We must not include Schedule section. Check for any boilerplate leftover: We removed EEO, application statements, etc. Also removed "Program Overview RDG..." we incorporated into About the role. Ensure we didn't repeat any lines like "Peraton is a next-generation national security company..." That's company description maybe not needed. We could include a brief about Peraton in About the role? Might be considered filler but it's substantive about the company. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we should keep the company description? It's about Peraton, not the role. But we have a section About the role; we could include a brief about Peraton as part of that. However the company description is generic; maybe we can keep it as part of About the role. It's substantive. Let's include a paragraph about Peraton. Thus About the role section: include both company overview and role specifics. Let's rewrite About the role:About the role

That preserves company description and role specifics. Now ensure we didn't include any filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Check for any duplicated lines: we have not. Now output only HTML fragment. Let's produce final answer.
