Find the best decision-maker at a target company using a prioritized cascade hierarchy. The engine tries each tier in order and stops as soon as max_results is reached.
Response: Person data is nested inside results[].person (unlike Employee Finder which return it directly).
icp = cascade tier matched (1 = highest priority). ranking = overall relevance in company (1 = most relevant).
Latency: < 600ms.
