> You must be a junior with a few years of experience.

You may say that, although that would stretch the word junior to the point where it is hardly meaningful anymore. Judging by Twitter threads and Medium posts that have become so very inclusive and protective of juniors, a junior (usually discussed as applied to web development) is someone who has hard time configuring build tools, is still uncertain about syntax of their primary programming language, and is easily scared by a smidgen of functional programming (such as the reduce function). I wonder where they would fit in your classification :-)
