We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Duties (maybe "Responsibilities"? The posting says Duties. Use for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. The posting has Duties, Requirements, Qualifications, Additional information (which includes many details). We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
We must not repeat job title. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. The posting includes many paragraphs; we need to preserve all substantive info.
We need to create sections: maybe "Responsibilities" for duties, "Requirements" for conditions of employment, "Qualifications" for who may apply and experience, "Additional Information" maybe not a standard heading; but we could incorporate into Requirements or Qualifications? The instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. So we can include sections for Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, maybe Benefits? The posting mentions benefits: "A career with the U.S. government provides employees with a comprehensive benefits package..." but it's generic; not specific benefits listed. It says "Contact the hiring agency for more information on the specific benefits offered." That's vague; we should not create Benefits section unless specific benefits are stated. So skip Benefits.
Pay: The posting says "Salary includes applicable locality pay or Local Market Supplement." That's specific enough? It mentions salary includes locality pay. That's a pay detail. So we can include Pay section with that sentence.
Schedule: Not mentioned; maybe travel 25% but not schedule. So skip Schedule.
Skills: Not explicit; maybe not.
Thus sections: Responsibilities (Duties), Requirements (Conditions of employment), Qualifications (Who may apply, experience, etc.), Pay (Salary includes locality pay). Possibly also "Additional Information" could be merged into Requirements or Qualifications but we have specific content like trial period, selective service, citizenship, direct deposit, TDY, security clearance, etc. Those are more like requirements/conditions. Could put them under Requirements. The Qualifications section already includes who may apply, experience definitions. Additional info includes trial period, selective service, citizenship, direct deposit, TDY, security clearance, etc. Those are also requirements/conditions. So we can combine them into Requirements.
Thus we will have:

- ... each duty as li
We need to preserve all substantive info from Duties paragraph. It's a long paragraph with multiple sentences; we can split into list items each duty.
Similarly Requirements: list each condition.
Qualifications: list who may apply, experience definition, etc.
Pay:
Salary includes applicable locality pay or Local Market Supplement.
We must not include markdown fences. Just raw HTML. Let's extract duties: Original Duties paragraph: "Serves as subject matter expert and independently performs a variety of work within three general budgetary areas: (1) budget execution; (2) review and analysis; and (3) financial reconciliation.Performs analysis and evaluation of programmed versus actual budgetary execution for the attainment of program objectives.Monitors work activity and results, provides advice and assistance, and trains other budget analysts within the office.Ensures reoccurring and known requirements are submitted into the budget execution process and financial reconciliation.Analyzes budget estimates and supporting data in the General Fund Enterprise Business System (GFEBS) provided by assigned staff elements.Provides recommendations to ensure compliance with regulatory, legal limitations and restrictions within the resource programs.Develops budget estimates for mission support, maintenance, personnel travel, and civilian pay by researching, compiling, and summarizing data required during the formulation of the annual budget.Interprets program and dollar guidance received from higher headquarters, HQDA, DOD, DFAS and other national intelligence agencies.Performs liaison and coordination with representatives of various government agencies and elements within INSCOM.Provides advice and assistance to staff budget analysts and major subordinate command budget analysts on budget execution, reprogramming of funds and reconciliation of accounts." We can split into bullet points each sentence. Now Requirements: Conditions of employment paragraph: "Appointment may be subject to a suitability or fitness determination, as determined by a completed background investigation.In accordance with Change 3 to AR 600-85, Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Program, individual must successfully pass a urinalysis screening for illegal drug use prior to appointment and periodically thereafter.Must be willing to undergo and successfully complete a counterintelligence-scope polygraph examination with No Deception Indicated (NDI) on a pre-appointment and periodic basis.All INSCOM employees may be subject to extended TDY or worldwide deployments during crisis situations to perform mission essential functions as determined by management.Position requires approximately 25% travel in the performance of duties.Certification Level 2: THIS IS A FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT Level 2 Certified position designated as such in accordance with the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) 2012, Public Law 112-81.This certification requirement is a condition of employment for this position.

Eligibility for benefits depends on the type of position you hold and whether your position is full-time, part-time or intermittent. Contact the hiring agency for more information on the specific benefits offered." We need to keep substantive info, but remove boilerplate like EEO etc. The above includes many details that are relevant: trial period, selective service, citizenship, direct deposit, TDY, security clearance, DoD referral system, reemployed annuitant info, PCS tax, advanced hire, incentives, leave accrual, RA requests, commitment statements, benefits generic. We should keep all that but maybe condense into list items under Requirements. Pay section: we already have salary line; also there is mention of "Salary includes applicable locality pay or Local Market Supplement." That's same as pay. We should not duplicate.
