Why we read it this way (6)
The title is plain 'Software Engineer' with no level modifier; advertised seniority is Unspecified. The 3+ years requirement and scope (assisting with design/build, collaborating on a team) support a Mid-level classification.
The RDBMS requirement names MariaDB or MySQL as preferred options; MySQL is used as the canonical skill name with MariaDB in alternatives. The broader SQL/RDBMS gate is captured separately as a must-have.
Linux experience is specified as RHEL-based distributions (Oracle Enterprise Linux or CentOS); captured as 'Linux' to reflect the general gate.
CI/CD tools (Jenkins/GoCD/GitHub Actions), Cassandra, and Kafka/RabbitMQ all appear under 'Desired Characteristics' and are marked preferred accordingly.
Unit testing/mocking frameworks and networking/distributed systems experience are listed under 'Desired Characteristics' but name no specific tool, so they are omitted from the skills list per extraction rules.
