feat(app): NVIDIA Senior Production Engineer, DGX Cloud submitted; on-duty, GPU and networking KB gaps closed; triage 2026-10-22
Application (submitted 2026-10-22, Workday): - NVIDIA JR2027105, Switzerland Remote. Evidence Fit 65, Stretch (SLIs and error budgets not evidenced), hard gate PASS, channel Weak, no cover letter. - Package in output/NVIDIA_ProdEng_DGX_Cloud/: session, resume .tex, critique (Document Quality 85 before Edit 1; Tier 1 + all Tier 2 applied), verbatim JD. - Prior NVIDIA req JR2024256 was pulled (last listed 2026-09-18; page gone 2026-10-22): noted on that application, so there was no stacking conflict. KB (claims.json, user-confirmed 2026-10-22): - SW-11: current rotating engineer-on-duty role, Opsgenie alerting, alerts and bugs auto-create Jira tickets; he writes alert thresholds (e.g. data quality). - BS-1: the Bosch inference ran on NVIDIA GPUs; CUDA registered forbidden as a skill (system context only, little configuration done). - BS-4: the PoC included Grafana, Prometheus and Loki; ELK Stack, Grafana, Prometheus and Loki registered as PoC-context skills. - networking: certification context only (AWS SA Associate); work uses automated landing zones. - Extraction and CLAUDE.md log row added. Scout state: - decisions: RUAG Senior DevOps (Kubernetes) C5I parked (home-office terms); SLB Data Scientist skipped (user); NVIDIA JR2008695 skipped (C++/Rust 8y); JR2027105 applied; Norway/Apple/Swiss JD-read triage decisions. - employer_reputation: SLB (Glassdoor 3.9), MazeMap and SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge (unchecked).

| 2026-10-22 | **Current on-call was unrecorded, which made the KB look as if his production-operations evidence ended at ART B2B. This is the eighth gap of the recurring ops shape, surfaced by the NVIDIA *Senior Production Engineer, DGX Cloud* (JR2027105) fit check.** User-confirmed in his current team: **Opsgenie** alerting, a **rotating engineer-on-duty role** he takes part in, and bugs and alerts that automatically create Jira tickets the team assigns and fixes. Recorded as **SW-11**. A follow-up confirmed that **he writes the alert thresholds for his own pipelines**, data-quality thresholds being the named example. The Opsgenie/Jira integration is not his and "24/7" is not established. The follow-up also confirmed that the Bosch BS-4 PoC included **Grafana, Prometheus and Loki** (previously only in his earlier CV); registered as PoC-context skills with ELK Stack. **Same message:** (a) the Bosch ML inference (BS-1) **ran on NVIDIA GPUs with CUDA**, but he "never did much configuration there". The writable form is "GPU-backed inference on NVIDIA GPUs". **CUDA is registered `forbidden`** as a skill (it is system context only), and GPU tuning is forbidden on BS-1. (b) **Networking: no professional configuration.** Day-to-day work runs on automated AWS landing zones, and AWS networking is covered only by the Solutions Architect – Associate certificate. Recorded as `networking`, certification context only. **Lesson, the same as before: on an SRE/production JD, ask about the CURRENT on-call and alerting setup before scoring. The past SW-2 Rufbereitschaft had hidden the current one.** | `claims.json` (SW-11, BS-1, skills Opsgenie/CUDA/networking); `knowledge_base/extractions/2026-10-22_oncall_networking_gpu_clarification.md` |

| 2026-10-21 | **Software design and architecture was under-recorded: the seventh canonical gap of the recurring shape, surfaced by the Google *Staff SWE, Shopping Graph* minimum *"3 years of experience with software design and architecture."*** Before this, the only design evidence was SW-7 (current, undated, 2026-10-03) and a *contribution* at Generali (GN-3), so the line read as unproven. User-confirmed: **software design and architecture were part of his work at Bosch (ingestion and inference scripts, 2020-2022) and at Swisscom (data products)**, and both count toward the year requirement; together they exceed three years. Recorded on BS-1, BS-2 and SW-7, with `designed` added to the BS-1/BS-2 allowed verbs. **Scope kept tight:** at Bosch, "designed" covers the ingestion scripts and the inference integration only, not the data services in general (the first patch over-extended it and was trimmed the same session). Design never means an architect title, design authority or shared-platform architecture. The Swisscom start date stays undated. **Lesson, the same as 10-08 and 10-14: when a JD has a years-of-X minimum that the canonical file states without a duration, ask for the duration before scoring.** | `claims.json` (BS-1, BS-2, SW-7); `config.md` (data-product design row); `knowledge_base/extractions/2026-10-21_software_design_architecture_clarification.md` |

| 2026-10-22 | **Scout findings fixed in one pass; the biggest one is that Apple had been blind to Switzerland for about two months.** (a) **Apple:** the `location=switzerland-CHE` slug stopped resolving and Apple silently applied a US location ("Chesterfield, Missouri"). Every run from at least 2026-08-31 to 2026-10-22 returned the same 21 US/intern cards and **0 Swiss roles**, which read as "Apple has nothing" rather than as a failure. The code is now `CHEC` (from `/api/v1/refData/postlocation`); the card is the result list item, so the location is readable; and there is pagination, a settle delay and per-element timeouts (one run took 876s, the next 25s). Result: **24 Swiss roles**, Zurich AIML/infra included. (b) **BIS:** bis.org went behind a Cloudflare challenge (403, even for a headless browser), so the board moved to its Workday tenant `bis.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/External`, which also gives the real office. A host alias plus a lower-cased jr-id keep all 9 `bis.org#jr…` decisions linked (applied jr100498 included). (c) **NAV:** the search API 429s after ~9 requests and then for hours. Discovery now stays at 8 searches, and posting text comes from NAV's official third-party feed (`pam-stilling-feed`, public rotating token), which tolerated bursts. The feed lacks ~2/3 of ads, so a small, slow website-page fallback covers those, and verdicts are cached. (d) **EMEA leak fixed:** a country allowlist without CH/DK plus a trailing "EMEA" tag is no longer Europe-remote (27 rows removed). Swiss/Danish segments in multi-location strings are checked per segment, so "PL-Poland-Remote \| CH-Zurich-MSO" stays Swiss. A regression over all 2026-10-22 rows showed only the fenced rows changing. (e) **Reputation:** every board now has a dated verdict. Glassdoor and **kununu** are both primary sources, and whichever has more reviews decides (user tip: kununu is far better for Swiss employers). AVOID: **BIS** (Glassdoor 2.9/56, where an application is pending), **BFH** (kununu 3.3/132), **Kdo Cy** (federal-administration kununu 3.4/997, not unit-specific). **Lesson: a board that returns the same non-zero count with zero eligible rows for weeks is a silent failure, not an empty market. Check what filter the site actually applied.** | `scout.py` (Apple, BIS, NAV, location filter, reputation); `state/employer_reputation.json` |

| 2026-10-21 | **FIXED 2026-10-22 (Microsoft links; the EMEA leak below was fixed the same day, see the 2026-10-22 row).** Fix: `fetch_pcsx` now emits `apply.careers.microsoft.com<positionUrl>?jobId=<displayJobId>`, a `?jobId=` pattern precedes the `/job/` one in `_JOB_ID_PATTERNS`, and `_HOST_ALIASES` maps the new host to the old so `_decision_key` is unchanged. Verified: all 7 logged Microsoft decisions still resolve (applied 200043897 included), and a new-form link opened the real posting with the job number on the page. Reports before 2026-10-22 still carry the dead form. Original finding: **every Microsoft link the scout emits is dead, in every report**, found in the 2026-10-20 triage. `fetch_pcsx` builds `jobs.careers.microsoft.com/global/en/job/<displayJobId>`, which now redirects to a generic `apply.careers.microsoft.com/careers?...&pid=1970393557041551` search page. Verified on 200060867 and on the **pending application 200043897** (Principal FDE). The application itself is unaffected; only the link is. The working form is `https://apply.careers.microsoft.com/careers/job/<pcsx id>`, the API's `positionUrl`. **Deliberately NOT patched yet:** 6 logged Microsoft decisions (including 200043897) are keyed on `displayJobId` through the `careers\.microsoft\.com /job/(\d+)` pattern. Swapping the URL would re-key them on the pcsx id and orphan them, the same failure as the 09-04 RUAG/BIS de-linking. **Safe fixes:** (a) keep `url` and add a working `apply_url` field to the row, or (b) emit the new URL with the display id carried in it, plus a host-normalised key pattern. Either way, verify all 6 rows still resolve through `find_decision_url` afterwards. Same triage, also OPEN: an **"EMEA" region suffix lets country-fenced roles through the location filter** (GitLab FR/DE/NL/ES/UK, Grafana ×5, Fivetran Serbia: 7 of 109 new rows), which breaks the docstring rule against multi-country allowlists that omit CH. | not yet fixed: `scout.py` (`fetch_pcsx`, location filter); evidence in `reports/2026-10-20.triage.md` |

| 2026-10-15 | **Two scout adapters were reporting wrong data without failing; both were found by the 2026-10-14 triage.** (a) **BIS:** the RSS adapter stamped `default_location: Basel, Switzerland` on every vacancy, so **jr100491 (Hong Kong, BIS Asia office)** passed the CH filter and reached a JD read. The feed carries no location, but each vacancy page has a static *Geographical location* field. `fetch_rss` now reads it per item (`location_page_regex`), falls back to a *"based in ..."* sentence in the feed description, and only then uses `default_location`, printing a warning when it does. Verified: Basel reqs still pass, and jr100491 now reads *8 Finance Street, Central, Hong Kong* and is excluded. (b) **Confluent:** IBM closed the acquisition on 2026-03-17, and the Ashby board went from 17 jobs (10-08) to `{"jobs":[]}` (10-14). careers.confluent.io sits behind a Vercel bot checkpoint. The roles are now IBM requisitions, served by the open IBM careers search API (`www-api.ibm.com/search/api/v2`, POST, `size` capped at 100, pages with `from`). New `ibm` adapter; Confluent keeps its id, so seen-state and decisions still link. First run: 84 roles, 0 in CH/Europe-remote scope. **HashiCorp was dropped on 2026-06-06 for having "no clean public ATS API" after IBM absorbed it. That API exists, so HashiCorp can come back through the same adapter if wanted.** **Rule: when an adapter must assume a field, the assumption has to be visible. A silent default looks exactly like real data.** | `scout.py` (`fetch_rss`, `_rss_item_location`, `fetch_ibm`, BIS and Confluent config) |

| 2026-10-14 | **Spotfire was the sixth evidenced-but-unregistered skill, and junior mentoring was unrecorded - both surfaced by the BIS Basel jr100498 *Senior/Lead Data & Analytics Engineer* (MED IT) triage.** (a) **TIBCO Spotfire** sat in the BS-5 and BS-8 scopes (co-owned environment, technical Application Owner, C# extensions, TAF 2022, spatial wafer-data map charts) but not in the `skills` array, so the JD line *"using database reporting and business intelligence tools"* had no citable skill; registered `production-historical`, `allowed` on user instruction. It does not license Power BI, Tableau or Qlik. (b) The JD requires *"Experience providing general supervision and task-specific guidance to junior colleagues"*, and the only canonical evidence was BS-7 (students, one thesis as Zweitpruefer). User-confirmed: he **onboarded and mentored junior developers at Bosch and at Swisscom** - recorded as **BS-9** and **SW-10**, one per employer. The Swisscom phase (ART B2B or ART DPT) is not recorded, so write it in past tense. Neither is people management. (c) **SDMX: user-confirmed never used**; registered `forbidden` so the scanner catches it. It is an accountability line in the JD, not a qualification. (d) The same audit found **Teradata, Oracle Database and Hadoop/Impala** evidenced only in the SW-2/BS-2/BS-8 scopes and absent from the `skills` array, although every past skills line listed them; registered `production-historical` from those scopes (Oracle explicitly does not establish DBA work). **Lesson, same as 10-08: when a JD has a supervision or mentoring line, ask about junior colleagues before falling back on BS-7. Student supervision is weaker evidence and the stronger evidence was simply unrecorded.** | `claims.json` (BS-9, SW-10; skills TIBCO Spotfire, SDMX, Teradata, Oracle Database, Hadoop / Impala); `knowledge_base/extractions/2026-10-14_mentoring_spotfire_sdmx_clarification.md` |
