Why we read it this way (8)
The title is 'Technical Lead' with no seniority modifier, so advertised seniority is Unspecified; however, the 8+ years requirement and hands-on technical leadership scope firmly support a Senior classification.
Angular and React are presented as interchangeable alternatives ('such as Angular or React'); Angular is listed first and captured as the primary skill with React as an alternative.
TypeScript is the expert-level requirement; JavaScript is listed as an acceptable alternative ('or strong proficiency in JavaScript') and is captured in alternatives.
Node.js and Java are presented as interchangeable backend options ('Node.js and/or Java'); Node.js is captured as primary with Java as an alternative.
AWS is the hard-gated cloud platform requirement. The specific AWS services (ECS, Lambda, API Gateway, S3, DynamoDB) are cited as examples ('e.g.') within the same requirements section; they are captured as preferred since the 'e.g.' framing indicates illustrative examples of the broader AWS requirement rather than individually gated services.
No compensation figures are stated in the posting.
Vanguard explicitly states no visa sponsorship is available for this role.
The role follows a hybrid working model (not fully remote).
