Associate or Full Professor (Ladder/In-Residence) Transplantation Science
for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (EEO, legal, etc). Must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must only include sections where posting has real specific content.
Let's parse the posting:
- Position overview: includes Position title, Salary range, Application Window dates, etc. We need to decide which sections to include.
We have Salary range info: base pay range $120,200 - $345,00 (typo missing a digit? but we keep as given). Also mention salary negotiated annually, additional compensation if part of Health Sciences Compensation Plan, link to UC Salary scales. That's pay info. So we can have a Pay section.
We have Application dates: open date, review date, final date. That could be Schedule? Or maybe we treat as Schedule? The instruction: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So Schedule could include dates. We'll include Schedule section with dates.
We have About the role: description of department, center, responsibilities. That fits About the role.
Responsibilities: The posting mentions responsibilities: developing and maintaining independent extramurally funded research program, collaborate with other departments, providing high-quality training and teaching. Also mention appointment level based on background, series 50% Ladder Rank/50% In-Residence etc. That's responsibilities.
Requirements: Could be basic qualifications? Actually qualifications separate. We'll have Requirements maybe for required qualifications? But we also have Qualifications section. The instruction list includes both Requirements and Qualifications. We need to decide what to put where. Usually Requirements are mandatory qualifications; Qualifications could be preferred. We'll put basic qualifications under Requirements, and preferred qualifications under Qualifications (or maybe Skills). But we also have Skills section; we could put preferred qualifications there. However we have explicit "Preferred Qualifications". So we can put that under Qualifications (or Skills). Since we have both Requirements and Qualifications headings allowed, we can put basic qualifications under Requirements, and preferred qualifications under Qualifications. Skills maybe not needed; we can omit if no specific skills listed besides those implied.
Benefits: Not mentioned besides Health Sciences Compensation Plan mention (limitations). No explicit benefits like health insurance, retirement. So we should not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It mentions "As a member of the Health Sciences Compensation Plan, the appointee should be aware that there are limitations on outside professional activities, and clinical moonlighting is expressly prohibited." That's not a benefit but a condition. So we skip Benefits.
Pay: we have salary range etc.
Schedule: we have dates.
About the role: we have description.
Responsibilities: we have responsibilities.
Requirements: basic qualifications.
Qualifications: preferred qualifications.
We might also include a short paragraph for metadata like position title? But instruction says do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it). So we shouldn't include position title as heading. But we could include it in a paragraph? Probably not needed; we can omit.
We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details: department, center, research areas, collaborative environment, responsibilities, appointment series, links, qualifications (basic and preferred), application requirements (documents: CV, cover letter, optional COVID-19 Impact Statement, reference requirements 3-5 contact info, apply link, help contact). Also mention UC San Diego info? The boilerplate about equal opportunity etc should be removed. Also remove navigation/legal/EEO etc. So we need to keep the substantive info: Department link, Center link, etc. Also mention "As a member of the Health Sciences Compensation Plan, the appointee should be aware that there are limitations on outside professional activities, and clinical moonlighting is expressly prohibited." That's a condition; we could include under Responsibilities or maybe a separate section like "Conditions". But we only have allowed headings; we could put it under Responsibilities as a note. Or under About the role? Probably under Responsibilities.
Also mention "The appointment at the Associate or Full Professor level will be based on the candidate’s background and experience. The series will be 50% Ladder Rank/50% In-Residence with secured extramural funding or 100% Ladder Rank." That's responsibilities or qualifications? It's about appointment type; could be under Responsibilities.
Also mention links to full descriptions of each series.
Also mention "Department: http://pathology.ucsd.edu/" and "Center: https://pathology.ucsd.edu/research/center-for-transplantation-science/index.html". Keep those.
Also mention "Application Requirements Document Requirements Curriculum Vitae - Your most recently updated C.V. Cover Letter Misc / Additional (Optional) COVID-19 Impact Statement ..." and "Reference Requirements 3-5 required (contact information only)". Also "Apply link: https://apol-recruit.ucsd.edu/JPF04615" and "Help contact: lnmedina@health.ucsd.edu". Keep those.
Also mention "About UC San Diego" but that's mostly boilerplate EEO etc; we should remove that. The only substantive maybe none. So we can omit About UC San Diego entirely.
Now we need to output HTML fragment with sections only when we have content.
Let's outline:

We might also need a section for Application Instructions? Not allowed; we must remove application instructions. But we need to preserve substantive info like apply link and help contact. Where to put? Could be under a generic section like "Application Details" but not in allowed headings. The instruction says use those headings for section headings; but we could still include awith apply link and help contact maybe under About the role? But that seems odd. Perhaps we can include a
after sections with that info, not under a heading. The instruction: "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So we can include a short
for metadata like apply link and help contact, not as a heading. That's allowed.
Thus after sections we can add a
with apply link and help contact.
Now we need to ensure we preserve all substantive info.

Responsibilities (maybe separate from About the role):
We could list:
