+# micro1 card-level candidates — detail-page verification (2026-10-21)
+
+Follow-up to the 2026-10-20 micro1 supplement addendum, which deferred these four
+card-level candidates to the next tick for detail-page verification. Verified
+2026-10-21 ~16:40 ET via browser.open on the canonical `jobs.micro1.ai/post/<uuid>`
+pages (full copy rendered for 3 of 4; the 4th URL was malformed — see below).
+
+## 1. "Software Engineering Specialist" — Sep 25, 2026 — $150–350/hr
+- URL: https://jobs.micro1.ai/post/b4ce7861-a888-4f57-bb63-c50fb01ae65d
+- **Verdict: LIVE (page renders, "Apply now" present, Published 2026-09-25), SCREENED OUT on fit.**
+- Pay on page: "$150 - $350/hour". Contractor; Remote (US, UK or CAN).
+- Actual role title on page: "Software Engineering Specialist - Executive
+  Presentation Review". Work is slide reconstruction, presentation design,
+  data visualization, content editing for technical decks (Microsoft
+  PowerPoint, "Slide Reconstruction, Presentation Design, Visual Storytelling").
+- Same family as the Oct-15 "Software Engineering Presentation Review
+  Specialist" one-liner. Top-band pay, off-lane work. Not a lead.
+
+## 2. "Senior Software Engineer" — Sep 20, 2026 — $30–100/hr
+- URL: https://jobs.micro1.ai/post/9b3377c5-01da-40d7-9304-39cc8cd20932
+- **Verdict: LIVE (page renders, Published 2026-09-20). In-lane work, below-band pay — secondary carry.**
+- Pay on page: "$30 - $100/hour"; compensation section states output-based per
+  accepted task with minimum weekly submissions (effective rate is
+  pace-dependent). Contractor ~15 hrs/wk, remote, flexible.
+- Work: create realistic, challenging coding tasks for AI to solve (feature
+  implementation, bug fixes) + implement deterministic verifiers. Python3 named
+  among languages; strong testing background "a big plus".
+- Process: screening → ~30-min AI interview → technical assessment → hiring
+  manager. "Typically fill roles within 48 hours."
+
+## 3. "Junior Software Engineer" — Oct 12, 2026 — $150–200/hr
+- URL: https://jobs.micro1.ai/post/29ba0d51-2d9f-412e-ad19-5f28a76ca96e
+- **Verdict: LIVE (page renders, Published 2026-10-12). NEW LEAD — top-band pay, in-lane work.**
+- Pay on page: "$150 - $200/hour". Role Type: Contractor; Location: Remote
+  (no country restriction stated on page).
+- Work: evaluate AI-generated code for correctness, quality, design; write
+  challenging coding problems, reference solutions, and test cases; review
+  model reasoning on architecture/debugging/system design; detailed technical
+  feedback. Required skills: System Design, Code Review, Debugging, Algorithms,
+  Data Structures, Software Architecture.
+- Preferred qualifications: 1+ year as a SWE at a top technology company (part
+  within past 3 years); based in an English-speaking country; clear written
+  technical communication. No degree gate on page.
+- Fit note: title "Junior" is the same platform wallpaper as the Oct-15
+  OpenTrain Junior SWE precedent (badges stamped on senior-scope roles);
+  Alexander clears every stated bar comfortably. Queue-add is his call, same as
+  the other pending rows.
+
+## 4. "Open Source Contributor (GitHub)" — Sep 16, 2026 — $100–150/hr
+- URL from the 10-20 supplement (`.../post/0b7f-4523-ac0e-508c9f0f6f66`) is
+  **malformed** (truncated UUID) — canonical page returns "Job Not Found /
+  Invalid URL please check url and try again". True canonical UUID unresolved.
+- **Verdict: corroborated LIVE 2026-10-21 via mirrors, not canonical.** Six
+  mirrors carry the role with consistent copy: redpenjobs.com (states "We read
+  this listing on micro1 on 16 Sep 2026 and checked it again on 21 Oct 2026" —
+  today's re-check), aitrainer.work, remowork.life, nearskill.in, wfadigital.com,
+  lepidata.com.
+- Pay: $100–150/hr. Global remote contractor ~15 hrs/wk, flexible; ~100 openings.
+- Work: repo exploration, debugging front-end AND back-end components,
+  translating full builds between languages, unit/integration/regression/e2e
+  tests, reviewing AI-generated patches for correctness/completeness/security/
+  maintainability.
+- Gates (page-verbatim per mirrors): "A public or otherwise verifiable GitHub
+  profile"; meaningful ownership/contributions (docs-only/typo-fix PRs don't
+  count); discuss specific repos, PRs, issues authored.
+- Honest fit notes: (a) same GitHub/GitLab gate gap as the OSS-maintainer —
+  Alexander's public review work lives on Gitea; (b) work explicitly includes
+  front-end component work (generic, not React-mandated — mild, not a
+  screen-out); (c) compensation section states output-based per-task pay with
+  minimum weekly submissions, so treat the hourly band as nominal until the
+  application page is read.
+
+## Standing cautions (repeat, not new)
+- AI interview is the first stage on micro1 roles → pause ALL Mac automations
+  before it (Oct-3 rule, now codified in `interview-preflight-24mag.md`).
+- Queue-add / apply authorization is Alexander's call via Timmy, same as the
+  other pending rows (24-MAG Turing door + rate, micro1 Senior SWE $245–280/hr,
+  Askable N4).

+# micro1 — Open Source GitHub Maintainer ($150–300/hr): new row, verified 2026-10-20
+
+Supplement to `career-lane/daily-2026-10-20.md`. Surfaced during the mid-day micro1 index follow-up (the jobs.micro1.ai index is a JS shell in text reads; this row came via a mirror and was verified on the canonical page).
+
+## The row
+
+- **URL:** https://jobs.micro1.ai/post/51a65c2c-07dd-4307-aba6-f7c4af17311c
+- **Status:** LIVE — "Apply now" renders on the canonical page, read 2026-10-20 ~10:45 ET.
+- **Pay:** **$150–300/hour**, output-based per accepted task (not hourly floor — effective rate is pace-dependent).
+- **Terms:** contractor; 15 hrs/week; remote, open globally; flexible schedule with constant-activity expectation; minimum weekly task submissions; "typically fill roles within 48 hours."
+- **Work:** review LLM-generated code patches for the repository (or repositories) the expert maintains; write detailed justifications; peer-review other experts' submissions.
+- **Gate (page-verbatim):** "Applicants must have clear open source contributions and profiles to showcase it like GitHub or GitLab." Preferred: experience maintaining an OSS repo; experience reviewing contributor code.
+- **Process:** screening questions → ~10-min AI interview → hiring-manager review.
+
+## Fit — honest read
+
+The work is Alexander's daily shape: diff-level review of generated code with written justification. The named gate is the one honest gap: his public review work lives on Gitea (forge.alexanderwhitestone.com), not GitHub or GitLab as the page names it — same gap as the Oct-15 OpenTrain OSS-maintainer note. Name the Gitea profile in the application, don't hide it. Skills line names C++, Java, TypeScript, Rust, Go, Python, C — Python-first backend is his lane; the others are "required skills" list items, not per-role hard screens on this project.
+
+## Standing cautions (repeat, not new)
+
+- First stage is an AI interview → **pause ALL Mac automations before it.**
+- This is Timmy's relay: queue-add and apply authorization are Alexander's call, same as the other pending rows (24-MAG vs Turing door + rate, micro1 Senior SWE, Askable N4).
+
+## Provenance
+
+- Mirror that surfaced it: vibingtalk referral thread (published 2026-09-26), linking the canonical post UUID above.
+- Verified on the canonical micro1 page itself 2026-10-20; "Published: 2026-08-14" on page (so it predates the track — the 10-20 scout simply missed this row; it is not a new posting).
+- The live-board enumeration follow-up is still running in a background browser task; if it surfaces further missed rows they land here as addenda.
+
+## Addendum — full-board enumeration completed 2026-10-20 ~10:55 ET
+
+A live-browser pass enumerated all **247 roles** on the micro1 board (each card's URL read from its href, UUID matched to title):
+
+- **No new (published ≥ 2026-10-19) SWE/AI-eval roles.** The 9 new listings are all medical, legal, or video/data-collection roles — nothing in Alexander's lane. The "newest-post" coverage gap in this morning's tick is now closed.
+- **Card-verified candidates for tomorrow's tick to verify at detail-page level** (card read live today; detail pages NOT yet read — do not present as verified leads):
+  - "Software Engineering Specialist" — Sep 25, 2026 — **$150–350/h** — https://jobs.micro1.ai/post/b4ce7861-a888-4f57-bb63-c50fb01ae65d — top-band pay; work content unknown, verify before any fit call.
+  - "Senior Software Engineer" — Sep 20, 2026 — $30–100/h — https://jobs.micro1.ai/post/9b3377c5-01da-40d7-9304-39cc8cd20932 — distinct UUID from tracked #15; lower band, secondary.
+  - "Junior Software Engineer" — Oct 12, 2026 — $150–200/h — https://jobs.micro1.ai/post/29ba0d51-2d9f-412e-ad19-5f28a76ca96e — title caveat (cf. the OpenTrain "Junior" wallpaper precedent); verify work content.
+  - "Open Source Contributor (GitHub)" — Sep 16, 2026 — $100–150/h — https://jobs.micro1.ai/post/18a809aa-0b7f-4523-ac0e-508c9f0f6f66 — lower-band sibling of the OSS-maintainer family (also #36/#38/#169 at $50–100/h).
+- **Screened out at card level (not leads):** "Sr. Full-Stack Software Engineer" (Sep 16, $50–100/h) — frontend/full-stack emphasis, denialist rule; "AI Agent Evaluator" / "Everyday AI Agent Tester" (Oct 9, $25–45/h) — below senior band; "Applied Scientist" (Oct 15, $245–280/h) — different discipline.
