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 that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the job posting. Key parts: - Intro about Copia: description of company. Could be "About the role"? Actually "Job Description" section. The description includes responsibilities etc. We can structure:

About the role

maybe include brief description: Copia is seeking an Associate, Permitting to support permitting and environmental compliance efforts... etc. But we must not repeat job title as heading. The heading "About the role" is fine. Then responsibilities: list of duties. Then qualifications: Minimum Qualifications. Then maybe Skills: "What We Look For" includes skills/attributes. Benefits: "Our Benefits:" list. Pay: There's a "Compensation:" paragraph but it's vague: "At Copia, we carefully consider a wide range of factors when determining compensation, including your skills, qualifications, location, and experience. This role may also be eligible for benefits, performance bonuses, and other perks." This is not specific numbers, but it's still content about compensation. The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state compensation paragraph, albeit vague. Should we include Pay section? It says "Compensation:" with description. It's not a specific number but it's still stating compensation considerations. The rule: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state compensation, albeit generic. I'd include a Pay section with that paragraph. Schedule: Not mentioned besides ability to work in office min 3 days per week, travel up to 25%. That's schedule-ish but not explicit schedule like full-time/part-time. Could be considered schedule? The rule: only include Schedule if posting actually states them. It mentions ability to work in office min 3 days per week, travel up to 25%. That's schedule-related. Could include Schedule section with that info. But we need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". The compensation paragraph is not filler; it's actual content. So include. Now we need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose use

    . We need to preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to drop boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also drop "We are partnering with select search firms..." etc. Also drop "About Copia" maybe? That's substantive about company; could be part of About the role or separate About Copia? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we could have About the role (includes company description and role summary). Responsibilities (list). Requirements (maybe combine Minimum Qualifications?). Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements?). Actually they list Minimum Qualifications. Could be Requirements. Skills: "What We Look For". Benefits: list. Pay: compensation paragraph. Schedule: office/travel. We must not repeat job title as heading. So we won't have heading "Associate, Permitting". Good. We need to ensure we don't include duplicated lines. Let's extract content. Company description: "Copia Power (“Copia”) is a Carlyle-backed energy and digital infrastructure platform that develops, constructs, and operates large-scale assets across the U.S. to accelerate the electrification and growth of the digital economy. Copia Power has over 2,600 MW of energy generation and storage assets in operation or under construction and is actively developing over 15 GW of grid-connected data centers supported by Copia’s portfolio of gigawatt-scale energy campuses comprising more than 25 GW of solar and storage and 7 GW of natural gas generation assets. At Copia, we pride ourselves on a culture where sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. We are dedicated to making a meaningful impact on the environment, and we believe that achieving this goal requires not just hard work but also enjoying the journey. Our team thrives on connectivity, fostering strong relationships across all levels of the organization. Together, we combine passion and playfulness to drive progress and make a difference." Role summary: "Job Description Copia is seeking an Associate, Permitting to support the permitting and environmental compliance efforts of our utility-scale renewable energy, data center, transmission, and natural gas generation projects. The ideal candidate will be responsible for managing the execution phase of Copia’s projects (i.e., late-stage development through the full construction lifecycle and into operations)." We can combine that into About the role. Now responsibilities: list after "Duties include but are not limited to overseeing construction/environmental compliance; construction financing and EPC contracts; coordinating with EPCs and local, state, and federal agencies; monitoring compliance deadlines and reporting requirements; and maintaining accurate permitting/compliance records and project trackers." Then after that paragraph, there is a list of Key Responsibilities (starting with "Support the team through responsible development..."). We need to capture all responsibilities as list items. Let's extract responsibilities bullet points: - Support the team through responsible development, construction, and operation of utility-scale solar generation facilities and battery energy storage systems; transmission infrastructure; data centers, and natural gas generation facilities across the US. - Ensure our projects meet all environmental and regulatory requirements from development through construction and into operations. - Oversee permitting and entitlement for a portfolio of projects and perform environmental-related due diligence, planning, permitting, and compliance for large-scale energy projects. - Collaborate with internal project teams such as real estate, development, engineering, and construction management; external teams like environmental and engineering consultants, and external legal counsel; and external stakeholders such as private landowners, state/federal resource agencies, and conservation organizations. - Maintain documentation demonstrating compliance with permit conditions and regulatory requirements, track mitigation measures, environmental commitments, and reporting obligations. - Assist internal engineering, construction and finance teams with documentation, tracking, obtaining, and maintaining construction permits (e.g., grading permits, building permits, water use agreements, etc.). - Develop technical, cost effective, and practicable solutions for design, execution and close out; overcome permitting obstacles throughout the project life, including permits, design, execution and close out. - Manage consultants providing preconstruction environmental surveys, which include reviewing proposals, coordinating survey schedules, and ensuring survey methodologies follow wildlife agency input and satisfy permit conditions/project needs. - Review technical reports provided by consultants.

That's a lot. We'll put them in

    • . Now Requirements/Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications list: - 3+ years professional experience, of permitting and environmental compliance portfolio and program management in renewable energy, data centers, and/or transmission infrastructure. - 3+ years of experience with related local, state, and federal environmental regulatory policies and business practices and procedures. - In-depth knowledge of pertinent environmental statutes, regulations, permitting processes, approval criteria, and protocols. - Knowledge of system design, construction, and maintenance practices for both gas and electric operations. - Experience managing multiple projects and multi-project portfolios. - Experience with EPCs, EPC/vendor management, and an understanding of permit conditions, how to interpret them, and how to ensure compliance. - Experience supporting permit closeout and compliance documentation for lenders or audits. - Trusted communication skills, and proven ability to interact and present solutions to all levels within an organization. - Undergraduate or graduate degree in environmental sciences, geography, or related field - Proven experience with Microsoft Office, including advanced proficiency in PowerPoint & Excel - Experience with project management software - Ability to work in the Dana Point, CA, Lake Oswego, OR, Salt Lake City, UT, or Phoenix, AZ office a minimum of 3 days per week. - Ability to travel up to 25% - Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States without employer sponsorship. - We are partnering with select search firms for this role and are not accepting inquiries or candidates from additional third-party agencies or recruiters. (This is more about hiring process; maybe we drop as boilerplate? It's not EEO but it's about recruiter policy. Might be considered boilerplate? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This is about recruiter policy; maybe keep? It's not exactly application instructions but it's about third-party agencies. Could be considered part of hiring process; but maybe we drop as it's not substantive about the role. I'd drop it to keep focused. Now Skills/Attributes: "What We Look For" paragraph list: - Organized and collaborative self-starter with keen attention to detail, with the ability to handle multiple projects at various stages of development, construction, and operations. - Ability and desire to maintain a complete and organized project record to demonstrate compliance with local, state, and federal regulations and permit conditions. - Ability to identify and communicate project needs, schedules, and risks across project support teams. - Work collaboratively and efficiently with internal teams and external parties (e.g., consultants) to execute project work on schedule and develop strategies to address environmental-related issues. - Ability to communicate effectively in verbal and written correspondence. - Highly driven with problem-solving abilities, integrity, and strong work ethic. - Proactive mindset with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. - Ability to work effectively within a rapidly changing organization. - Demonstrated collaborative partnerships with peers, management, and vendors. - Resourcefulness and polite persistence.

Pay: compensation paragraph: "At Copia, we carefully consider a wide range of factors when determining compensation, including your skills, qualifications, location, and experience. This role may also be eligible for benefits, performance bonuses, and other perks. We encourage all interested candidates to apply." We'll put as

          under Pay heading. Schedule: office/travel: "Ability to work in the Dana Point, CA, Lake Oswego, OR, Salt Lake City, UT, or Phoenix, AZ office a minimum of 3 days per week. Ability to travel up to 25%". Also maybe mention "Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States without employer sponsorship." That's eligibility not schedule. We'll keep schedule as those two sentences. Now About Copia section: we
