Most people don't realise this but it says "what we're looking for" not "our minimum requirements". And even when they do say they are minimum requirements, they aren't really.
Whoever gets this job is absolutely not going to have all this. You can still apply.
That said it doesn't seem totally unreasonable. I have used all those languages and have at least medium understanding of them (haven't written any Go or Java for a while).
I've used MySQL and Postgresql, and Mongo mercifully briefly.
I've used some of the AWS stuff. Enough to bullshit about the rest.
I haven't ever really designed a fault tolerant scalable system but I could definitely bullshit about it.
You don't need to get 100%.
Yeah but these show up somehow at some point in the tech interviews rounds and if you fumble to strengthen your experiences you will get rejected
