Why we read it this way (8)
The job title ('QA Automation Tester') carries no seniority level word, so advertised seniority is Unspecified; however, the 5+ year experience gate across multiple required skills supports a Senior classification.
Azure DevOps is explicitly required with 5+ years; the five sub-components (Boards, Repos, Pipelines, Test Plans, Artifacts) are individually named in the required section and emitted as separate skills to reflect the posting's specificity.
UFT (Unified Functional Testing) and VBScript are explicitly required together with 5+ years; UFT also appears under 'Additional Preferred Qualifications' but its primary placement is in the required section.
The posting states 'BS in Computer Science, engineering, or technology-related baccalaureate degree … or commensurate experience,' making the degree substitutable — degree requirement is therefore None.
C#, jQuery, XML, JSON, WebAPI, SOAP, .NET, JavaScript, SoapUI, Salesforce, SharePoint, Mulesoft, SQL Server, and SQL all appear under 'Additional Preferred Qualifications' or as 'Knowledge of … preferred' — treated as preferred.
Data Modeling and SQL Server appear in the trailing competency table marked 'No' (not required) and are treated as preferred.
This is a hybrid (not fully remote) position based at Connecticut DCF; the posting does not specify a city beyond the agency context, but DCF headquarters is in Hartford, CT.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
