# NOTICE

## Methodological upstream acknowledgement

`amazon-sucareer` is an independently maintained project for Amazon and cross-border e-commerce career workflows.

Its early methodology and architecture were materially informed by the open-source project:

- `Hisn00w/ASu-skills`
- https://github.com/Hisn00w/ASu-skills

`ASu-skills` introduced and developed several ideas that influenced the early direction of this project, including evidence-constrained career reframing, shared claim/evidence baselines across Skills, responsibility boundaries, and the separation of individual contribution from team outcomes.

`ASu-skills` is distributed under the MIT License. Its upstream copyright and license text is preserved in [`licenses/ASu-skills-MIT.txt`](licenses/ASu-skills-MIT.txt).

## Independent development and extension

Building on those methodological foundations, `amazon-sucareer` has been independently redesigned and extended for Amazon and cross-border e-commerce operations recruiting scenarios.

The project currently includes independently developed or substantially extended structures and workflows such as:

- Career Evidence Ledger v2.0 and its expanded evidence schema;
- responsibility, ownership, attribution, causality, confidence, and confidentiality controls;
- Amazon operations competency and metric frameworks;
- career-level and positioning calibration;
- JD mapping and gap analysis;
- evidence-constrained resume generation;
- resume claim auditing;
- interview claim verification and follow-up questioning;
- multi-Skill orchestration and responsibility separation;
- synthetic fixtures, validation rules, and regression tests.

These components are maintained as part of the `amazon-sucareer` project unless a specific file, section, or notice states otherwise.
