🛡️ Inviolable Data Invariants

  • Jobs are NEVER deleted: When an employer fills a role, it is set to active: false and timestamped with closed. Records are permanently retained to track posting flapping.
  • Stable Unique Identifiers (UIDs): Every posting has a stable uid = "{company_slug}:{external_id}" derived from the employer's official ATS requisition number.
  • Atomic Writes: All persistent databases write to temporary files first with POSIX atomic replacement to prevent corrupt reads.
