Telling signs of organization posting jobs just for gathering their own pipeline/not actually hiring for that specific role?

Many job boards have how long the role has been open. Sometimes it's a reasonably generic AE role or something like that and it's been open for MONTHS. Sometimes actually the organization will share that fact down in the job description. You should always read the ENTIRE job description too for many reasons. Of course many times they'll close and re-open the same role regularly too. Hope this helps.

Been seeing the same listing from one startup for 9 months. Same title. Same copy. They’re either ghost-hiring or the turnover is so bad that no one should apply anyway. Either way, hard pass.
