Long application — this platform typically asks you to create an account and re-enter your work history.
“or” means any one of them counts — you don't need all of them.
We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.
Why we read it this way (7)
The job title is 'Lead Software Engineer' with no explicit seniority level word (e.g. Senior, Staff), so advertised seniority is Unspecified; however, the scope — owning architecture, leading a team of 4–5 developers, and driving enterprise-wide ERP delivery — supports a Senior classification.
The 'Considerations For Top Candidates' section is the closest thing to a requirements block for specific technologies; it reads as a preferred/top-candidate profile rather than a hard gate, but the programming and Azure integration skills are framed with strong language ('Proficiency', 'Expertise') and are central to the role's day-to-day work, so they are treated as required.
Scribe Insight and Scribe Online are listed together as data migration tool options; they are captured as a single skill with the alternative noted.
Experience in Heavy Industry and B2B/B2B2C organizations are listed as preferred context, not concrete named technologies, so they are omitted from the skills list per extraction rules.
The posting does not specify a work location beyond Caterpillar's headquarters context; Peoria, IL is used as the CBSA given Caterpillar's primary corporate base there. The posting does not explicitly state remote eligibility.
Visa sponsorship is explicitly not available for this position.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Azure API Management.
