We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: Use

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Let's extract content: - Department Technical Operations (maybe not needed) - Our Company Promise: paragraph about commitment. Could be "About the role"? Actually it's company promise. Could be placed under "About the role" maybe. But we need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have content. From posting: - Role Overview: description of role. That's about the role. So we can put under

About the role

with paragraph(s). - Pay & Benefits: includes Pay of $35.77 per hour plus A&P Premium, opportunities for overtime and shift premiums. Also Benefits list: Fly for free, retirement savings plan contributions, profit sharing, health insurance, etc. So we have Pay and Benefits sections. - Additional Details: includes CBA, schedules based on seniority, may include early mornings, late nights, weekends, holidays, mandatory overtime, trade shifts, US citizenship required, etc. This could go under Schedule (maybe) and Requirements (citizenship, etc). Also "Additional Details" includes info about schedule, citizenship, etc. - Responsibilities: a big paragraph list of duties. So we have Responsibilities section. - Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities: list of skills. So Skills section. - Education Required: High School Diploma or GED. Experience Required: 2 years of Aircraft Maintenance Experience, including 1 year of Heavy Jet Aircraft Maintenance Experience... plus recency requirement. Also Licensing/Certification: valid US driver's license, valid Federal A&P Certificates. Physical Abilities: list. Other Qualifications: well-groomed appearance, US citizenship or work authorization, at least 18, attendance standards, possess tools, work rotating shifts, holidays, overtime. Also note about pay amount not guarantee employment, 401(k) match contributions subject to vesting, profit sharing contributions subject to vesting. Thus we have many qualifications. We need to decide sections: Requirements (maybe education, experience, licensing), Qualifications (maybe physical abilities, other qualifications), Skills (knowledge, skills, abilities). Could combine but we need to follow instruction: Use headings only if posting has real specific content for it. We can include multiple sections. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove lines like "Please print/save the job description because it won't be available after you apply." (that's application instruction). Also "May perform other job duties as directed by Employee’s Leaders." appears twice; we can keep once maybe but it's part of responsibilities? It's a generic line; but it's not boilerplate? It's a responsibility line; we can keep. Also "Southwest Airlines is an Equal Opportunity Employer." is EEO boilerplate; remove. Also "Job Posting End Date 09/28/2026" is metadata; we can fold into short p or drop. Probably drop as minor metadata. Now produce HTML. Structure:

Responsibilities

  • ... each duty as list items
We need to convert the responsibilities paragraph into list items. The responsibilities paragraph is a long sentence with many items separated by commas and "including but not limited to". We can split into logical items: "Works in a cooperative spirit to ensure the success of our Company." "The work of the Mechanic includes all work generally recognized as Mechanic's work performed by the Company in its airline operations in and about Company shops, maintenance bases, and maintenance stations, including but not limited to checks, dismantling, overhauling, repairing, fabricating, assembling, welding, erecting, and painting all parts of aircraft, aircraft engines, radio equipment, instruments, electrical systems, hydraulic systems, and machine tool work in connection therewith." "Must be able to meet any physical ability requirements listed on this description." "May perform other job duties as directed by Employee's Leaders, with all internal and external Customers." We could keep as is but better to break into list items. Similarly for Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities: list each bullet. We'll create

Skills

  • ... each skill. For Requirements: maybe Education, Experience, Licensing/Certification. Could be under Requirements heading. For Qualifications: Physical Abilities, Other Qualifications (appearance, citizenship, age, attendance, tools, rotating shifts). Could be under Qualifications. For Pay:

    with list. For Schedule:

    Schedule

    with paragraph about schedules based on seniority, early mornings, late nights, weekends, holidays, mandatory overtime, trade shifts. Now we need to ensure we don't include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now produce HTML. Let's extract exact text for each section. About the role: from "Role Overview" paragraph: "Want to help planes stay ready to fly while working out on the ramp? Line RON Aircraft Maintenance Technicians at Southwest work outside on the ramp to inspect and repair planes during overnight hours. They check systems, fix issues, and ensure each aircraft is ready for its next flight. Working closely with Technical Operations and Airport Teams, they help keep our schedule running smoothly. This role is perfect for someone who enjoys hands-on work, being outdoors, and helping Southwest deliver safe and on-time service every day. Check out what a day as an AMT is like: swa.is/DayAsAnAMT" We can keep that as paragraph(s). Could split into two paragraphs but one is fine. Responsibilities: The block after "Responsibilities".
