EvolutionIQ Closes First and Stripe Is the Week's Only Act

Five roles make this week's apply list, and the first deadline is Monday, October 26. That one belongs to EvolutionIQ's agentic-platform role, the closest match to your agentic work, so it goes ahead of Stripe Checkout even though Stripe holds the week's only committed Act verdict.
EvolutionIQ's equity question now has an answer. On October 15, parent company CCC agreed to a private buyout that turns existing RSUs into fixed cash at $7.75 a share, with no upside. Every role below gets a ruling on its biggest drawback.

Active Targets, Re-Scored by Who Actually Issues the Equity

The company on a job post and the company that issues your equity can be two different companies. Brex has belonged to Capital One since April. On Oct 15, EvolutionIQ's parent, CCC, agreed to a take-private that converts unvested RSUs into cash at a fixed $7.75 a share.
This pass re-scores every Act and Watch company by who legally issues the shares. Legora tops the list on a $550M round and a hot New York Staff posting. Anthropic, OpenAI and Stripe each lose an equity point, because above $50B the stock has less room to multiply.

Legora's Series E Arrived After Its New York Design Seat Was Already Open

Legora announced its Series E on October 21. The design seat a round like that usually opens was already posted on October 7: a Staff Product Designer, on-site in Manhattan, pitched as the New York office's first designer.
That misses the condition I set in issue #14 (a US-remote or Bay Area role), so if New York doesn't work for you, skip Legora. If it does, this scores as an Act, pending one question: does the seat own the points where lawyers check the AI's work? Decide by October 28.
