The investigation
Ami US is one of TSC's first-order subs, confirmed by Ami US's own recruiter in public chat. When Filip asked publicly, in a Nokia-to-Ericsson Ohio thread, "Is this TSC work?", the Ami US recruiter answered in one word. "Yes" — confirming in public chat that the recruiting post Ami US had just placed was for a TSC subcontract. Eduard at NBN and Egor and Gedas co-signed "100%" in the same thread, the multi-witness confirmation of a supply-chain position TSC itself has never disclosed publicly. The Ami US recruiting copy is the recruiting copy of TSC's pipeline. The public chat says so explicitly.
The DM tells the rest of the story. When the applicant asked directly "LLC works?" after disclosing LLC/no SSN, Ami US replied: "Yes". A single word — posted as a direct reply to the LLC question, with the original LLC-no-SSN disclosure present in the thread. The recruiter's brevity is the scheme's standard operating tempo at a subcontractor where the LLC question is not a gatekeeping moment but a formality.
The Ami US pricing proposal is where the operation becomes visible as a passthrough rather than a hiring. The offered rate: "18% of gross for the first site, then — if we work well together — 20%". In the tower-subcontracting industry, standard crew-lead shares are 40–70% of gross site value. An 18% share means Ami US retains 82% of gross while the person whose LLC is actually performing the labor takes the 18% — the financial design of a passthrough rather than a partnership, the structural signal of a subcontractor whose own position on the supply chain is itself a thin margin between TSC's prime allocation and the pressed-down pricing TSC documents in its own DM channel. Ami US is not capturing margin because it is efficient. It is capturing margin because it can.
The same Ami US Telegram account also recruits separately for a different carrier's work. "Tiger Team" work on TMO Nokia — same user, same brand, second carrier — demonstrating the multi-carrier footprint of a TSC-sub operating as a recruiting channel into the larger pipeline.
Ami US's place in the supply chain is documented in three channels at once. The DM says yes to LLC. The gross-share says 18%. The public chat says TSC. TSC's certification system can verify, against its own roster of authorized first-order subs, whether the workers on Ami US closeouts are the workers Ami US recruited and on what authorization. So can Ericsson, sitting above TSC. They have not. They know.
