We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real content.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions.
We need to preserve all substantive information.
Let's parse the posting:

We can treat this as "About the role" maybe. The posting includes a heading "Your Next Opportunity" then description. We'll create an
.
- Requirements: maybe combine "What You'll Need To Be Successful" and "What You Bring To Us"? But we need separate sections for Requirements and Qualifications. Let's assign:
Requirements: "What You'll Need To Be Successful" (skills, experience, abilities). This includes proficiency, GAAP understanding, analytical skills, leadership, managing priorities, integrity.
Qualifications: "What You Bring To Us" (education, CPA, years experience, industry experience, Workday experience).
- Skills: maybe we could extract technical skills from Requirements? But we might not need separate Skills if we already have Requirements covering skills. However the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Having Skills separate may be thin. Could combine Skills into Requirements. But we have both Requirements and Qualifications; we could keep those two and omit Skills.
- Benefits: list under "YOU Matter – Our Benefits". We'll create
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real content.

We can treat this as "About the role" maybe. The posting includes a heading "Your Next Opportunity" then description. We'll create an About the role
with that paragraph(s). Could also include "What You'll Do" as Responsibilities. "What You'll Need To Be Successful" as Requirements or Qualifications. "What You Bring To Us" as Qualifications maybe. Also Travel, Working Conditions maybe as separate sections? But we only include sections with real content. Travel: "Travel Up to 15% for site visits, regional office support, or professional development." That's a specific detail; could be under a "Travel" heading but not in list of allowed headings; allowed headings are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Travel could be part of Responsibilities or Requirements? Probably under Responsibilities? Not exactly. Could be under "Requirements" as a condition? Might be better to include under "Responsibilities" as a bullet? But it's not a duty. Could be under "Qualifications"? Not really. The instruction: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., meaning those are examples, not exclusive? It says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect us to use those headings only. So we should map content to those headings.
Thus we need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We have content for About the role (intro + role description). Responsibilities: "What You'll Do" list. Requirements: maybe "What You'll Need To Be Successful" (skills, experience). Qualifications: "What You Bring To Us" (education, certifications, experience). Skills: maybe we can extract from Requirements? But we already have skills in Requirements; but we could separate Skills section for technical skills like proficiency with software, Excel, GAAP, etc. However we must not create thin sections; better to combine.
We have Benefits: list of benefits.
Pay: not mentioned explicitly; they say "competitive compensation" but no specific numbers. According to rule: never create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says "competitive compensation" but not specific; that's vague. Should we include Pay? The rule: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It says "competitive compensation" is a statement but not specific amount. Is that considered stating? Likely not enough; they want actual numbers or range. So we should omit Pay.
Schedule: not mentioned; no schedule details. So omit Schedule.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills?, Benefits.
We need to decide whether to have Skills separate. The posting includes "Proficiency with enterprise-level accounting software...", "Deep understanding of GAAP...", "Strong analytical and problem-solving skills...", "Exceptional leadership and communication skills...", "Proven ability to manage multiple priorities...", "High degree of integrity...". Those could be Skills. But they are also under "What You'll Need To Be Successful". That could be considered Requirements. However we have also "What You Bring To Us" which includes education, CPA, years experience, industry experience, Workday experience. That's Qualifications.
Thus we can map:
- About the role: intro paragraphs up to "Your Next Opportunity" and the paragraph describing the role.
- Responsibilities: the bullet list under "What You'll Do". We'll convert each sentence into
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect us to use those headings only. So we should map content to those headings. Thus we need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have content for About the role (intro + role description). Responsibilities: "What You'll Do" list. Requirements: maybe "What You'll Need To Be Successful" (skills, experience). Qualifications: "What You Bring To Us" (education, certifications, experience). Skills: maybe we can extract from Requirements? But we already have skills in Requirements; but we could separate Skills section for technical skills like proficiency with software, Excel, GAAP, etc. However we must not create thin sections; better to combine.

According to rule: never create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says "competitive compensation" but not specific; that's vague. Should we include Pay? The rule: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It says "competitive compensation" is a statement but not specific amount. Is that considered stating? Likely not enough; they want actual numbers or range. So we should omit Pay. Schedule: not mentioned; no schedule details. So omit Schedule. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills?, Benefits. We need to decide whether to have Skills separate. The posting includes "Proficiency with enterprise-level accounting software...", "Deep understanding of GAAP...", "Strong analytical and problem-solving skills...", "Exceptional leadership and communication skills...", "Proven ability to manage multiple priorities...", "High degree of integrity...". Those could be Skills. But they are also under "What You'll Need To Be Successful". That could be considered Requirements. However we have also "What You Bring To Us" which includes education, CPA, years experience, industry experience, Workday experience. That's Qualifications. Thus we can map: - About the role: intro paragraphs up to "Your Next Opportunity" and the paragraph describing the role. - Responsibilities: the bullet list under "What You'll Do". We'll convert each sentence into
- for each benefit.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO statements, duplicated lines, legal, etc. Also remove "Rosendin is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer..." etc. Also remove "YOU Matter – Our Benefits" heading? We'll keep benefits content but not the heading as it's not an allowed heading; we'll just put
Benefits
then list. Also remove "Travel Up to 15%..." and "Working Conditions..." as they are not in allowed headings; but we could incorporate Travel into Responsibilities? Not exactly a duty. Could be under Requirements as a condition? Might be better to drop it because not fitting allowed headings and not essential? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we must keep Travel and Working Conditions info. But we cannot create headings outside allowed list? The instruction says usefor section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't explicitly forbid other headings, but says "use
for section headings (e.g....)". Likely they expect only those headings. However we need to preserve all substantive info; we could embed Travel and Working Conditions within existing sections, e.g., under Responsibilities as a bullet or under Requirements as a note. That would preserve info. Travel: "Travel Up to 15% for site visits, regional office support, or professional development." Could be a bullet under Responsibilities (maybe as part of duties). Or under Requirements as a condition. I'd put under Responsibilities as a bullet: "Travel up to 15% for site visits, regional office support, or professional development." Working Conditions: multiple sentences. Could be under Responsibilities as well, or under Requirements. I'd put under Responsibilities as a bullet list of conditions. Thus we will include Travel and Working Conditions as list items under Responsibilities. Now we need to ensure we don't include duplicated lines. The posting has duplicated EEO lines; we'll omit. Now craft HTML. Structure:
