Hiring evidence packet · screening decision

Screening-ready. Offer decision not ready.

Four inspectable projects provide enough evidence for an authorized reviewer to decide whether to advance to a structured technical interview. Contribution scope, employment and degree conferral still require interview or first-party verification before an offer.

01 · Role fit

What the visible work can support

Strongest visible matchSystems + orchestration

Clade exposes a multi-surface AI delivery system with plugins, MCP, evidence controls, tests and documentation.

Additional matchML + data pipelines

GPT4o-Receipt and VoxBlink-CN expose evaluation and large-scale multimodal data work.

Required confirmationPersonal ownership + impact

Public association is visible; exact contribution, production reliability and user impact need direct review.

02 · Inspectable work

Open the artifact, understand it, then ask about ownership

Clade ↗

Substantial observable system · high role relevance

Does: provider-neutral control plane for coding-agent delivery, evidence, verification and correction learning.

Visible depth: runtime adapters, Claude/Codex plugins, MCP, orchestrator, tests, security and release docs; recorded Fetch bound 13,202 chars and 274 links.

Ask: show one trust path, hardest failure and personally owned code/test. Sole authorship and impact remain unverified.

GPT4o-Receipt ↗

Substantial research artifact · high role relevance

Does: benchmark and human study for AI-generated receipt forensics.

Visible depth: arXiv lists Alex Shen among nine authors; 1,235 images, five multimodal models, 30 annotators, 12 pages, seven figures and seven tables.

Ask: which dataset/evaluation component was owned and what failure changed the design? Individual scope remains unverified.

VoxBlink-CN ↗

Substantial data pipeline · high role relevance

Does: two audio-visual collection pipelines for Chinese speaker-verification data.

Visible depth: DKU names Xingyu Shen; repository reports 41,634 speakers, 789,321 videos, 11,385 hours and 3.64M utterances.

Ask: identify the owned stage, quality metric and largest failure. Exact code ownership and dataset compliance remain unverified.

RTVis ↗

Functional research tool · moderate role relevance

Does: co-author, citation, word-frequency and theme-river views for research orientation.

Visible depth: Duke association plus Python app/preprocessing, demo data and Docker deployment in the public repository.

Ask: demo one view, data model and bottleneck. Exact contribution, maintained use and impact remain unverified.

04 · Human screening decision

Enough to choose an interview; not enough to choose an offer

Evidence-supported reviewer choice

Open the four linked artifacts. If the visible systems, ML/data and research evidence fit the actual job rubric, a human reviewer may advance, hold or conclude this role-specific review under the employer's documented process. Any interview should test ownership, failure handling and impact.

Suggested evidence state: screening-ready · human decision pending.

Still required before offer

  • Contribution and ownership for collaborative work.
  • Production reliability, users and measurable impact.
  • Employment and degree only if material and lawfully verified.
  • Role-specific interview or work-sample evidence.
Scope and truth boundary. Alex Shen explicitly authorized this public self-review. TinyFish acquisition and deterministic Reality evidence verification ran; no Reality image/video/PDF model, private account, LinkedIn session, Face Search, Agent or Browser was used. Verification binds provenance, reviewed attachment and bounded claim support—it does not establish legal identity, employment, qualification or job performance. Project depth labels describe visible artifacts, not a candidate score.

Appendix · not part of Alex review

A separate policy-enabled official-record route.

This page is not candidate evidence and was not run for Alex. When purpose, notice, jurisdiction and employer policy separately authorize this lane, the query plan may include DOJ, FBI, IC3 or court public indexes using disclosed names plus non-secret professional anchors. A no-hit is not clearance; a same-name hit remains unassigned; positive attribution still requires compound identifiers and independent IDV.

09 · Positive-lead historical replay

Known-repeat official-record conflict review

Recorded Bryan Cho / Jong Pong Ju training reconstruction

The labelled packet was reconstructed from public DOJ and FBI records; it is not an original application, ID, résumé or interview video. The indictment alleges that Jong Pong Ju used the alias Bryan Cho and an identification document combining his face with other identifying information. Allegations are unproven and the defendant is presumed innocent.

What the packet permits

If a concrete official attribution is verified

Pause only the access or onboarding step justified by policy; independently verify identity; route to authorized security/legal reviewers; provide notice, correction and appeal where required.

Never infer

  • Identity or guilt from a face, name or country.
  • Clearance or a positive signal from no search result.
  • Automatic rejection from an indictment or wanted notice.
  • That an unpublished original file was analyzed.
