💡 What: Pre-compiled job title and company regexes as module constants (_TITLE_PATTERNS, _COMPANY_PATTERNS) and moved tech_keywords from a local list inside a function to a module-level set _TECH_KEYWORDS.
🎯 Why: Avoids re-compiling the regex patterns on every call to _extract_job_details, preventing redundant overhead. Using a set for tech_keywords upgrades lookups from O(N) to O(1) and prevents re-allocating the large list every time _suggest_sections_for_keyword is called.
📊 Impact: Measurably reduces function overhead during keyword density analysis by completely removing unnecessary memory allocations and redundant regex recompilation per loop/call.
🔬 Measurement: Verified correct behavior across 681 tests via python -m pytest, which continue to pass identically.

Summary by Sourcery

Precompile regex patterns and centralize tech keyword definitions to reduce per-call overhead in keyword density and job detail extraction.

Enhancements:

  • Move job title and company regex patterns to module-level compiled pattern lists reused by job detail extraction.
  • Promote the tech keyword collection to a shared module-level set for faster membership checks in keyword suggestion logic.

Pre-compiled `title_patterns` and `company_patterns` as module-level constants `_TITLE_PATTERNS` and `_COMPANY_PATTERNS`.
Moved `tech_keywords` from a local list to a module-level set `_TECH_KEYWORDS`.

Reviewer's Guide

This PR optimizes keyword density analysis by pre-compiling regex patterns for job title and company extraction at module import time and by moving the technology keyword collection to a reusable module-level set, eliminating repeated allocations and enabling O(1) membership checks.

File-Level Changes

Change Details Files
Pre-compile job title and company extraction regexes as module-level constants and use them in _extract_job_details.
  • Introduce _TITLE_PATTERNS as a list of pre-compiled regex objects for common job title formats with appropriate flags baked into the patterns.
  • Introduce _COMPANY_PATTERNS as a list of pre-compiled regex objects for company/organization name detection with flags set at compile time.
  • Refactor _extract_job_details to iterate over _TITLE_PATTERNS and _COMPANY_PATTERNS using pattern.search instead of re.search with inline flags.
cli/utils/keyword_density.py
Move the technology keyword collection to a module-level set to avoid reallocation and improve lookup performance.
  • Define _TECH_KEYWORDS as a module-level set containing the tech-related keywords previously defined in a local list.
  • Update _suggest_sections_for_keyword to test membership against _TECH_KEYWORDS instead of recreating a local list on each call.

Hey - I've left some high level feedback:

  • Consider making _TECH_KEYWORDS a frozenset to prevent accidental mutation and better signal that this collection is intended to be constant.
  • You may want to add type hints for _TITLE_PATTERNS and _COMPANY_PATTERNS (e.g., List[Pattern[str]]) to make their intended usage clearer to readers and static analyzers.
