We need to output HTML fragment with sections: 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. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the job description. Key sections: - About the role: description of role, context, etc. Could be the first paragraph(s) before responsibilities. - Responsibilities: bullet list of duties. - Requirements: maybe education minimum requirement? Or required experience and skills? The posting includes "Education Minimum Requirement", "Required Experience And Skills", "Desired Experience And Skills", "Required Skills", "Preferred Skills". Also "Requirements" heading later includes EEO etc but we should ignore. We need to map to headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what goes where. Typically: About the role = overview. Responsibilities = list of duties. Requirements = education and experience required. Qualifications = maybe desired experience? Skills = required/preferred skills. Benefits = benefits description. Pay = salary range. Schedule = maybe travel %, flexible work arrangements, shift, relocation, etc. We have: Relocation: No relocation; VISA Sponsorship No; Travel Requirements 10%; Flexible Work Arrangements Not Applicable; Shift Not Indicated; Valid Driving License No; Hazardous Material(s) N/A. Also "Employee Status Regular". So schedule info: Travel 10%, no relocation, no visa sponsorship, flexible work arrangements not applicable, shift not indicated. Could include that. We must not include sections with placeholder like "not specified". We have actual data for Pay (salary range). Benefits: comprehensive package described. Schedule: we have travel %, flexible work arrangements not applicable, shift not indicated, relocation no. That's substantive enough. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Also remove "Current Employees apply HERE", etc. Remove application instructions, links, etc. Remove "Job Posting End Date", etc. Remove "Search Firm Representatives". Remove "Our company is committed to inclusion..." etc. Remove "As an Equal Employment Opportunity Employer..." etc. Remove "The fastest way to breakthrough innovation..." etc. Remove "Learn more about your rights..." etc. Remove "San Francisco Residents Only..." etc. Remove "Los Angeles Residents Only..." etc. Remove "Employee Status Regular Relocation: No relocation VISA Sponsorship No Travel Requirements 10% Flexible Work Arrangements Not Applicable Shift Not Indicated Valid Driving License No Hazardous Material(s) N/A". Actually that is substantive for schedule/relocation etc. We'll keep relevant bits. We need to output only HTML fragment, no or . Use

for section headings. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for "Associate Specialist – MACS Process/Facility Engineer". We'll start with About the role. Let's extract About the role: The first paragraph(s) before "Responsibilities of the Associate Specialist – Process/Facility Engineer include the following:" That is: "Job Description Associate Specialist – MACS Process/Facility Engineer Description The Modality Agnostic Chemistry Scaleup (MACS) Operations group within the Chemical Engineering Research & Development (CERD) Department is seeking a highly motivated individual to work in a fast-paced job that provides a high degree of technical and project management responsibility. The Associate Specialist – Process/Facility Engineering position will report to an Associate Director, Engineering as a member of the MACS Operations Team at the Rahway NJ facility." We can combine into a paragraph. Now Responsibilities: The bullet list after "Responsibilities of the Associate Specialist – Process/Facility Engineer include the following:" Then a paragraph describing process engineer role etc. Then bullet-like sentences? Actually it's a paragraph with many details. We need to extract list of duties/responsibilities. The text includes many sentences describing responsibilities. We can turn each distinct responsibility into

  • . Let's parse: - Serve as a process team member supporting the MACS Center. - Work alongside peers in MACS Operations Team, Enabling Facilities group, SSO and Prep Lab, and key stakeholders in Process R&D, Analytical, Quality, Safety. - Instrumental in setting up this first-of-a-kind facility by ready for science target date of 2Q 2027. - Contribute to equipment and facility design, system commissioning/qualification, and other critical activity workstreams to enable facility startup and subsequent batch processing. - Be a key part of a team of process/facility engineers, supervisors, and operations specialists to drive work and foster culture of collaboration, learning, innovation. - Collaborate closely with development engineers & chemists, compliance and safety representatives, and other team members to ensure quality and safe delivery of clinical supplies, scientific rigor of processes, and enable flexibility and speed of pipeline. - Support facility operations, process development activities, support compliance investigations/change management, author GMP documentation and manage/lead engineers in any of our enabling facilities. - Provide direct support to other areas such as Small Scale Organics Pilot Plant (SSO) and Prep Lab Area (as described). We could also include the details about SSO and Prep Lab as separate responsibilities? Might be under "Additional Supported Areas". Could be separate bullet. We'll create a list. Now Requirements: Education Minimum Requirement: Bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Biology, Pharmaceutical Sciences or related scientific field. Also maybe "Required Experience And Skills" list. That could be under Requirements or Skills. We'll treat education as Requirements, and experience/skills as Skills. Qualifications: maybe "Desired Experience And Skills" could be Qualifications. Skills: Required Skills list and Preferred Skills list. Benefits: paragraph about comprehensive package. Pay: salary range. Schedule: travel %, relocation, flexible work arrangements, shift, etc. We must not include sections with placeholder like "not specified". We have actual data. Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Current Employees apply HERE", etc. Let's craft HTML. We'll start with

    About the role

    then

    ...

    . Then

    Requirements

    Bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Biology, Pharmaceutical Sciences or related scientific field.

    maybe also include something else? Could also include "Minimum Requirement" only. Then

    Qualifications

    • Desired experience and skills: Working in a GMP clinical or manufacturing supply facility; GMP facility design, equipment start-up and/or qualification; Small molecule drug substance and/or biologics process development; Supporting compliance investigations and change management; Familiarity with US and EU GMP and Safety compliance regulations; Ability to convert new drug substance process needs to an executable series of steps and procedures to enable acceptable product manufacture; Ability to prepare Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) and cGMP documents; Operating/maintaining pilot scale or prep lab scale equipment; Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) and/or Level of Protection Analysis (LOPA); Providing technical mentorship; Potent Compound processing and containment systems (e.g., isolators); Quality systems; Interacting with or overseeing the management of process utility system associated with a large drug substance pilot plant including WFI generation/distribution, Process Chillers, Vacuum Systems, etc.; Working in an environment with an Automation System (DeltaV, PLC, etc.); Coordinating maintenance activities around processing activities to support reliable facility operation.
    but we need each as separate
  • . Let's split. Then

    Skills

    we have Required Skills list: Chemical Engineering, Facility Engineering, GMP Compliance, Manufacturing Scale-Up, Pilot Projects, Process Engineering, Process Manufacturing, Process Scale Up, Standard Operating Procedure (SOP). Also Preferred Skills: maybe none? Actually "Preferred Skills" heading then list: "Current Employees apply HERE Current Contingent Workers apply HERE" that's not skills. Actually after "Preferred Skills" there is "Current Employees apply HERE Current Contingent Workers apply HERE". That seems misplaced. The original text: "Preferred Skills Current Employees apply HERE Current Contingent Workers apply HERE". That seems like a formatting error. Actually after "Preferred Skills" there is "Current Employees apply HERE Current Contingent Workers apply HERE". Then "US And Puerto Rico Residents Only". So maybe the Preferred Skills list is missing; maybe they intended to list but got cut. We'll ignore that as boilerplate. Thus Skills section could just be Required Skills list. We'll output as
    • Chemical Engineering
    • ... etc. Now Benefits:

      Benefits

      We offer a comprehensive package of benefits. Available benefits include medical, dental, vision healthcare and other insurance benefits (for employee and family), retirement benefits, including 401(k), paid holidays, vacation, and compassionate and sick days. More information about benefits is available at https://jobs.merck.com/us/en/compensation-and-benefits.

      But we must remove links? The instruction: remove application instructions, but benefits link maybe okay? It's not application instruction. However it's a URL. Might be considered navigation? Probably safe to keep but maybe better to remove URL as it's not substantive? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." The benefits link is not navigation? It's a link to more info. Might be considered navigation. Safer to remove the URL. Keep the description. Pay:

      Pay

      The salary range for this role is $71,900.00 - $113,200.00. This is the lowest to highest salary we in good faith believe we would pay for this role at the time of this posting. An employee’s position within the salary range will be based on several factors including, but not limited to relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, geographic location, government requirements, and business or organizational needs. The successful candidate will be eligible for annual bonus and long-term incentive, if applicable.

      We must not include boilerplate like "This is the lowest to highest salary we in good faith believe we would pay for this role at the time of this posting." That's substantive? It's explanatory but okay. Keep. Schedule:

      Schedule

      Travel Requirements: 10%. Relocation: No relocation. VISA Sponsorship: No. Flexible Work Arrangements: Not Applicable. Shift: Not Indicated. Valid Driving License: No. Hazardous Material(s): N/A.

      But we need to avoid placeholder like "Not Applicable", "Not Indicated", "N/A". The instruction says: "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. 'commensurate with experience', 'not specified', 'N/A', 'varies', 'TBD')". So we cannot include those placeholders. So we should only include substantive info. We have Travel 10% (substantive). Relocation: No relocation (substantive). VISA Sponsorship: No (substantive). Flexible Work Arrangements: Not Applicable (placeholder) -> omit. Shift: Not Indicated (placeholder) -> omit. Valid Driving License: No (maybe substantive? It's a requirement? Could be considered requirement but it's a "No". Might be considered placeholder? It's a fact: they don't require a valid driving license. Could be considered substantive but maybe it's a requirement. However it's a negative; still it's info. But the instruction about placeholder refers to filler like "N/A". "No" is not placeholder. So we can include. Hazardous Material(s): N/A is placeholder -> omit. Thus schedule
