We need to output HTML fragment with sections using for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Need to parse posting.
Content:
- Intro paragraph about AEI: "Join a Team Where Engineering Excellence Drives Opportunity At Affiliated Engineers, Inc. (AEI), we bring together expertise and innovation..." This is about the company, not role. Could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" would be description of role. The posting includes "Why We Need You" and description of tasks. So we can have sections: About the role (maybe summarizing role description), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits. Pay and Schedule not mentioned, so omit.
We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is "Building Performance Consultant I". Not to be used as heading.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, cookie/navigation, etc. Remove duplicated lines.
We need to extract specifics:
From posting:
- "As a Building Performance Consultant I in our Gainesville office, you will help us empower our clients to achieve energy-efficient building solutions, save global environments, and create a better, greener future for all."
- "Why We Need You In this role, you will work with our building performance practice team to help evaluate building and system design strategies. The emphasis will be on using building, CFD, and daylight simulation tools to help inform design, as well as document performance compared to accepted standards. The Building Performance Consultant I will also work to educate clients, architects and engineers on new technologies and innovative solutions."
Thus responsibilities: evaluate building and system design strategies; use building, CFD, daylight simulation tools to inform design; document performance vs standards; educate clients, architects, engineers on new tech and innovative solutions.
Also maybe "help us empower our clients to achieve energy-efficient building solutions, save global environments, and create a better, greener future for all." That's more of a purpose.
Now "Expertise Of Our Most Successful Building Performance Consultant I" list:
- Bachelor’s degree in mechanical, electrical, or architectural engineering (or another engineering discipline) from an accredited program; or commensurate degree and experience with building systems.
- General understanding of building systems across disciplines and fundamental knowledge in at least one discipline such as HVAC, plumbing/piping, electrical, lighting, instrumentation and controls, or building envelope systems.
- Fundamental understanding of major tenets of high-performance design including renewable and alternative energy strategies, daylighting, embodied energy, indoor environmental quality, material composition, water efficiency, life cycle assessment, and built environment planning.
- Ability to use at least one building system simulation tool, including EnergyPlus, IES-VE, TRNSYS, DOE-2 (eQuest), TRACE, CFD, or Radiance, for consulting and analysis.
- Experience in computer operation for building system analysis and engineering calculation programs.
- Ability to learn CAD/BIM software as necessary for building performance analysis and consulting.
These could be Requirements or Qualifications. Usually Requirements = education/experience; Qualifications = certifications etc. But we can split.
"Effective Skills To Help You Flourish" list:
- Industry certification applicable to building performance including but not limited to AEE CEM, ASHRAE HPDP, ASHRAE BEMP, ASHRAE BEAP, Green Globes Professional, or LEED AP.
- Passed the Fundamentals of Engineering exam (FE).
- Knowledge of or ability to learn application programming language (C++, Ruby, Python, Visual Basic, etc.)
- Ability to access BIM Models.
- Strong spoken and written communications skills.
- Excellent organization and time management skills.
- Quick technical comprehension and motivation focused on client outcomes.
- Ability to prioritize multiple tasks.
- Effective working individually and within team environments.
These are Skills.
Now "When You Work Here, You Can Expect" paragraph:
- A flexible, collaborative environment where your well-being matters—because your best work happens when you’re supported.
- Real opportunities to grow—through mentorship, professional development programs, and exposure to high-impact projects across disciplines.
- To collaborate with inspiring teammates who challenge the status quo, foster innovation, and pave the way for future leaders.
- A benefits package that offers health, dental, vision, and retirement, a performance-based year-end bonus, and thoughtful perks tailored to your needs—whether that's a flexible work environment, wellness resources, or community-focused initiatives, we’ll continue to invest in.
Thus Benefits: health, dental, vision, retirement, performance-based year-end bonus, flexible work environment, wellness resources, community-focused initiatives.
No explicit Pay or Schedule.
Now "About the role" maybe combine intro and why we need you. Could be a paragraph summarizing role: "As a Building Performance Consultant I in our Gainesville office, you will help us empower our clients to achieve energy-efficient building solutions, save global environments, and create a better, greener future for all. In this role, you will work with our building performance practice team to help evaluate building and system design strategies.

Now we need to output HTML fragment only, with headings and appropriate - for lists,
for prose.
We need to decide which sections to include: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits. Possibly combine Requirements and Qualifications? But we have distinct lists: Expertise (education, understanding, ability to use tools, experience, CAD/BIM) could be Requirements. Effective Skills list could be Skills. Could also have Qualifications for certifications and FE exam etc. Actually "Effective Skills To Help You Flourish" includes certifications, FE exam, programming language, BIM access, communication, organization, etc. That seems like Skills. The earlier "Expertise Of Our Most Successful Building Performance Consultant I" includes degree, understanding, ability to use simulation tools, experience, CAD/BIM. That seems like Requirements/Qualifications. We could treat that as Requirements. And maybe Qualifications could be certifications etc. But we already have certifications in Skills list. Might be better to have Requirements (education, experience, technical abilities) and Skills (soft skills, certifications, programming). Let's follow that.
Thus:

We must not include Pay or Schedule sections.
Check for any duplicated lines: we have not repeated.
Check for any boilerplate removed: we removed EEO, application instructions, etc.
Check for any placeholder text: we didn't include any "commensurate with experience" as a heading; we used it inside a list item as part of requirement, which is okay because it's substantive.
Check for any invented detail: we didn't invent.
Check for preserving all substantive information: Did we miss any? Let's review original text for any other specifics:
- "Join a Team Where Engineering Excellence Drives Opportunity At Affiliated Engineers, Inc. (AEI), we bring together expertise and innovation to solve the most complex challenges. Since 1978, we’ve supported mission-driven organizations in designing systems and environments that advance society and improve lives.

This is company overview. Could be part of About the role? Might be considered "About the company" but we only have headings for About the role, Responsibilities, etc. The instruction: "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It doesn't forbid adding other headings, but says use those for section headings. It didn't say we cannot add other headings, but we should prefer those. The company overview could be placed under About the role as a preamble. However, the instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." It didn't forbid adding other headings like About the company. But the list of example headings includes About the role, not About the company. It might be okay to include About the role only. The company overview is substantive but not directly about the role; however it's still relevant to the job posting. Could be
