LinkedIn DM that doesn't look like every other connection request

Write me a LinkedIn DM that earns a reply from a busy person.

Context:
- Their role: {{role + seniority}}
- Why I noticed them: {{specific post / job change / shared connection / company news}}
- What I want from them: {{intro / advice / 15 min / job referral / partnership}}

Constraints:
- Maximum 50 words
- No "Hi {first name}, hope you're doing well"
- Reference the specific thing in line 1
- Make the ask small and clear
- No CTA link unless it's directly useful

Give me 2 versions: one direct, one curious/question-led. Tell me which would land better given their seniority.
