Boolean nesting for role families
A technique that groups synonyms with OR and combines those groups with AND to precisely target a family of related roles.
"I want results that include any common title for this role family, but must also match required skills or seniority."
Use parentheses to create OR-groups for title synonyms, then AND those groups with constraints (skills, seniority, location) so results hit the whole role family while excluding irrelevant matches.
