User declined at the gate: 69 is not a strong enough fit to spend a package on.
Consistent with revealed behaviour — every application actually submitted scored
77.5-89; nothing below 75 has ever been sent.
No cohort slot consumed (Adjacent stays 1/2). No bullets written, no resume, no
cover letter. Phase 0 analysis retained in the session file in case a
better-fitting AWS req appears.

Verbatim JD (amazon.jobs 10504263, posted 2026-08-17) retrieved via Playwright
and stored with the session.
Evidence Fit 69/100, Adjacent. All four Basic Qualifications are Direct, so the
minimum-qualification gate passes. Disclosed rather than buried: forward
deployment is the title-defining capability and is a Gap - SW-4, VZ-1 and
global_forbidden_output_patterns all forbid "customer-embedded delivery", and
application_strategy lists strategic-account FDE as a Stretch target. Scored
Adjacent because AWS's published minimum bar is pure software engineering and
the org is seven weeks old, hiring builders at volume.
Assets: AWS is the evidenced cloud (claims.json forbids GCP output), and Kiro -
named in the JD - is in the verified GenAI toolchain.
CL decision YES. Would consume the last Adjacent cohort slot.

Pipeline:
- SDU PhD: closed, not proceeding. Prof. Jørgensen never replied to the
2026-08-02 enquiry; user dismissed it two days before the 2026-08-20 deadline.
- Google FDE III GTM: closed, not proceeding after two Google rejections. The
bar for a third attempt is now a very strong fit; this was Adjacent with an
agent-orchestration gap. Frees the Adjacent cohort slot (back to 1/2).
JD triage — 5 pulled and read, 1 survives:
- SHORTLIST AWS Senior FDE Zurich: all four basic quals pass and AI/agentic is
preferred-only, unlike the Google Senior Staff FDE where vector DB + RAG were
minimum quals. AWS is the evidenced cloud; JD names Kiro, which he uses.
- SKIP AWS ProServe Bern (clinical pharma domain gate), AWS Principal Delivery
Consultant (8+ yrs architecture leadership + VP+ exec comms), GitLab FDE EMEA
(Ruby/Go hard gate), MS 200044133 (title says FDE Data Scientist, quals are
BGP/MPLS/SD-WAN network engineering — mislabelled req).
Roster:
- Dropped Louis Dreyfus: 300 roles, all Brazil/India/Bulgaria ops, zero Swiss.
- Kept MET Group: its "0 eligible" was a filter artifact; exclusion mode reveals
real Baar/Zug commodity-trading roles.
- Kept Equinor/Telenor/NATO. Memory corrected: the Norway lane is selective, not
closed — the user still wants very good Norwegian roles.

Equinor Manager / AI Architect (JR106747): REJECTED 2026-08-14, no interview.
79 days from submission (2026-05-27) to disposition, the longest turnaround
recorded. Pre-dates the evidence-first-2026-01 cohort (started 2026-07-27),
so it does not free an Adjacent cohort slot. Norway lane now reduced to the
open Aker BP application.
Microsoft Senior SWE, ISE Zurich (200040836): REJECTED 2026-08-11, no
interview, ~39 days. The separate Principal FDE req 200043897 is a different
pipeline and remains open.
Also carries forward uncommitted work from the 08-07 / 08-11 sessions:
- Google FDE III, Cloud GTM (78350205438567110) Phase 0 session file and
scraped JD; Adjacent, Evidence Fit 67/100, hard gate PASS.
- Scout skip decisions: BIS jr100411 (platform admin, not data eng), two
Google reqs gated on a C++ minimum qualification, and the FDE III
Generative AI sibling req confirmed taken down.
- settings.local.json: allow the job_scout venv python invocation.
Every closed application to date has been Channel Weak with no interview.

Explore SDU Center for Energy Informatics PhD, Theme 2 (Predictive
Maintenance and Asset Management of Smart Energy Networks), Odense DK,
deadline 2026-08-20. JD scraped live via Playwright.
Verified the master's thesis against the source PDF rather than the
stored title alone:
- Vibration-based condition monitoring of CNC machine tools; features
are the dimensionless waveform, peak, pulse, margin and kurtosis
indices.
- Implemented a hybrid of rule-based reasoning and a 7-10-3 ANN.
- Evaluation measured throughput and latency, not model accuracy:
~500 SPS pipeline against 72.9 kSPS sensors.
- Corrects an earlier note in the same session: PSO was surveyed only
and never implemented. Recorded under thesis_limits alongside the
absence of real operational data and accuracy figures.
Also records the ECTS relative grade (B, top 35%), the existence of
English-language transcripts, and the concrete Bosch sensor-data types
(defect management records, wafer inspection images, PCM electrical
parameters) under BS-2.
Adds the enquiry email sent to Prof. Bo Norregaard Jorgensen, which
asks whether an industry candidate is viable and whether non-academic
letters of recommendation are accepted.

Aker BP ASA — Data Product Architect (FINN 469067315): archive the finalized
resume/CL sources, JD, session and critique. Submitted 2026-07-30 ahead of the
2026-08-02 deadline; logged as applied in the scout decision log and marked
SUBMITTED in Active Sessions.
KB: record Atlassian Compass as Swisscom's metadata/catalogue platform for data
products and lineage (user-confirmed 2026-07-29). Practitioner use only —
claims.json forbids claiming administration, rollout or ownership, and it is
explicitly not a substitute claim for Purview, Collibra or Alation.
Also: close out the Google Business Home session (no interview), extend the job
scout, and allow the job-board domains used during the Aker BP research.

Add BIS Basel and NATO JWC Stavanger application output (resume/CV, cover letter,
session file, critique) plus the Bundeswehr experience file backing the NATO
package; update session status tables in AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md; record two new
Bash allowlist entries for the job scout venv. tmp/ is scratch working files,
now gitignored.

Two applications sent and finalized on 2026-06-15:
- Google - Senior Data Engineer (Merchant Data Science, Zurich), 85.5/100.
Tier-1 scope fix + both Tier-2 polish applied: re-scoped the Swisscom
migration claim in resume B2 + CL P2 (Scope-Discipline), added project-
delivery vocab (B4), and JD-exact 'distributed data processing' (B5).
- Kraken (Payward) - SRE, AI Agents (remote, CH-eligible), 87.2/100.
Finalized as-is; crypto-native + production-ML edge, honest infra gaps.
Logs both as 'applied' in job_scout/state/decisions.json and flips their
CLAUDE.md Active Sessions rows to SENT. Open item for both: confirm level
and comp clear the 180k+ all-in bar at the recruiter stage.

Pass 2 critique 80.0/100 (honest-stretch reach app, converged near ceiling).
Includes accuracy fix: Swisscom Data Mesh reframed from sole-build to
company-wide migration contributed to (hedged verbs); orchestration +
reference-architecture surfaced; removed -ing bullet trailers; CL trimmed
to 300 words with matching ownership hedge.
