Turned down a gig last weekend cause I had "better" projects in the pipeline. Big regret.

Hiring for a SWE with 7+ YoE? Why not 5, or 10, or 3? Does the specific cutoff mean much?

So far I'm wondering if attending this was a mistake. There is nothing here that has anything but the most surface level of "you can hit this API and get this result" without any justification, rationale, greater picture, or raison d'etre.
