We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where there is real specific content. No placeholder. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate like EEO, navigation, etc. No job title heading. No Job ID. No application instructions. No cookie/legal. We need to parse the posting. Content: Position Summary: paragraph about role. Key Responsibilities: bullet list (but in text). We'll need to convert to
  • . Qualifications: list of qualifications. Physical and Work Environment Requirements: maybe part of Requirements? Could be separate "Physical and Work Environment Requirements". Could be under Requirements or separate. About Thompson Engineering: description of company. We need sections: About the role (maybe position summary?), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have no explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule info. So we should NOT include those sections unless posting actually states them. There's no mention of benefits, pay, schedule. So we omit those sections. We have Skills: maybe we can extract from qualifications: proficiency with Microsoft Office, digital reporting, communication skills, etc. Could be a Skills section. We have Requirements: maybe include qualifications and physical requirements. We need to decide sections: About the role (position summary), Responsibilities, Requirements (including qualifications? but we also have Qualifications separate). The instruction says use headings for those specific labels. We can include both Qualifications and Requirements if content exists. Let's extract: About the role: Position Summary paragraph. Responsibilities: list of key responsibilities. Qualifications: list: Current CWI certification, HS diploma or equivalent, associate degree preferred, minimum 3 years experience preferred, working knowledge of codes, understanding of welding processes, proficiency with MS Office and digital reporting, strong written/verbal communication, valid driver's license clean record, ability/willingness to travel frequently and work extended hours. Skills: maybe overlapping with qualifications: proficiency with MS Office, digital reporting, communication skills, etc. But we could put those under Skills. However we must not duplicate content. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all info somewhere. If we split qualifications and skills, we must ensure not to lose any info. Could combine qualifications and skills into one section? But headings are prescribed; we can still include both if we split content appropriately, ensuring no duplication. We have "Physical and Work Environment Requirements": ability to work outdoors, stand, lift 50 lbs, flexible hours, overtime, travel. That could go under Requirements (maybe as a subsection). But we need to follow headings: we can have a Requirements section that includes both qualifications and physical requirements? Or we could have Requirements for qualifications and a separate Physical and Work Environment Requirements? Not in list of allowed headings. Allowed headings are only those listed: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we must map content to those. Thus: - About the role: Position Summary. - Responsibilities: Key Responsibilities. - Qualifications: Certification, education, experience, knowledge, etc. - Skills: Proficiency with MS Office, digital reporting, communication skills, driver's license, travel willingness? Actually travel willingness maybe more requirement. But we can put driver's license and communication under Skills. - Requirements: Physical and Work Environment Requirements (ability to work outdoors, stand, lift, flexible hours, overtime, travel). Also maybe minimum 3 years experience? But that's already in Qualifications. To avoid duplication, we need to decide where each piece goes. We must not duplicate content. So we need to split the info without overlap. Let's list all substantive info bullets: From Position Summary: - Thompson Engineering seeking motivated detail-oriented CWI. - Perform welding inspections ensuring compliance with codes, specs, standards across SE construction/industrial projects. - Requires ability/willingness to travel to project sites, multi-state assignments, work in field environments as needed to support active construction. Key Responsibilities (list): - Perform visual welding inspections per codes (AWS, ASME, API, etc.) - Verify compliance with approved WPS and PQR - Confirm welder qualifications and maintain required documentation - Interpret construction drawings, welding symbols, technical specs - Document inspection findings, non-conformances, corrective actions - Coordinate and monitor NDT activities as required - Prepare daily field reports, inspection summaries, supporting documentation - Travel to various job sites, including out-of-town and multi-state assignments, as required - Follow established safety policies and quality control procedures - Communicate effectively with project managers, field staff, contractors, clients Qualifications: - Current CWI certification issued by AWS - HS diploma or equivalent required; associate degree in welding tech or related field preferred - Minimum 3 years welding inspection experience preferred - Working knowledge of applicable welding codes such as AWS D1.1, API 1104, ASME Section IX - Strong understanding of welding processes and inspection techniques - Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications and digital reporting systems - Strong written and verbal communication skills - Valid driver's license with a clean driving record - Ability and willingness to travel frequently and work extended hours based on project needs Physical and Work Environment Requirements: - Ability to work in outdoor and construction site environments - Ability to stand for extended periods and navigate uneven terrain - Ability to lift up to 50 pounds and perform field-related tasks - Willingness to work flexible hours, including overtime and travel assignments, based on project needs About Thompson Engineering: - Founded 1953, provides QA and professional services for construction projects supporting industrial, infrastructure, community development. - Services include drilling, materials testing, construction inspection, chemistry lab services, engineering design, environmental assessments, surveying, geotechnical studies, construction management. - Recognized for leadership on projects that define skylines, coastlines, transportation networks across Southeast. - From planning/design through construction/completion, deliver innovative solutions to complex infrastructure and building challenges for industrial, commercial, transportation, federal, municipal clients. EEO boilerplate to remove. Now we need to map to sections. About the role: Position Summary paragraph (maybe combine with About Thompson Engineering? Actually "About the role" is about the role, not company. So we use Position Summary for About the role. Responsibilities: list of responsibilities. Qualifications: maybe include certification, education, experience, knowledge of codes, understanding of welding processes, etc. Skills: proficiency with MS Office, digital reporting, communication skills, driver's license, travel willingness? But travel willingness also appears in Physical and Work Environment Requirements. We need to avoid duplication. Let's decide: Put travel willingness and ability to work extended hours under Requirements (physical). Put driver's license under Skills? Or maybe under Qualifications? Actually driver's license is a qualification. Could be under Qualifications. But we already have many qualification items. We could put driver's license under Qualifications as well. But then Skills would be just MS Office, digital reporting, communication skills. That's okay. Requirements: Physical and Work Environment Requirements (outdoor, stand, lift, flexible hours, overtime, travel). Also maybe ability to work in field environments as needed (already in Position Summary). But we can include that. We must not duplicate: travel willingness appears both in Qualifications (under "Ability and willingness to travel frequently and work extended hours based on project needs") and Physical and Work Environment Requirements ("Willingness to work flexible hours, including overtime and travel assignments, based on project needs"). They are similar but slightly different phrasing. To avoid duplication, we need to choose one place for travel/willingness. Since Qualifications already includes travel willingness and extended hours, we could omit that from Physical and Work Environment Requirements, but we still need to include the other physical requirements: outdoor, stand, lift, flexible hours, overtime. However flexible hours and overtime also overlap with travel willingness. We could keep flexible hours and overtime under Requirements, and note travel willingness under Qualifications. That avoids duplication. Thus: Qualifications includes: CWI cert, HS diploma/associate preferred, 3 years experience preferred, knowledge of codes, understanding of welding processes, proficiency with MS Office/digital reporting, strong written/verbal communication, valid driver's license clean record, ability/willingness to travel frequently and work extended hours. Skills: maybe we could treat MS Office, digital reporting, communication skills as Skills. But they are already in Qualifications. To avoid duplication, we need to decide where each piece goes. We could move MS Office, digital reporting, communication skills to Skills, and remove them from Qualifications. Then Qualifications would contain cert, education, experience, code knowledge, welding processes understanding, driver's license, travel willingness. That seems reasonable. Let's list Qualifications after moving those: - Current CWI certification issued by AWS - HS diploma or equivalent required; associate degree in welding technology or related field preferred - Minimum 3 years of welding inspection experience preferred - Working knowledge of applicable welding codes such as AWS D1.1, API 1104, ASME Section IX - Strong understanding of welding processes and inspection techniques - Valid driver's license with a clean driving record - Ability and willingness to travel frequently and work extended hours based on project needs Skills: - Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications and digital reporting systems - Strong written and verbal communication skills Requirements (Physical and Work Environment): - Ability to work in outdoor and construction site environments - Ability to stand for extended periods and navigate uneven terrain - Ability to lift up to 50 pounds and perform field-related tasks - Willingness to work flexible hours, including overtime and travel assignments, based on project needs But note travel assignments appears again in Requirements; we already have travel willingness in Qualifications. To avoid duplication, we could remove travel from Requirements and keep only flexible hours and overtime. However the phrase "Willingness to work flexible hours, including overtime and travel assignments, based on project needs" includes travel. If we remove travel, we lose that detail. But we already have travel willingness in Qualifications (ability/willingness to travel frequently and work extended hours). That covers travel. So we can adjust Requirements to: Ability to work in outdoor and construction site environments; Ability to stand for extended periods and navigate uneven terrain; Ability to lift up to 50 pounds and perform field-related tasks; Willingness to work flexible hours, including overtime, based on project needs. (Travel omitted as covered.) Now About Thompson Engineering: we could put under a section? Not in allowed headings. Could we put under About the role? No, that's for role. There's no heading for company description. But we must preserve ALL substantive information. If we cannot create a heading not in list, we need to embed it somewhere else, maybe as a paragraph under About the role? But that would mix role and company. However instruction: "Use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., implying those are examples but we should use those headings for sections. It doesn't say we cannot add other headings, but likely they expect only those headings. The instruction: "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". It doesn't forbid other headings, but the examples are given. Safer to stick to those headings. Where to put company description? Could be part of About the role? Not ideal but maybe we can include a brief paragraph about the company under About the role as context. However the role summary already mentions Thompson Engineering seeking... The company description is separate. We could add a paragraph after the role summary but before responsibilities, still under About the role heading? That would mix. But maybe acceptable. Alternatively, we could create a heading "About Thompson Engineering" but it's not in the list. The instruction says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The "e.g." suggests those are examples, not an exhaustive list. So we could use other headings if needed.
