We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content.
We need to extract content: The posting includes:
- Intro: "Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis. Count on us. Our 'we-care' culture is more than just a motto; it's a promise. From day one, we prioritize your growth, well-being, and success. You can count on us to support your career journey and help you achieve your professional goals. Join us." This is generic but maybe part of About the role? Could be considered "About the role" or "Company culture". We need to decide headings.
- Then: "Our Tax Operations and Innovation team focuses on ensuring the tax department has the technology solutions and processes to fulfill their critical business needs. We align business goals and modern technologies to help tax practitioners create measurable value across a variety of commercial industries including manufacturing & distribution, real estate & construction, business & industrial services, private equity, and wealth management."
- Then: "Your role. Role You can look forward to a broad range of projects that will deepen your knowledge of public accounting and how technology plays a crucial role in serving clients in a diversity of industries. Your experience may include, but will not be limited to: [list]"

- Gain an understanding of the firm's technology stack and usage, along with tax processes.
- Analyzing technology vendors and their products to help the tax department make informed investment decisions.
- Participating in strategic research projects on advanced technology.
- Then: "The Qualifications." Actually heading "The Qualifications." Then bullet list:

- Pursuing a Bachelor’s degree with an emphasis in accounting, accounting information systems; or a Master’s degree in accounting or tax.

- Previous experience with Power BI, Power Automate, APIs, and SQL a plus.
- This is a non-exempt position and may require work hours that exceed the standard 40-hour work week.
- This position may require some local or national travel.
- Then: "What makes us different?" paragraph about culture, etc. Could be "About the company" or "Culture". Might be considered "About the role"? Might be separate "Company overview". We can include a section "About the company" but headings allowed: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content to these headings.
We have responsibilities list (the bullet list). That's responsibilities.
Qualifications: the bullet list under "The Qualifications."
Skills: maybe we can extract skills from qualifications: problem-solving, communication, analytical, Excel, Power BI, Power Automate, APIs, SQL. Could be a Skills section.
Benefits: later paragraph: "We are pleased to offer eligible staff a robust benefits package. Eligibility and contribution requirements for some of these benefits vary based on the number of hours staff work per week. Highlights include health, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance. In addition to this, eligible staff are able to take advantage of our Flexible Time Off and various pre-determined holidays, as well as a 401(k) plan, flexible benefits plans, business-related travel expense, lodging, and meal reimbursement for business-related use. A pension plan is also available for eligible administrative and paraprofessional staff. A discretionary bonus plan is available for eligible staff. Plante Moran also offers some contingent staff positions the option to elect health insurance in addition to limited paid sick time."
That's benefits.
Pay: compensation range: "$33.00 - $36.00" for CO, IL, OH, MA. Also mention compensation range reflects base salary etc. So we have Pay.
Schedule: maybe mention "non-exempt position and may require work hours that exceed the standard 40-hour work week." Also "may require some local or national travel." That's schedule? Could be schedule: work hours exceed 40, travel. We'll include Schedule.
Also we have "About the role" maybe intro about team and role description before responsibilities. Could be a short paragraph summarizing role.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, drug-free workplace, application instructions, etc. Also remove "Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis." maybe keep as part of About? It's generic but maybe keep as part of About the role? It's not substantive? It's generic but maybe we can keep as part of About the role? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. "Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis." is not exactly boilerplate but maybe it's generic. Could keep as part of About? Not sure. Safer to keep it as part of About the role? It's not legal/EEO. It's about process. Might be okay.
We also need to remove "Count on us." etc. That's fluff but maybe part of culture. Could keep as part of About.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown.
We'll produce sections:

This is a non-exempt position and may require work hours that exceed the standard 40‑hour work week. Some local or national travel may be required.
We must ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract exact sentences. Intro: "Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis. Count on us. Our "we-care" culture is more than just a motto; it's a promise. From day one, we prioritize your growth, well-being, and success. You can count on us to support your career journey and help you achieve your professional goals. Join us.

We can combine into About the role paragraph. Responsibilities list: exactly as given. Qualifications list: exactly as given.

In addition to this, eligible staff are able to take advantage of our Flexible Time Off and various pre-determined holidays, as well as a 401(k) plan, flexible benefits plans, business-related travel expense, lodging, and meal reimbursement for business-related use.

Plante Moran also offers some contingent staff positions the option to elect health insurance in addition to limited paid sick time." Pay: "The compensation range for this role in CO, IL, OH, and MA is: $33.00 - $36.00." Also maybe include note about base salary etc. But we can keep just that. Schedule: "This is a non-exempt position and may require work hours that exceed the standard 40-hour work week. This position may require some local or national travel." Now produce HTML. Make sure to escape quotes inside HTML? Use straight quotes. We'll output:About the role
