SQL requirement is explicitly stated at the skill level and is captured on the SQL skill's years demanded.

Playwright appears only as a named example framework ('using frameworks like Playwright') in the responsibilities section, not in the Requirements block — listed as preferred accordingly.

No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
