Why we read it this way (6)
The posting titles this role 'Jr. Data Engineer' but the Required Qualifications ask for 2–3 years of Data Engineering experience, which aligns with a genuine junior/entry-level band — the advertised and assessed seniority agree.
The role is described as 'Full Stack Developer with Data Engineering experience,' creating some ambiguity between a software development (15-1252) and a data/database architecture (15-1243) classification; the bulk of the listed technical skills and responsibilities lean toward data engineering and warehousing, so 15-1243 was chosen as primary.
XML appears only in the Technical Skills list with no further context; it is captured as a hard gate since that section mirrors the Required Qualifications block.
This is a W2-only contract with no C2C eligibility; visa sponsorship is stated as available. No compensation figures were provided.
Contract length is stated as 12+ months.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
