We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role (maybe from first paragraph?), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications? The posting includes "Requirements" heading with subparts: Education and Experience, Training & Certifications Preferred, Knowledge, Skills & Abilities Required, Physical Requirements, Equipment And Machines, Attendance, Travel, Citizenship. Also includes Salary range. Also includes Benefits description later. Also includes location (Edwards AFB). Also includes "Prefer Global Hawk aircraft type experience..." etc which are preferences; could be part of Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include sections only if posting has real specific content. We have content for About the role (intro paragraph). Responsibilities (list). Requirements (education/experience etc). Qualifications? Could combine Knowledge, Skills & Abilities as Skills. Benefits (benefits package). Pay (salary range). Schedule (attendance, core hours, flexibility, weekends, third shift). Also maybe Travel? Not required heading; could be part of Schedule or separate but not in list; we can omit if not requested. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. At end there is EEO statement; we must remove. Also remove "To learn more about our company..." etc? That's not boilerplate but maybe considered promotional; but it's substantive? It's about company description; could be considered part of About the role? Might be okay to keep but not required. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep company description? It's not directly about the role but could be considered part of About the role? Might be okay to include in About the role section as extra detail. However we should avoid fluff? It's substantive about AMA. We'll keep. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll structure:

        We also have Travel 25% and Citizenship requirement; could be part of Requirements or separate but not required headings. We'll include in Requirements as paragraphs.
