Scout triage 2026-10-20
- 109 new rows screened; 23 JDs read in full and logged with the failing
line quoted; 4 Google reqs screened 10-21. One new maybe (Google Senior
SRE, YouTube ML); SBB Team Ampere skipped on the user's Niveau rule (J).
Google Staff Software Engineer, Shopping Graph (Feeds Infra), Zurich
- Chosen as the single Google application after comparing all live Zurich
reqs. Evidence Fit 70, Stretch (Staff-level technical leadership is the
defining responsibility and only Adjacent), hard gate PASS, channel weak.
- Resume generated, critiqued (Document Quality 84), edited for leadership
framing, finalized and submitted 2026-10-21. No cover letter.
- The summary line "sets the technical direction for the data products of
his domains" rests on the user's 2026-10-21 statement and is deliberately
NOT in claims.json (user request); recorded in the session Edit History.
- Registry: new applied entry; the Commerce entry is marked superseded.
KB: software design and architecture
- User-confirmed 2026-10-21: design and architecture of the ingestion and
inference scripts at Bosch (2020-22) and of data products at Swisscom; the
two together exceed three years. Recorded on BS-1, BS-2 and SW-7, with
`designed` added to the BS-1/BS-2 verbs, scoped to his own scripts and the
inference integration (the first patch over-extended it to the data
services and was trimmed the same session).

Bosch and Swisscom); skills TIBCO Spotfire, Teradata, Oracle Database and
Hadoop / Impala registered from existing claim scopes; SDMX registered as
forbidden (user-confirmed never used); SW-4 scope records the
prototype-and-iterate approach with B2B business, architects and engineers.
- Clarification note 2026-10-14 with verbatim user answers, including
"schedule yes, budget no" for project planning (unattributed, so not a

Scout
- 2026-10-14 run (37 companies, 101 new): 19 JDs read; BIS jr100498 taken
forward; Snowflake Engineering Productivity (mis-titled "Sr SWE,
Enterprise"), Google SWE III Shopping Graph Feeds and Meta SWE

RUAG C5I - AI Engineer C5I (Thun, app ID 18027): SUBMITTED 2026-08-27.
Evidence Fit 74/100, fit class Stretch, title-capability hard gate FAIL
(R1 build/operate the AI-LLM platform and R2 in-house LLM/retrieval are
Adjacent, not Direct) - all knowingly accepted under the user's explicit
Phase 0 override. Consumes the cohort's sole Stretch slot: cohort is now
6/10, Stretch 1/1.
Critique ran twice. Round 1 scored the documents 85/100 and raised three
Tier 1 items; Round 2, after the fixes, scores 93/100 with truth and
provenance 24/25 and zero Tier 1 findings. Evidence Fit did not move and
was not allowed to: PP-3 is a personal project and cannot convert an
Adjacent title-capability into a Direct one.
Documents (.tex is the deliverable; PDFs are gitignored):
- resume 2pp/13 bullets, letter 1pp/295 words, both validators PASS
- headline is now the canonical title "Staff Data, Analytics & AI
Engineer", which puts the req's own word above the fold
- PP-3 added as a Projekte section - the only current Linux/hardening
evidence, since BS-6 ended Dec 2022
- the letter names the AI-platform gap in one sentence, then connects
SW-5 to C5I's stated DevSecOps model
- "governte" -> "governance-konforme"; JD term coverage 18/22 -> 22/22
claimable, with all six gap terms still correctly absent
Two defects found and fixed that the first critique missed:
- the resume never loaded babel, so a German document was hyphenated
with English patterns (Hal-bleiterfertigung, Tran-skription). Fixed
with babel[ngerman] plus a Transkription exception; this also cleared
an overfull box. Check this on every future German package -
resume_template.tex likely has the same omission.
- IBM AI Engineering had no primary-source record. Certificate read
directly (IBM via Coursera, 4 Jun 2020, verify 3ZBZFVAL6A34), recorded
as entry #8; it also proves PyTorch, now evidence: certification.
Also included: the submitted Kdo Cy DevOps Engineer III package, the
Capgemini omit rule promoted into config.md, BW-1 canonicalized in
experience_bundeswehr.md, and a scout.py comment correcting the
telenorgroup slug from "near-empty" to a claimed board serving stale
phantom listings that DEMO_TITLES would not catch.
Compensation, PSP/project eligibility and role level were never resolved
before sending and are now live screening topics.
