Area Bridge and Tunnel Inspection Lead

The user wants me to reformat a job posting into clean, well-structured semantic HTML. I need to follow the rules carefully: 1. Use

for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule) 2. Use

• for lists,

  for prose 3. Do NOT repeat job title as heading 4. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings - fold into short

  or drop 5. Preserve ALL substantive information 6. Remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions) 7. Include section ONLY when posting has real, specific content - never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text 8. Never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them 9. Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones 10. Output ONLY HTML fragment - no /, no markdown code fences Let me analyze the posting content: The posting has: - Company intro/About HDR (employee-owned, culture, transportation business group) - Role description: NY/NJ Bridge Inspection Program Lead - Responsibilities/duties (bulleted list under "In the role of Area Bridge and Tunnel Inspection Lead, we'll count on you to:") - Physical demands/requirements - Preferred Qualifications (list) - Required Qualifications (list) - What We Believe / Our Commitment (culture, employee network groups) - Benefits package (comprehensive benefits listed) - Pay/compensation range: $143,850 - $236,325 for New York, NY - Location info: Primary Location: United States-New York-New York, Other Locations: New Jersey-Newark, New Jersey-Pennington - Industry: Transit - Schedule: Full-time - Employee Status: Regular - BusinessClass: Bridges and Structures - Job Posting date: Oct 19, 2026 - EEO statement at end I need to structure this into sections. Let me think about appropriate sections: 1. About the role / Overview - the introductory paragraphs about HDR and the role 2. Responsibilities - the bulleted list of duties 3. Requirements / Qualifications - both Required and Preferred qualifications (could combine or separate) 4. Physical Demands - the physical requirements section 5. Benefits - the benefits package described 6. Pay - the compensation range 7. Schedule - Full-time 8. Location - the locations But I should only include sections with real content. The posting has real content for all of these. I'll structure as: -

  About the role

  with prose paragraphs -

    Qualifications

    with subsections for Required and Preferred (maybe use

    but rules say use

    for section headings... but I can use

    for main sections and maybe for sub-headings within, or just combine into one list with labels). Actually, the rules say use

    for section headings like "Requirements, Qualifications". I could make two sections: "Required Qualifications" and "Preferred Qualifications" both as

    . That seems appropriate. -

        for locations But note: "Schedule" is listed as Full-time, Employee Status: Regular. I'll include Schedule. Also, the posting has "Industry: Transit" and "BusinessClass: Bridges and Structures" and "Job Posting: Oct 19, 2026" - these are metadata. The rules say fold minor metadata into a short

        or drop it. I could include a "Details" section or fold into a paragraph. Probably drop or fold into a short paragraph at end. The EEO statement is boilerplate - remove. The "What We Believe" and "Our Commitment" sections are company culture - could be part of About the role or separate. I'll include in About the role. Now, let me write the HTML. I need to be careful: no markdown code fences, just raw HTML. Let me draft:
