The bias in the "software engineering" roles you can search for is so strong that this search will work like a low pass filter, only bad programmers, ignorant coders and pop culture level will pass this search bias. 10X programmers, computer scientist and hackers will not find any job with this filter.
Maybe the makers of this search need to study what true programmers are like?
A few links to get started [1][2][3][4].
If you had restricted the search to Cobol, Microsoft or PHP your would have created the same type of bias against skilled programmers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect

what if you had access to just the data -- like a spreadsheet? and you could build your own search? also kind of don't like the search and want to rip it up
That is a perfect idea! Most skillfull hackers would indeed like to just search the raw data for a good job instead of relying on your precanned search.
I would happily pay for the raw data!
I would not pay for this search page.
