Chief Marine Engineer
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. 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. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences.
We need to parse the posting and extract sections.
Key content:
- Opening line: "*** IN ORDER TO BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS POSITION CANDIDATE MUST BE SERVING PERMANENTLY IN THE TITLE OF CHIEF MARINE ENGINEER OR REACHABLE ON CIVIL SERVICE LIST, EXAM # 6023/6517.***" This is a requirement (eligibility). Could be part of Requirements.
- Then: "Under the general direction of the Senior Port Engineer, Port Engineer or other superior officer, supervises and directs the operation of the main propulsion and auxiliary equipment of diesel or diesel-electric powered ferry boats; ensures compliance with agency standard operating procedures, standing orders, and applicable local, state and federal rules and regulations; performs related work."
- Then "Examples Of Typical Tasks" with bullet-like sentences.
List of tasks:
- Supervises and directs all members of the below-deck team.
- Supervises and directs the operation, maintenance, and minor or emergency repair of the main propulsion equipment, boilers, auxiliaries, electrical equipment, steering pumps, and fuel, oil, urea and waste tanks on Staten Island Ferry boats.
- Performs all duties of inspection officer and team leader below deck.
- Supervises and directs the care, storage, and use of fuel on board the ship.
- Ensures that machinery and auxiliary systems are operated in accordance with United States Coast Guard and American Bureau of Shipping rules and regulations, Staten Island Ferry safety management system requirements, and NYC DOT departmental regulations.
- Keeps records and makes reports.
Then:
- MMC REQUIREMENT: Merchant Mariner Credential (MMC) with endorsement and medical certificate must be maintained for the duration of employment.
- TWIC REQUIREMENT: At the time of appointment, candidates must possess a valid Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) issued by the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA). A valid TWIC must be maintained for the duration of employment.
- MEDICAL/DRUG TESTING REQUIREMENTS: Medical guidelines established by the U.S. Coast Guard apply to the position of Chief Marine Engineer. Candidates will therefore be required to undergo a medical examination prior to appointment and thereafter, pursuant to Coast Guard regulations. Candidates must also pass a drug screening to be appointed. Chief Marine Engineers are subject to random drug and alcohol testing during their employment.
Then "TO APPLY: ..." which is application instructions, to be removed.
Then "HOURS/SHIFT: 40 hours/variable, including nights/weekends"
"WORK LOCATION: 1 Bay Street, Staten Island, NY 10301"
"Pay Scale 0 - 1 years in title: $145,799 1 - 2 years in title $154,522 2 - 3 years in title $167,511 3 - 4 years in title $175,473 4+ years in title $180,281"
Then "CHIEF MARINE ENGINEER ENGINEER - 91522 Minimum Qualifications A valid license for Chief Engineer of Motor Vessels of any H.P. issued by the United States Coast Guard Inspection Service; or an equivalent license in motor vessels issued by the United States Coast Guard Inspection Service. This license must be maintained for the duration of employment."
Then "55a Program This position is also open to qualified persons with a disability who are eligible for the 55-a Program. Please indicate at the top of your resume and cover letter that you would like to be considered for the position through the 55-a Program."
Then "Residency Requirement New York City Residency is not required for this position"
Then "Additional Information The City of New York is an inclusive equal opportunity employer committed to recruiting and retaining a diverse workforce and providing a work environment that is free from discrimination and harassment based upon any legally protected status or protected characteristic, including but not limited to an individual's sex, race, color, ethnicity, national origin, age, religion, disability, sexual orientation, veteran status, gender identity, or pregnancy."
Then at end: ", $145,799.00 – $180,281.00"
We need to remove boilerplate: EEO statement, application instructions, maybe the "Additional Information" EEO is boilerplate, remove. Also remove "TO APPLY:" etc. Remove "Most public libraries have computers..." etc.
We need to keep substantive info: eligibility requirement (must be serving permanently in title of Chief Marine Engineer or reachable on civil service list, exam #). That's a requirement.
We need sections: maybe "About the role" (general description), "Responsibilities" (tasks), "Requirements" (eligibility, MMC, TWIC, medical/drug testing, license, 55a program, residency), "Pay" (pay scale), "Schedule" (hours/shift), maybe "Work Location" could be part of About the role or separate? The instruction only lists certain headings but we can use others? It says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It suggests those are examples but we could also add others if needed? It says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". It doesn't forbid other headings, but to be safe we could stick to those examples. However we have location info; could be part of About the role or maybe we could add a "Work Location" heading but not in examples. Safer to incorporate location into About the role paragraph.
We also have "55a Program" and residency requirement; could be part of Requirements or Qualifications.
We have "Minimum Qualifications" about license; could be Qualifications.
We have "MMC REQUIREMENT", "TWIC REQUIREMENT", "MEDICAL/DRUG TESTING REQUIREMENTS" - these are requirements.
We have eligibility (civil service list) - requirement.
Thus we can have sections:
- About the role (general direction, purpose)
- Responsibilities (list of tasks)
- Requirements (eligibility, MMC, TWIC, medical/drug testing, license, 55a program, residency)
- Qualifications (maybe license? but we already covered license in Requirements; maybe we can combine)
- Pay (pay scale)
- Schedule (hours/shift)
We should not create Benefits section because none given.
We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to preserve all substantive info.
