We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role (maybe from "About this opportunity"), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements/Qualifications (who you are), Benefits (total rewards), maybe Pay/Schedule only if present. The posting mentions schedule: "working offshore 12 hours per day on a 3 weeks on/ 3 weeks off rotation." That's schedule info. Also mentions location offshore, full-time permanent. So we can include Schedule section. Pay not mentioned, so omit Pay. Benefits: they list total rewards package details: Paid vacation, health & dental benefits, mental health coverage, life insurance, disability benefits, employee family assistance, virtual healthcare coverage. Also development philosophy etc. Could include Benefits section with those items. Also maybe "About the company" but not needed.

Ensure we don't repeat job title. Use for each section heading. Use

We must remove boilerplate: EEO, application instructions, etc. Also remove duplicated lines like repeated safety sensitive position paragraph. Keep substantive info.
