We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.

Why we read it this way (5)

The role blends software development (cloud-native apps, APIs, backend services) with data pipeline and database work, making 15-1243 (Database Architects) a plausible runner-up; however, the primary emphasis on building applications and services tips it toward 15-1252.

The degree requirement states a Bachelor's in Engineering, Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field plus 5+ years, OR an advanced degree plus 4+ years. The minimum hard gate is a Bachelor's degree; equivalent experience is not offered as a substitute.

AWS, Python, Snowflake, Oracle, and MySQL are listed under the 'What You Will Do' responsibilities section with firm language ('Design, implement,' 'Develop and maintain,' etc.), treating them as hard gates. All other AWS-specific services (Lambda, SNS, SQS, API Gateway, Aurora) and tools (Git, DATK+, DriveSight, Schooner) appear under the 'What Sets You Apart' section, which is a differentiator/preferred block.

The posting states domestic relocation is not available and visa sponsorship is not available. The role requires five days per week on-site in Mossville, IL (Peoria metro area).

DATK+, DriveSight, and Schooner appear to be Caterpillar-internal or niche engineering data tools; candidates unfamiliar with them should not be screened out on that basis alone, per the 'What Sets You Apart' framing.
