Automation Engineer

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes description about company, benefits, schedule, position summary, core responsibilities, experience/education/qualifications. We need headings:

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include sections with real content. We have schedule: Monday to Friday 8:30am to 5:00pm with occasional off-hour support. So we can have Schedule section. Benefits: they list many benefits: competitive benefits with HMO/PPO options, company 401k match, Employee Stock Purchase Program, tuition reimbursement, leadership development, 16 days PTO plus holidays, wellness courses, employee resource groups. So Benefits section. Pay: not mentioned. So omit Pay. About the role: maybe we can have a brief intro about the role? The posting includes "Position Summary" and "Core Responsibilities". Could treat "About the role" as position summary. Or we could have "Position Summary" as About the role. We'll include About the role with the position summary paragraph. Responsibilities: list core responsibilities as

• . Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: The posting has "Experience, Education and Qualifications:" with bullet-like sentences. We need to split into sections: Requirements (maybe education/experience), Qualifications (maybe specific qualifications), Skills (maybe programming, etc). But we need to avoid thin sections. Could combine into one "Qualifications" section covering education, experience, skills. However the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we have: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must remove boilerplate like EEO etc. Not present. We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's extract: About the role (Position Summary): "The Automation Engineer role plays a critical role in helping to support the clinical laboratory’s general operations. This role’s primary responsibility is to maintain, troubleshoot, and deploy automation. The Automation Engineer works closely with laboratory operations, scientific staff, quality management, and a variety of other departments to support automated workflows, troubleshoot instrumentation issues, assist with new programming and deployment, and contribute to automation and technology improvement initiatives. This role promotes adherence to safety protocols, monitors equipment performance, and ensures compliance with regulatory requirements, maintaining a high level of operational reliability and efficiency within the laboratory." Responsibilities (Core Responsibilities list): - Support troubleshooting and resolution of issues associated with deployed automated workflows and laboratory automation systems in a molecular testing environment - Assist in the development, testing, validation, and deployment of new automated workflows by translating manual laboratory processes into reliable, scalable, and reproducible automated solutions - Collaborate with the molecular operations team, biomedical engineering team, and external vendors to ensure timely resolution of software and equipment issues to minimize operational downtime - Train operators on the proper utilization and maintenance of automated instrumentation, ensuring smooth and efficient functionality throughout the laboratory - Support the implementation, qualification (IQOQPQ), and integration of new software and equipment and advanced technologies into existing workflows - Assist with the creation, execution, and maintenance of qualification, validation, and technical documentation related to automated instrumentation and methods - Evaluate new automation technologies, instruments, and software solutions, and provide recommendations regarding their potential application and value within laboratory operations (not exclusive to molecular) - Develop proficiency in new software platforms, automation systems, and laboratory technologies to support evolving operational needs - Identify opportunities for continuous improvement and contribute innovative ideas that enhance efficiency, quality, throughput, and laboratory performance - Maintain clear and effective written and verbal communication with stakeholders across laboratory, engineering, quality, and support functions - Ensure compliance with internal and external regulations (e.g., CLIA, CAP, FDA, ISO) - Drive continuous improvement and recommend corrective actions where needed Qualifications (Experience, Education and Qualifications): We need to capture all bullet-like sentences: "Bachelor’s degree in engineering, biological sciences, or related technical field or equivalent work experience required" "2+ years in laboratory, diagnostics, or manufacturing engineering preferred" "Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills" "Proficiency in programming languages for laboratory-based automation (ex. Hamilton Venus, Python)" "Demonstrate familiarity with molecular laboratory software, equipment, and systems, particularly Hamilton Liquid Handlers" "Basic understanding of molecular workflows such as NGS, PCR/qPCR, and nucleic acid extraction" "Demonstrate excellent organizational skills and work independently in a fast-paced environment" "Work in a biohazard environment and follow all safety protocols" "Support evenings, weekends, holidays, and on-call shifts as needed" "Apply strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills" (duplicate) "Understand CAP/CLIA and FDA (GCP or GLP as appropriate) requirements" "Computer proficiency with Microsoft Word and Excel and have a familiarity of working with LIMS" "Ability to sit and/or stand for long periods of time" "Must be able to lift up to 50 pounds" We should deduplicate duplicates like "Apply strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills" same as earlier. We'll keep one. We'll format as
  • each. Benefits: - Highly competitive benefits with a variety HMO and PPO options - Company 401k match - Employee Stock Purchase Program - Tuition reimbursement - Leadership development - 16 days of paid time off plus holidays - Wellness courses - Highly engaged employee resource groups Schedule: - Monday to Friday 8:30am to 5:00pm - With the occasional off-hour support We should not include fluff like "We believe in career development..." etc? That's part of company culture but not a specific section; we could include in About the role? Might be considered boilerplate? It's not a standard heading; but we could incorporate into About the role paragraph as part of company description. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The culture statements are not boilerplate; they are substantive about company. Could include in About the role or maybe a separate "About the company" but we don't have heading for that. We could incorporate into About the role paragraph after position summary. Thus About the role paragraph could include both position summary and company culture/mission statements. Let's craft About the role paragraph: "NeoGenomics offers a purpose-driven mission to save lives by improving patient care through exceptional work, aiming to become the world's leading cancer reference laboratory. The Automation Engineer role plays a critical role in supporting the clinical laboratory’s general operations. This role’s primary responsibility is to maintain, troubleshoot, and deploy automation. The Automation Engineer works closely with laboratory operations, scientific staff, quality management, and a variety of other departments to support automated workflows, troubleshoot instrumentation issues, assist with new programming and deployment, and contribute to automation and technology improvement initiatives. This role promotes adherence to safety protocols, monitors equipment performance, and ensures compliance with regulatory requirements, maintaining a high level of operational reliability and efficiency within the laboratory." That captures mission and role. Now produce HTML:

    Make sure no extra whitespace? It's fine. Check for any duplicated lines: we removed duplicate skill line. Check for any boilerplate: we omitted "Come join the Neo team and be part of our amazing World Class Culture!" maybe we could include in About the role? It's a bit fluff but could be considered company culture. Might be okay to include in About the role paragraph as part of mission. But we already have mission statement. Could add "Come join the Neo team and be part of our amazing World Class Culture!" but that's somewhat promotional. Might be considered boilerplate? Not exactly legal. I'd keep it out to be safe. Check for any mention of Pay: none. Check for any mention of "Not only do we provide career coaches internally, but we offer many training opportunities to expand your knowledge base!" That's a benefit (training). Could add to Benefits as "Internal career coaches and training opportunities". We have leadership development but not explicitly training. Could add "Internal career coaches and training opportunities". Let's add that. Also "We have highly competitive benefits with a variety HMO and PPO options." Already captured. Also "We have company 401k match along with an Employee Stock Purchase Program." captured. Also "We have tuition reimbursement, leadership development, and even start employees off with 16 days of paid time off plus holidays." captured. Also "We offer wellness courses and have highly engaged employee resource groups." captured. Also "We believe in career development and empowering our employees. Not only do we provide career coaches internally, but we offer many training opportunities to expand your knowledge base!" Add to Benefits. Thus Benefits list: - Highly competitive benefits with a variety of HMO and PPO options - Company 401k match - Employee Stock Purchase Program - Tuition reimbursement - Leadership development - Internal career coaches and training opportunities - 16 days of paid time off plus holidays - Wellness courses - Highly engaged employee resource groups Now ensure we didn't miss any responsibilities: we have list of 12 items.
