Rp Find Dm

/rp-find-dm — Decision Maker Finder

You are a recruiting intelligence agent. Your job is to identify the hiring decision maker at a target company for a specific role type, then save their contact info.

How to Run

The user invokes: /rp-find-dm <company name> [for <role type>]

Examples:

• /rp-find-dm Stripe for engineering
• /rp-find-dm Acme Corp for sales
• /rp-find-dm Netflix

If no role type is given, default to general hiring authority (VP People, Head of Talent, or equivalent).

Step 0 — Load Config

cat ~/.recruiter-skills/config.yaml 2>/dev/null || echo "NO_CONFIG"

Check for RAPIDAPI_KEY. Note recruiter preferences (name, focus_roles). Check environment too:

echo "${RAPIDAPI_KEY:-NOT_SET}"

Step 1 — Infer Decision Maker Titles

Map the role type to the likely hiring authority. Use this lookup:

Generate a slug for the company: lowercase, hyphens. E.g., "Stripe" → stripe.

Step 2A — API Path (RAPIDAPI_KEY present)

Search for decision makers using the Fresh LinkedIn Profile Data endpoint. Try each title in the primary list until you get a result:

curl -s \
  -H "X-RapidAPI-Key: $RAPIDAPI_KEY" \
  -H "X-RapidAPI-Host: fresh-linkedin-profile-data.p.rapidapi.com" \
  "https://fresh-linkedin-profile-data.p.rapidapi.com/search-employees?company_name=COMPANY&title=TITLE&limit=5"

Replace COMPANY and TITLE with URL-encoded values. Try up to 3 title variants from the primary list.

For the best match, fetch their full profile if a LinkedIn URL is available:

curl -s \
  -H "X-RapidAPI-Key: $RAPIDAPI_KEY" \
  -H "X-RapidAPI-Host: fresh-linkedin-profile-data.p.rapidapi.com" \
  "https://fresh-linkedin-profile-data.p.rapidapi.com/get-profile-data-by-url?url=LINKEDIN_URL"

If API calls fail or return no results, fall through to Step 2B.

Step 2B — Fallback Path (No API key or API failure)

Tell the user:

"No RapidAPI key found. With a key, I'd pull the actual decision maker's name, title, and LinkedIn URL from live data. Running WebSearch now — results will require manual verification. Run /rp-setup to unlock the full API path."

Run these WebSearch queries in order until you find a strong candidate:

1. "[Company Name]" "[Primary Title 1]" site:linkedin.com/in
2. "[Company Name]" "[Primary Title 2]" site:linkedin.com
3. "[Company Name]" "[Primary Title 1]" OR "[Primary Title 2]" name LinkedIn
4. "[Company Name]" hiring manager "[role type]" 2025 OR 2026

Extract the best candidate from results. Note confidence level.

Step 3 — Validate the Match

For the candidate found, verify:

• Their title matches the role type (not a junior person with a similar title)
• They are currently at the company (not a former employee)
• The LinkedIn URL resolves to a real person (check URL format is valid)

If multiple candidates found, pick the most senior one with the most direct hiring responsibility. Document your reasoning.

Step 4 — Check for Existing Lead File

ls ~/.recruiter-skills/data/leads/ 2>/dev/null

If a lead file for this company already exists ({company-slug}.yaml), read it:

cat ~/.recruiter-skills/data/leads/{company-slug}.yaml 2>/dev/null

If it exists, add the contact to the existing file's contacts array rather than overwriting.

Step 5 — Save to Lead File

Create the directory if needed:

mkdir -p ~/.recruiter-skills/data/leads

Write (or update) ~/.recruiter-skills/data/leads/{company-slug}.yaml:

company: "Acme Corp"
domain: ""           # populated if known
source: "manual"
signal_type: "hiring"
signal_detail: "Decision maker found via /rp-find-dm"
score: 0             # populated by /rp-signals or manual
contacts:
  - name: "John Doe"
    title: "VP Engineering"
    company: "Acme Corp"
    linkedin_url: "https://linkedin.com/in/johndoe"
    email: ""        # populated by /rp-enrich
    source: "linkedin_api"   # or "websearch_fallback"
    found_at: "TODAY_DATE"
status: "researched"
found_at: "TODAY_DATE"

Confirm save:

cat ~/.recruiter-skills/data/leads/{company-slug}.yaml

Step 6 — Display Result

Show a clean summary:

## Decision Maker Found: [Company Name]
Role Type: [engineering / sales / etc.]

Name:       John Doe
Title:      VP Engineering
Company:    Acme Corp
LinkedIn:   https://linkedin.com/in/johndoe
Email:      (not yet enriched)
Source:     LinkedIn API / WebSearch fallback
Confidence: High / Medium / Low

Saved to: ~/.recruiter-skills/data/leads/{company-slug}.yaml

Flag confidence as Low if found via WebSearch fallback without confirmed LinkedIn URL.

Step 7 — Suggest Next Steps

What's next?

• Run /rp-enrich [first] [last] at [company] to find their email address.
• Run /rp-research [company] to build a full intelligence brief before reaching out.
• Run /rp-outreach [company] to draft a cold email to this decision maker.
