Why we read it this way (9)
The caller has declared this a fully-remote role; the physical work location (San Francisco, CA) has been disregarded and no metro is reported.
The posting's title is 'Enterprise Solutions Architect' (amended from 'Enterprise Architect'); no seniority level word appears in the title, so advertised seniority is Unspecified.
The minimum education requirement is an associate's degree (or equivalent credits), but the JD explicitly allows substitution of additional experience for the degree on a year-for-year basis — treated as no hard degree gate.
The two required experience figures are role-level gates: 5 years in enterprise architecture/solution design/technical leadership, and 2 years of full-stack software development. These are captured as the overall years minimum (5, the higher gate) and as a full-stack skill with the years demanded of 2.
All technology-specific skills (Snowflake, Power BI, Azure/AWS/GCP, SQL, CI/CD, containerization, infrastructure as code, GitHub Copilot, TOGAF, Power Platform) appear exclusively under the 'Desirable Qualifications' section and are therefore preferred.
No compensation figures are published in the posting beyond a reference to a 2% general salary increase; no numeric salary range is provided.
SOC 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is used because 'Enterprise Solutions Architect' is a cross-cutting architecture role that does not map cleanly to a single developer or analyst code; 15-1252 (Software Developers) is the closest runner-up given the explicit full-stack engineering and DevOps delivery expectations.
Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): enterprise architecture, full-stack development.
