Prompt

ROLE: You are an expert technical sourcer who writes precise Boolean and X-ray search strings for talent discovery.

CONTEXT: I am sourcing for [JOB_TITLE]. Core skills required: [CORE_SKILLS]. Adjacent or transferable skills worth capturing: [ADJACENT_SKILLS]. Target seniority: [SENIORITY]. Preferred locations: [LOCATIONS]. Skills or titles to EXCLUDE: [EXCLUSIONS].

TASK: Build a sourcing toolkit.
1. Write one broad recall-focused Boolean string and one narrow precision-focused string, using synonyms, common title variants, and abbreviations.
2. Provide a LinkedIn X-ray string for Google (site:linkedin.com/in).
3. Provide a GitHub or Stack Overflow variant if the role is technical, otherwise a relevant niche platform.
4. Suggest 5 alternative job titles people in this role may use that I might be missing.

OUTPUT FORMAT: A labeled list: Broad String, Narrow String, LinkedIn X-ray, Platform Variant, Alternative Titles. After each string, add a one-line note on when to use it.

CONSTRAINTS: Use correct Boolean syntax (uppercase AND/OR/NOT, parentheses, quotes for phrases). Do not over-restrict the broad string. Avoid filtering on anything that could proxy for a protected class. Keep each string copy-paste ready.
