We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions. Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. The posting includes: Work location (on-site, at least four days a week in office at 3M Center, Maplewood, MN). Travel: up to 15% domestic/international. Relocation Assistance: may be authorized. Must be legally authorized to work... That's not pay/benefits/schedule but could be schedule? Work location and travel maybe schedule? The schedule section is for work schedule; we have "on-site working model, with the employee working at least four days a week in the office". That's schedule info. So we can include a Schedule section with that detail. Pay: posting includes compensation range $188,251 - $230,084, includes base pay plus variable incentive pay if eligible. Also mentions benefits overview link. So we can include Pay section with that range. Benefits: posting mentions "Supporting Your Well-being" and lists many programs, plus link to benefits. So we can include Benefits section summarizing benefits (medical, dental, vision, HSA, FSA, disability, life insurance, voluntary benefits, paid absences, retirement benefits). Must not invent details; we can list those as they are mentioned. Also "3M offers many programs to help you live your best life – both physically and financially." and "To ensure competitive pay and benefits, 3M regularly benchmarks...". So we can include Benefits with bullet list of those benefits. Responsibilities: The posting includes bullet-like sentences after "As An Application Engineering Manager, You Will Have The Opportunity To...". We need to extract responsibilities: Leading and developing a global team of Application Engineers supporting key Aerospace & Defense accounts and growth initiatives; Fostering a customer-centric approach to translating customer needs, market insights, and emerging trends into differentiated 3M solutions; Building and strengthening technical relationships across customer organizations; Supporting the team in delivering the technical components of product spec-in; Managing prioritized projects and leading initiatives that accelerate customer value and/or improve internal operations; Collaborating internally with Vertical, Platform, TEGL, and CRL teams on technology, product, and capability development; Mentoring and developing Application Engineers while driving accountability for customer satisfaction, technical excellence, and business results. Also later: "Responsibilities of this position include that corporate policies, procedures and security standards are complied with while performing assigned duties. Safety is a core value at 3M. All employees are expected to contribute to a strong Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) culture by following safety policies, identifying hazards, and engaging in continuous improvement." That's also responsibilities. Requirements: The posting includes "To set you up for success in this role from day one, 3M requires (at a minimum) the following qualifications:" then bullet list: Bachelor’s degree or higher in a science or engineering discipline (completed and verified prior to start); Five (5) years of product development, new product commercialization, application engineering, or management of a team in these roles – translating customer needs into technical product performance criteria in a private, public, government or military environment. That's minimum qualifications. Additional qualifications that could help you succeed even further: Ten (10) years of product development, commercialization, application engineering, or other similar role – or management of a team in these roles – translating customer needs into technical product performance criteria in a private, public, government or military environment; Comprehensive knowledge of aerospace industry materials, technologies, processes, and specifications; Technical management experience, and more specifically, experience leading a team of application engineers; Demonstrated ability to navigate complex problems and identify innovative solutions; Project management experience. We could separate Requirements (minimum) and Qualifications (preferred) or Skills. The instruction says use headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what goes where. "About the role" could be introductory paragraph about role impact etc. "Responsibilities" as above. "Requirements" could be minimum qualifications. "Qualifications" could be additional qualifications (preferred). "Skills" could be skills and expertise like technical management experience etc. But we might combine. However we must not create thin sections; prefer few substantive sections. We could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one "Requirements" section with both minimum and preferred. But we have separate headings allowed; we could include both if they have content. Let's see: The posting has "Your Skills And Expertise To set you up for success in this role from day one, 3M requires (at a minimum) the following qualifications:" then list. Then "Additional qualifications that could help you succeed even further in this role include:" then list. So we could treat first as Requirements, second as Qualifications. Skills maybe not separate; we could put skills under Qualifications or Skills. But we have a Skills heading; we could put the skill-based items like "Comprehensive knowledge of aerospace industry materials, technologies, processes, and specifications", "Technical management experience", "Demonstrated ability to navigate complex problems and identify innovative solutions", "Project management experience". Those are skills. However they are also under additional qualifications. Might be redundant. Better: Use About the role (intro), Responsibilities, Requirements (minimum), Qualifications (additional), Skills (maybe we can omit if thin). But we need to avoid thin sections. Let's see if we can make Skills substantive: list of skills like "Technical management experience, experience leading a team of application engineers, ability to navigate complex problems, identify innovative solutions, project management experience, comprehensive knowledge of aerospace industry materials, technologies, processes, and specifications". That's decent. Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not include headings with filler. All have content. Now we need to strip boilerplate: remove navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions, cookie/navigation, etc. Also remove "Chat with Max", "Supporting Your Well-being" maybe part of Benefits. Remove "Good Faith Posting Date Range", "All US-based 3M full time employees will need to sign an employee agreement", etc. Also remove "Learn more about 3M’s creative solutions..." etc. Remove "Responsibilities of this position include that corporate policies..." we already included as responsibility. Remove "Safety is a core value..." also part of responsibilities. Remove "Pay & Benefits Overview:" link maybe part of Benefits/Pay. Remove "3M does not discriminate..." etc. Remove "Please note: your application may not be considered..." etc. Remove "3M Global Terms of Use and Privacy Statement" etc. Remove "Applicable to US Applicants Only:" but we keep compensation range as it's part of Pay. Remove "Good Faith Posting Date Range". Remove "All US-based 3M full time employees will need to sign an employee agreement". Remove "Learn more about 3M’s creative solutions...". Remove "Responsibilities of this position include that corporate policies..." we used. Remove "Safety is a core value..." used. Remove "Pay & Benefits Overview:" link maybe we keep as part of Benefits? We can just mention benefits overview link but maybe not needed. We'll keep benefits description. Now craft HTML. Structure:

But note some overlap with Qualifications; maybe we can combine Skills and Qualifications? However we need to avoid duplication. Could we omit Skills and put those under Qualifications? But we have both headings allowed; we could keep Skills but ensure not duplicate same items. Could rephrase Skills as soft skills? Not given. Might be better to omit Skills section to avoid thin/duplicate. But instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. If we have Skills with overlapping content, it's thin. Better to omit Skills. Then we have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. That's 7 sections.

Relocation assistance may be authorized. Must be legally authorized to work in country of employment without sponsorship. That's more about eligibility; maybe schedule includes work location and travel. We'll include schedule bullet: On-site role requiring at least four days per week in the office at 3M Center, Maplewood, MN; up to 15% domestic/international travel; relocation assistance may be authorized. Now About the role: we need to capture introductory paragraphs: "Collaborate with Innovative 3Mers Around the World Choosing where to start and grow your career has a major impact on your professional and personal life, so it’s equally important you know that the company that you choose to work at, and its leaders, will support and guide you.
