That's not a typo - they were looking for people with a skill set in a non-existent software, because HR are lazy bureaucrats who can't be bothered to understand what their company is actually looking for.

Details, specificity matter, and too many people in the world can't be bothered to put the effort into understanding the details.

In almost every interview I've ever been on for IT, I've had to educate the first interviewer on what they're actually looking for, because their listed requirements found me, but after interrogating them about the position I found the requirements to be very different.

One additional detail of import: this entire story is based off of a single Reddit post, so take it with a Himalayan quarry of salt.
