Six listings retired this cycle. Four hit the 43-day threshold (Samsara, Twilio, Amplitude, Vanta). Brex lost its pre-IPO equity premise when Capital One closed the acquisition in April. Anthropic's People Products role was posted and pulled between weekly scans.
Two new entries worth acting on. OpenAI posted Product Design Leadership, Growth covering Codex and ChatGPT, base $347K–$405K, 4 days old. Headway posted Staff Product Designer, Group Practices, base $212K–$265K, 3 days old. Headway is the cleaner first move: no unresolved gates, and the regulated multi-stakeholder mandate maps directly to Thermo Fisher. OpenAI carries a mandate question — growth-funnel optimization or trust and decision surfaces — worth probing before deep tailoring.
Hightouch re-leveled from Senior to Staff. Verify scope before investing time. Affirm and Omnicell both hit retirement threshold within 48 hours — one probe each to confirm or retire.
Starting this cycle, the board sorts by execution state. Each listing carries three fields: verdict (Act / Watch / Ignore), window state (hot / active / extended), and today's move. A 3-day listing with no gates outranks an 8-day listing with an unresolved authority question. You scan for what needs doing today, not what scored highest.
