LinkedIn cross-match

Still Undead on LinkedIn

A "confident" cross-reference match — title, location, and description similarity all lined up (composite score 65%, our confident threshold is 65%), not an exact requisition-ID match. It's the same-shaped evidence as the rest of this site: not proof this is deliberate re-listing, just a second, independent source (LinkedIn, not just the ATS) saying this role reads as live.

LinkedIn read this listing as active 2 weeks ago.
