Soil mite. It’s hard to identify which one exactly but they feed on organic matter. The only drawback to growing organic indoors...you have to deal with critters sometimes. the only way to get rid of them will also get rid of all the beneficial organisms. You’d be better off to make your peace with them or get a couple sticky traps, those might work.
also, it’s not unheard of for fox farms to put beneficial in their soil to combat fungus gnats and other pests.
I should add that soil mites feed on dead, decaying organic matter, which your soil has a lot of so they are probably very happy there.
