Assistant Professor of Engineering

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 if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Important info: - Title: Assistant Professor of Engineering (but we should not repeat as heading) - Department: Engineering Science in Gupta College of Science and Engineering at Coastal Carolina University - Position Type: PFAC - Slotted Faculty Full or Part Time Full-Time Basis 9 mo. - Start date: Fall 2027 (Desired Start Date 08/16/2027) - Job Details: description of role: tenure-track position, Ph.D. in Mechanical or Electrical engineering or closely related field required. Proven expertise and research interests in automation and robotics or autonomous systems required. Special preference for interdisciplinary qualifications. Must be teacher-scholars establishing research agendas involving undergrads, teach intro engineering courses and upper-level courses in area of expertise. Engage engineering students through active advising and mentoring of extracurricular groups. Start-up funds available to establish research agenda that incorporates undergrads. University description etc. - Required Qualifications: Must hold appropriate terminal degree or meet alternative qualifications, exhibit strong potential for excellence in teaching. - Preferred Qualifications: Post-doctoral experience preferred. - Knowledge, Skills & Abilities: Current knowledge and mastery of demonstrable skills in area of expertise with ability and willingness to effectively communicate them to students and colleagues is required. - Posting Sponsorship Designation: Employer-based sponsorship may be considered. - Work Authorization & Sponsorship: Employment contingent upon authorization to work in US. CCU may consider employer-based visa sponsorship for certain positions; sponsorship discretionary, not guaranteed, subject to legal, financial, institutional requirements. CCU rarely sponsors part-time, temporary, staff or non-tenure-track roles and will not sponsor H-1B petitions when the federally required $100,000 fee applies. - Pay: Not given. There's Pay Grade 0? Actually "Pay Grade 0" appears early. But we should not include Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says "Pay Grade 0". That is a specific pay grade? Might be considered pay info. However guidelines: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state Pay Grade 0. So we could include a Pay section with that info. But also "Pay Grade 0" maybe meaningless. But it's stated. We'll include a

maybe. - Schedule: "Full-Time Basis 9 mo." That's schedule info: 9-month basis. So we can include Schedule section. - Benefits: Not mentioned explicitly. No benefits details. So omit Benefits. - About the role: we can have a section summarizing the role. - Responsibilities: list of duties (job duties). We have multiple job duty bullet points: Teaches students in classroom/lab; Prepares content, syllabi, Moodle site; Communicates to students after reviewing assignments; Calculates and assigns grades; Tracks and reports absences; Posts and holds regular office hours; Engages in University-related activities; Conducts research to create and add knowledge; Trains students in related research techniques; Performs other duties as assigned. We can put these in

• . - Requirements: maybe required qualifications: Ph.D. in Mechanical or Electrical engineering or closely related field; proven expertise and research interests in automation and robotics or autonomous systems; teacher-scholar establishing research agenda involving undergrads; teach intro and upper-level courses; engage students via advising/mentoring extracurricular groups. - Qualifications: maybe preferred qualifications: post-doctoral experience preferred; interdisciplinary qualifications/experience preferred. - Skills: Knowledge, Skills & Abilities: current knowledge and mastery of demonstrable skills in area of expertise with ability and willingness to effectively communicate them to students and colleagues. We could combine some. We must not repeat job title as heading. Do not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We can include minor metadata in short

  or drop it. For example, Posting Number F00509P, etc. Could be dropped or placed in a short paragraph. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details: like start date, department, college, university description, etc. We need to include them somewhere. We need to avoid boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we should remove the EEO statement, the "Inquiries about the positions should be directed to Roi Gurka..." maybe that's not boilerplate? It's contact info; could be considered application instructions? Might be considered contact for inquiries; but guidelines say remove application instructions. The contact for inquiries might be considered part of application instructions? Safer to drop it. Also remove "Interested candidates ... should submit a letter of application..." etc. That's application instructions; remove. Also remove "Screening of applications will begin..." etc. Remove. Also remove "Posting Sponsorship Designation Will Employer-based sponsorship be considered for this position? Yes" maybe keep as part of sponsorship info. We need to keep substantive info: department, college, university description, start-up funds, etc. Let's craft sections:

  Schedule

  Full‑time, 9‑month basis.

  We might also include a short paragraph for metadata like posting number etc. Could be placed after schedule maybe as a

  but not as heading. The instruction: "do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it." So we can add a

  with posting number, desired start date, etc. But we already included start date in About the role. Could add a

  for posting number and maybe vacancy count. Let's add after Schedule:

  Posting Number: F00509P; Vacancies: 1; Desired Start Date: 08/16/2027.

  We must ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, etc. We removed those. Check for any duplicated lines: we didn't repeat. Check for any placeholders like "commensurate with experience" - none. Check for any missing substantive info: we included department, college, university description? We omitted the longer description of Coastal Carolina University, Gupta College, etc. That is substantive info. Should we include? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to include that description. Where to put? Could be in About the role or a separate section like "About the University". But we only have allowed headings list; we could add a section like "About the Department/University" but not in list. However we could incorporate into About the role paragraph. We need to include details: Coastal Carolina University is a public comprehensive liberal arts institution located in Conway, South Carolina, just nine miles from the Atlantic coastal resort city of Myrtle Beach. Enrolls over 12,000 students from 48 states and 53 nations. Accredited by SACS to award baccalaureate and master’s degrees, specialist degree in instructional technology, and PhD degrees in marine science: coastal and marine systems science and education sciences. Gupta College of Science and Engineering works to provide premier experience-driven STEM education, etc. Also mention Burroughs and Chapin Center for Marine and Wetland Studies. We should incorporate that into About the role or maybe a separate section "About the Department/University". Since only allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could add a section "About the Department" but not in list; maybe we can still use

  for any section heading? The instruction: "use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., implying those are examples but not exclusive? It says "use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect only those headings. But we could still add another heading like "About the University" but might be considered not following instruction. Safer to embed that info within About the role paragraph. Thus we need to incorporate all that info into About the role paragraph without making it too long but preserving details. We'll include sentences about university location, enrollment, accreditation, college mission, etc. Let's craft About the role paragraph:
