We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". We need to parse the posting. We need to extract: - About the role: The description of company and role? The posting starts with description of Aerospace, PSL, MTD, etc. Could be considered "About the role". We'll include a

About the role

with paragraphs summarizing that content (but must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail). However we must not invent or summarize away detail: we need to preserve all substantive information. That means we cannot paraphrase or condense? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we need to keep the details, but we can format them into paragraphs and lists. Summarizing away detail would be removing details. We need to keep all details. So we need to include the content verbatim (or near verbatim) but structured. We can break into paragraphs (

) for prose, and

  • for lists. We must not repeat the job title as a heading. The job title is "Microelectronics Device Scientist (Sr. MTS - Microelectronics/Semiconductor Engineering)". Not to be used as heading. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we need to strip the EEO statement at the end, also the "Equal Opportunity Commitment" paragraph, also the contact info for disability accommodation, also the "Know Your Rights" line. Also remove "We are all unique..." paragraph? That's maybe part of EEO? It's a statement about diversity; could be considered boilerplate. Probably remove. Also remove "Virtual Tour" link? It's a highlight: "Highlights of our lab's capabilities can be seen here: Virtual Tour". That's substantive? It's a link; maybe keep as part of About the role? It's not essential but it's a reference. Might keep as a sentence. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. Let's identify sections: - About the role: includes description of Aerospace, PSL, MTD, role context. We'll put that. - Responsibilities: "What You’ll Be Doing" bullet list. - Requirements: "What You Need To Be Successful" includes Minimum Requirements bullet list. - Qualifications: maybe "How You Can Stand Out" could be considered Qualifications or Skills. Could be "Preferred Qualifications". We'll treat as "Preferred Qualifications" or "Skills". The instruction says use headings like Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we could have a "Skills" section for the "How You Can Stand Out" list. - Benefits: there is a paragraph about benefits: "We offer a competitive compensation package..." then later "Ways We Reward Our Employees" with bullet list of benefits. So we have Benefits section. - Pay: there is explicit pay range: "$120,000.00 - $140,000.00" and "Pay Basis: Annual". So we include Pay section. - Schedule: mention "selected candidate will be required to work full-time, on-site at our facility in El Segundo, CA." Also maybe "Standard and alternate work schedules, including telework options" under benefits. But schedule specifics: full-time on-site. So we can include Schedule section with that. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now we need to preserve all substantive information. That means we need to include all details from each section, not omit any. We need to be careful not to duplicate content. Let's extract content. First, About the role: The initial paragraphs: "The Aerospace Corporation is the trusted partner to the nation’s space programs, solving the hardest problems and providing unmatched technical expertise. As the operator of a federally funded research and development center (FFRDC), we are broadly engaged across all aspects of space— delivering innovative solutions that span satellite, launch, ground, and cyber systems for defense, civil and commercial customers. When you join our team, you’ll be part of a special collection of problem solvers, thought leaders, and innovators. Join us and take your place in space. Physical Sciences Laboratories (PSL) support the effective and timely development and operation of national security systems through scientific research and the application of advanced technologies. PSL has more than 150 specialized laboratories used to test, analyze, and troubleshoot virtually every aspect of rocket and satellite system design, development, construction, deployment, and operation. The expertise of the laboratories’ technical staff allows PSL to stay abreast of new technological developments and program support issues associated with rapidly evolving space systems. The Microelectronics Technology Department (MTD) is part of PSL with specialized laboratories for testing, accelerating, and analyzing, failures in electronics used for space system. MTD is comprised of two sections: one that performs radiation effects testing and discrete microelectronics testing, while the other section performs failure analysis on microelectronics using tools that can identify anomalies from the macroscopic down to the atomic scale. MTD is looking a Microelectronics Device Scientist (Sr. MTS - Microelectronics/Semiconductor Engineering) to support the investigation of radiation effects, reliability- and radiation-hardness-by-design, and physics of failure of advanced CMOS, SiGe, SOI, III-V, II-VI, GaN, GaAs, MoS2 and other transition metal dichalcogenides, and other advanced technology for space applications. Highlights of our lab's capabilities can be seen here: Virtual Tour The selected candidate will be required to work full-time, on-site at our facility in El Segundo, CA." Note there is a typo: "looking a". We'll keep as is. We need to preserve that exactly? We can keep the sentences but maybe break into paragraphs for readability. Must not invent or summarize away detail. So we can keep the same sentences, just split into

    tags. Now Responsibilities: "What You’ll Be Doing" list: - Provide technical support to national security space programs, internal, and academic collaborators - Conduct innovative basic and applied research on microelectronic device technologies and applications to space systems, including reliability and radiation hardness. - Present results of assessments/research internally, to customers, at scientific meetings, and publish research in refereed scientific journals. - Support the adoption and assessment of new technologies and applications, space systems, including reliability and radiation hardness. - Perform radiation testing on microelectronic and optoelectronic components using gamma-rays, x-rays, neutrons, energetic protons, and energetic heavy ions. - Duties, responsibilities and activities may change, or new ones may be assigned as needed - Training and mentorship will be provided We need to preserve each bullet. The bullet list may be presented as separate lines. We'll put

    • for each. Now Requirements: "What You Need To Be Successful Minimum Requirements:" then bullet list: - Ph.D. degree from an accredited college/university program in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related discipline (pursuing or conferred within last 12 months) - 0-1 year of industry work experience - Coursework related to semiconductor physics - Knowledge of microelectronic and/or optoelectronic device physics, such as Silicon CMOS, III-V materials, 2D semiconductors or other low-dimensional materials, topological devices, Tunnel-FETs, Ga₂O₃ and diamond, ReRAM, MRAM, FeRAM, PCM, FeFETs, or other semiconductor device systems. - Experience in testing semiconductor devices - Experience with Python / Labview / Matlab or similar software for data analysis and collection. - Willing to travel domestically up to 10% of the year to customer site/radiation test facility/conferences - This position requires the ability to obtain and maintain a security clearance, which is issued by the U.S. government. - U.S. citizenship is required to obtain a security clearance. - Transcripts Note "Transcripts" appears as a bullet? It's just a word; maybe it's a requirement to provide transcripts. We'll keep as a bullet. Now Skills / Preferred Qualifications: "How You Can Stand Out It would be impressive if you have one or more of these:" then bullet list: - Strong publication record and demonstrated ability to develop and execute innovative research projects especially those related to microelectronics. - Experience designing advanced test structure using layout tools such as Cadence Virtuoso or L-Edit IC - Experience with radiation hardness-by-design and reliability-by-design test chip development - Knowledge of radiation environments and the effects of TID and SEE in microelectronics. - Experience in microelectronics reliability, RF testing and or radiation testing - Experience with GaN, GaAS, SiGe or related RF/5G semiconductor technology - Experience with modeling / simulation of radiation effects or radiation transport using TCAD tools, MCNP, SRIM, GEANT4, or CRÈME96 - Experience with VHDL/Verilog/FPGA/Microprocessor programming We'll put these under a

      Skills

      (or maybe "Preferred Qualifications"). The instruction says use headings like Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we use Skills. Now Benefits: There's a paragraph: "We offer a competitive compensation package where you’ll be rewarded based on your performance and recognized for the value you bring to our business. The grade-based pay range for this job is listed below. Individual salaries within that range are determined through a wide variety of factors including but not limited to education, experience, knowledge and skills." Then later under "Ways We Reward Our Employees": bullet list: - Comprehensive health care and wellness plans - Paid holidays, sick time, and vacation - Standard and alternate work schedules, including telework options - 401(k) Plan — Employees receive a total company-paid benefit of 8%, 10%, or 12% of eligible compensation based on years of service and matching contributions; employees are immediately eligible and vested in the plan upon hire - Flexible spending accounts - Variable pay program for exceptional contributions - Relocation assistance - Professional growth and development programs to help advance your career - Education assistance programs - An inclusive work environment built on teamwork, flexibility, and respect Also earlier: "During your interview process, our team will provide details of our industry-leading benefits. Benefits vary and are applicable based on Job Type." That's maybe filler but we can keep as part of benefits intro. We need to preserve all substantive info. So we will include the introductory sentences and the bullet list. Now Pay: The posting includes: "(Min - Max) $120,000.00 - $140,000.00 Pay Basis: Annual". Also earlier: "We offer a competitive compensation package where you’ll be rewarded based on your performance and recognized for the value you bring to our business. The grade-based pay range for this job is listed below." So we need to include that. We'll create a

      Pay

      with paragraphs: maybe one paragraph describing that compensation is performance-based, grade-based pay range, then the range and pay basis. Now Schedule: The posting includes: "The selected candidate will be required to work full-time, on-site at our facility in El Segundo, CA." Also under benefits: "Standard and alternate work schedules, including telework options". That's a benefit but also schedule info. We'll include schedule section with the full-time on-site requirement. Also maybe mention that standard and alternate work schedules are available as a benefit, but that's already in benefits. We'll keep schedule section focusing on the requirement. Now we must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must remove boilerplate: EEO statement, "Equal Opportunity Commitment", contact info, "Know Your Rights", also the "We are all unique..." paragraph (maybe part of EEO). Also remove the
