We need to remove boilerplate: EEO statement, ITAR/EAR statement, recruiting company, primary location, schedule, job level, job type, travel, relocation, worksite, job posting date, etc. Also remove "We are on a journey..." maybe not boilerplate? It's cultural statement but maybe considered fluff but not boilerplate. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The cultural statement may stay? It's not specifically listed as boilerplate but could be considered fluff. However we should preserve substantive information. The cultural statement is not essential job details but maybe we can keep as part of About the role? It's not required but we can include if we want. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can combine.
We need sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe Qualifications), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We have content:
Intro: "We’re more than aviation experts, we’re pioneers. We challenge what’s possible. From breaking the sound barrier to advanced tiltrotor systems.

Structural Test Lab Bring your experience and ideas to assemble and run custom-designed test machines for fatigue and static test aircraft components. This role is integral to Bell's success to verify the structural integrity of helicopter components."
That's about the role.
Responsibilities: "What you’ll be doing as a Structural Test Lab - Associate Technician Accountable for construction, assembly, installation, checkout and operation of various test machines and fixtures per Engineering Laboratory Operating Procedures and Engineering Instructions. Contained in these tasks are requirements for record keeping, documentation, and helicopter component assembly/installation.Additional functions include the performance of acceptance tests, proof loading structural equipment for safety, manufacturing work aids, preparing laboratory test procedures, and calibrating data acquisition sensors.Responsible for completion of tasks within a set budget and schedule, as defined by the Manager, Test Technicians.Interact with test engineers and other laboratory technicians to ensure that assigned Mechanical Systems Test Laboratory test program requirements in the lab facilities are fulfilled.Interact with personnel in other laboratories to ensure a coordinated effort is maintained on assigned tests involving other laboratories.Interact with Manufacturing, Transportation, Maintenance, Quality, Dispatching, Tooling and various other departments of Bell Textron to ensure continued support of assigned tasks."
Requirements/Qualifications: "What you need to be Successful: High School Diploma or equivalent.

We could split into Requirements (education/experience) and Skills (tools, physical, communication). But we can combine.
Benefits: "What We Offer You In Return You’ll be off every other Friday with our 9/80 work schedule80 hours of Personal Time Off (PTO)120 hours Vacation time12-13 paid holidays per year6 weeks parental leave Tuition reimbursementCompetitive salaryComprehensive health insuranceOn-site clinic, pharmacy, physical therapy, and licensed counselor Access to more than 11 Employee Resource GroupsAnd so much more"
Pay: "Competitive salary" is mentioned but not specific. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state competitive salary (though vague). It also states schedule: 9/80 work schedule (off every other Friday). So we can include Pay and Schedule sections.
But we need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". "Competitive salary" is vague but still stated. Should we include? The instruction: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. "Competitive salary" is stated, albeit vague. It's not placeholder like "commensurate with experience"? It's similar but maybe acceptable. However they said avoid filler/placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". "Competitive salary" is similar but not exactly those examples. Might be okay. But we could decide to omit Pay section because it's not specific. However they said "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state competitive salary, so we could include. But we risk being considered filler. I'd lean to include Pay with just that line.
Schedule: "You’ll be off every other Friday with our 9/80 work schedule". That's specific.
Benefits: we have many specifics.
We also have location: onsite in Fort Worth, TX. Could be part of About the role.
We need to avoid duplication.
