I'm somebody who has really wanted to apply for these jobs since they've started being posted. Can you speak to the requirements for hard CS education? I'm a self-taught engineer who has moved up the ranks, so I can say with a high degree of confidence that I could do the work, but I usually don't bother with organizations who put CS degrees as requirements as they've wasted my time in the past by suggesting they could be flexible and then turning around and saying it's a hard requirement. Did you work with any programmers with non-traditional educations?
