Engineering$53.89/hrFull-time
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 where there is real specific content. We have salary details: $53.89 - $53.89 Hourly (so a single hourly rate). That is Pay info. So we can include Pay section with that. Benefits: there is a Benefits section with Insurance, Retirement, Vacation, Paid Holidays, note about 10/11 month basis. So include Benefits. Schedule: Not explicitly given. There's note about 10 or 11 month basis, but that's about schedule length? Might be considered schedule? The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. The posting mentions "NOTE: Positions in this job classification may be offered on a 10 or 11 month basis - salary and paid time off for 10 or 11 month positions will be adjusted accordingly." That's about schedule (months). Could be considered schedule info. However schedule section is optional; we could include Schedule with that note. But we need to see if it's specific enough. It says may be offered on a 10 or 11 month basis. That's specific. So we can include Schedule. About the role: There's "Information About Lausd" describing LAUSD. That's about the organization, not exactly role. But we could treat as About the role? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can include About the role with the LAUSD description. Responsibilities: Job Duties/Responsibilities section with list of duties. So include Responsibilities. Requirements: Education MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS, Experience, Special Physical Requirements. That's requirements. Qualifications: Desirable Qualifications. Skills: maybe not separate; but we could combine desirable qualifications as Skills? The instruction says we can use Skills heading if there is content. There's no explicit skills list besides desirable qualifications (knowledge and ability). Could treat as Skills. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc. We must remove boilerplate: application filing dates, application process, EEO, etc. Also remove navigation, legal, etc. So we keep only substantive info: About LAUSD, Responsibilities, Requirements (Education, Experience, Special Physical Requirements), Qualifications (Desirable), Skills (maybe same as Qualifications?), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the exact text? We can keep the substance but not necessarily verbatim? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Means we should not omit details, but we can rephrase? Safer to keep the original sentences/phrases. We'll produce HTML with sections. Let's extract content: About the role (LAUSD description): "We are LAUSD. We are at the forefront of innovation in public education, focused on a clear and inspiring vision of the future for all of our students as they venture forward on their journey as lifelong learners. Here, you will have the opportunity to exercise your potential in a role supporting the business of education. Our work directly contributes toward the goal of ensuring that our students graduate ready for the world – ready to thrive in college, career and life. LAUSD is the second largest school district in the nation with an enrollment of nearly 575,000 students. We serve an area totaling 710 square miles, with over 1,190 schools and educational centers, and we employ over 74,000 individuals, making us one of the largest employers in our city." That's the paragraph. Responsibilities: list of duties. The text: "A Brass and Percussion Instrument Technician repairs, overhauls, adjusts and tunes a variety of brass and percussion instruments. Some of the core responsibilities may require that a job incumbent: Repairs, overhauls, adjusts and tunes, washes, and cleans brass and percussion instruments, including hornets, trumpets, trombones, sousaphones, euphoniums, French horns, tubas, helicons, mellophones, orchestra bells, song bells, autoharps, drums, tympanies, xylophones, marimbas, and alto, tenor, and baritone horns.Repairs mouthpieces, slides, valves, valve keys, tubing, and waterkeys.Performs soft and silver soldering, brazing, and burnishing. Replaces felt and cork bumpers and pads.Repairs and replaces drumheads, rods, hooks, and snares.Tunes percussion instruments.Repairs instrument cases.Fabricates or modifies parts." We need to split into list items. Could make each sentence as
  • . But we need to preserve all detail; we can break into items. Let's list: - Repairs, overhauls, adjusts and tunes, washes, and cleans brass and percussion instruments, including hornets, trumpets, trombones, sousaphones, euphoniums, French horns, tubas, helicons, mellophones, orchestra bells, song bells, autoharps, drums, tympanies, xylophones, marimbas, and alto, tenor, and baritone horns. - Repairs mouthpieces, slides, valves, valve keys, tubing, and waterkeys. - Performs soft and silver soldering, brazing, and burnishing. - Replaces felt and cork bumpers and pads. - Repairs and replaces drumheads, rods, hooks, and snares. - Tunes percussion instruments. - Repairs instrument cases. - Fabricates or modifies parts. That's all. Requirements: Education MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS: "Graduation from high school or evidence of equivalent educational proficiency." Experience: "Two years of experience in the repair of brass and percussion instruments. Completion of a music instrument repair certificate, diploma, or equivalent credits from an educational institution may substitute for one year of the required experience." Special Physical Requirements: list: "Auditory acuity as required to inspect instruments to meet specificationsVisual acuity as required to inspect and repair instrumentsManual dexterity as required to make repairs of small items and operate machinesSafely lift and carry items weighing up to 85 poundsA valid driver’s license to legally operate a motor vehicle in the State of California and the use of a motor vehicle, or the ability to utilize an alternative method of transportation." We need to separate into list items. Let's parse: It seems missing spaces. We'll separate by each requirement: - Auditory acuity as required to inspect instruments to meet specifications - Visual acuity as required to inspect and repair instruments - Manual dexterity as required to make repairs of small items and operate machines - Safely lift and carry items weighing up to 85 pounds - A valid driver’s license to legally operate a motor vehicle in the State of California and the use of a motor vehicle, or the ability to utilize an alternative method of transportation. Qualifications (Desirable): "The ideal candidate for this position will possess the knowledge of: Principles of construction of brass and percussion instrumentsPertinent safety orders issued by the California Division of Industrial Safety and safety practices related to musical instrument repairMethods, materials, and tools, such as lathes, drill presses, and honing machines, used in the repair, overhaul, and adjustment of instruments Further, the ideal candidate will also possess the ability to: Use hand and power tools, including drills, lathes, honing machines, and ultrasonic machinesRead and understand instruction manuals and parts catalogsMake computations of labor and parts costsKeep legible recordsWork effectively with District personnel" We need to split into knowledge and ability items. Knowledge: - Principles of construction of brass and percussion instruments - Pertinent safety orders issued by the California Division of Industrial Safety and safety practices related to musical instrument repair - Methods, materials, and tools, such as lathes, drill presses, and honing machines, used in the repair, overhaul, and adjustment of instruments Ability: - Use hand and power tools, including drills, lathes, honing machines, and ultrasonic machines - Read and understand instruction manuals and parts catalogs - Make computations of labor and parts costs - Keep legible records - Work effectively with District personnel Skills: Could be same as abilities? But we might not need separate Skills if we already have Qualifications. However instruction allows Skills section; we could put the abilities under Skills. But we already have Qualifications (Desirable). To avoid duplication, we could treat Qualifications as knowledge and Skills as abilities. But the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine knowledge and abilities under Qualifications and omit Skills. But we need to include all substantive info; we can put both knowledge and abilities under Qualifications as sub-items. That's fine. Thus we have Qualifications section with both knowledge and ability items. Benefits: text: "Benefits Insurance: Paid premiums for your choice of several medical, dental, vision, and life insurance plans. Retirement: Membership in the California Public Employee Retirement System (CalPERS). Vacation: Full-time employees earn up to two weeks of paid vacation to start. Three weeks after five years of year-round paid service. Paid Holidays: Up to 13 days. NOTE: Positions in this job classification may be offered on a 10 or 11 month basis - salary and paid time off for 10 or 11 month positions will be adjusted accordingly." We need to split into list items. - Paid premiums for your choice of several medical, dental, vision, and life insurance plans. - Membership in the California Public Employee Retirement System (CalPERS). - Full-time employees earn up to two weeks of paid vacation to start; three weeks after five years of year-round paid service. - Up to 13 paid holidays. - Positions may be offered on a 10 or 11 month basis; salary and paid time off adjusted accordingly. Pay: "$53.89 - $53.89 Hourly". So we can put that as a paragraph. Schedule: The note about 10 or 11 month basis is already in Benefits; but we could also put Schedule section with that note. However to avoid duplication, we could keep it only in Benefits. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. The posting states the note under Benefits. So we can keep Schedule omitted, as the info is already in Benefits. But we might still include Schedule if we want to highlight. However duplication is not prohibited but we should avoid redundant sections. Better to keep only Benefits. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. Now produce HTML. We'll wrap each section in

    heading then content. For lists:
