This is the one I'd post. It still filters for the actual requirements, but it doesn't feel like a wall of demands. And there's a subtle recruiting advantage in "we'll discuss the company, team, and opportunity" — you're giving them a reason to talk to you without publishing Novatec's name and making it easy to go around you.
