Each one shares real tasks with your job and sits in a better position against AI: less of the work already automated, or something structural protecting it that your job does not have. The shared tasks are quoted underneath, in both jobs' own words, so you can judge the match rather than trust a score.

This one reads as a step back on level or entry pay. That is sometimes the right trade to get out of work that is disappearing, but it should be a choice you make with your eyes open, not a surprise.
