We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Also remove application instructions, etc.
We need to parse the posting and extract relevant content.
Let's identify sections:
- About the role: description of position, reporting, purpose. The first paragraph: "The Human Services Agency (HSA) of County of San Mateo is seeking qualified Child Welfare Program Analyst (Human Services Analyst II) to join the Children and Family Services (C&FS) Branch. The CWPA will report to the Children and Family Services Administrative and Program Support Services Manager, and will support Child Welfare System Strategies and Contracted Services. The Child Welfare Program Analyst (CWPA) provides analytical, administrative, and project support for programs within Children and Family Services. This position requires independent judgment, strong organizational and analytical skills, and ideally a general knowledge of child welfare programs and practices. The CWPA may be assigned lead responsibility for projects and initiatives and will work closely with program managers, internal teams, community partners, and other stakeholders. CWS-CARES Go-Live: A key responsibility of this position will be serving as the lead analyst as part of the Organizational Change Management Team for CWS-CARES, the new child welfare Statewide case management system, scheduled to go-live December 7, 2026. Responsibilities will include developing and maintaining business process maps and implementation resources; providing on-site and over-the-shoulder support during and after go-live; maintaining SharePoint content and resource repositories; preparing communications, reports, and other project materials; and providing ongoing implementation support while adapting to evolving project needs, priorities, and timelines."
That's about role and responsibilities. Could split: About the role (general description) and Responsibilities (list). We'll need to decide.
- Responsibilities: list of duties: includes CWS-CARES lead analyst tasks, Program Support and Contracted Services tasks, Additional responsibilities (research, info, integration, communication, service agreements, reviewing state guidance, etc.), Duties may include, but are not limited to, the following: (list of many items). So we can combine all responsibilities into a
- .
- Requirements: maybe qualifications? The posting has "Qualifications Education and Experience:" and then details. Also "Knowledge of:" and "Skill/Ability to:" sections. Those could be Requirements and Skills.
- Skills: maybe the "Skill/Ability to:" list.
- Benefits: The posting mentions limited term employees receive medical and dental benefits, similar to regular employees, and a defined contribution retirement plan. That's benefits.
- Pay: Not mentioned. No pay info. So we should NOT include Pay section.
- Schedule: Not mentioned. No schedule info. So omit.
- Also maybe "About The County" at end but that's boilerplate; we should drop.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Already not.
We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers.
We must not include application instructions, etc.
We need to preserve all substantive information.
Let's extract content.
First, About the role: maybe a paragraph summarizing the role: The Human Services Agency (HSA) of County of San Mateo is seeking qualified Child Welfare Program Analyst (Human Services Analyst II) to join the Children and Family Services (C&FS) Branch. The CWPA will report to the Children and Family Services Administrative and Program Support Services Manager, and will support Child Welfare System Strategies and Contracted Services. The Child Welfare Program Analyst (CWPA) provides analytical, administrative, and project support for programs within Children and Family Services. This position requires independent judgment, strong organizational and analytical skills, and ideally a general knowledge of child welfare programs and practices. The CWPA may be assigned lead responsibility for projects and initiatives and will work closely with program managers, internal teams, community partners, and other stakeholders.
We could also include the CWS-CARES Go-Live note as part of responsibilities, but it's also role. We'll keep in responsibilities.
Now Responsibilities: list items:
From CWS-CARES Go-Live:

Program Support and Contracted Services:
- work with Program Managers to develop and maintain a variety of documents, including, but not limited to, scopes of work, request for proposals, written reports, data reports, performance metrics, and County forms

- Write reports and grant proposals and make presentations to boards, committees and other groups.
- Coordinate and conduct special events and projects.
- Develop and maintain computer files and generate reports.
- Perform related duties as assigned.
We should combine all into one list, but could be long. It's okay.
Now Requirements: maybe the "Qualifications Education and Experience:" section: "Any combination of education and experience that would likely provide the required knowledge, skills and abilities is qualifying. A typical way to qualify for a Human Services Analyst II is two years of experience performing journey level administrative and analytical duties in a human services or related agency."
That's a requirement.
Also maybe "Note: This is a limited-term, at-will assignment. Limited term employees are assigned to assignments not to exceed three years. They receive medical and dental benefits, similar to regular employees, and a defined contribution retirement plan. This recruitment may be used to fill future limited term positions." That's more about employment type and benefits; we already have benefits.
Now Knowledge of: list:
- Principles and practices of public administration.
- Principles and practices of the specific program area to which assigned.
- Principles and practices of contract development, negotiation and monitoring.
- Principles, practices and techniques of administrative and programmatic research and analysis.
- Applicable federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations and County and program policies and guidelines.
- Computer applications related to the work.
- Office administrative practices and procedures, including records management and the operation of standard office equipment.
These could be Requirements or Skills. Usually knowledge is part of Requirements.
Skill/Ability to: list:
- Develop and evaluate proposals and negotiate contracts and agreements.
- Develop, monitor and analyze budgets and program performance.
- Plan, coordinate and implement administrative and programmatic research and analysis.
- Analyze, interpret and apply various regulations and requirements.
- Train staff in work procedures and provide technical and programmatic assistance to staff and subcontractors.

- Establish and maintain effective working relationships with grantors, subcontractors, County staff, elected and appointed officials, the public and others.
- Communicate effectively, both orally and in writing.
- Compile and analyze data, draw sound conclusions and prepare and present effective reports.
- Exercise sound independent judgment within general policy and regulatory guidelines.
These are skills.
Thus we can have sections: Requirements (education/experience + knowledge), Skills (skill/ability list). Benefits (medical/dental, retirement). Possibly also include "About the role" as earlier.
We must not include sections with placeholder or generic like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /. Use
for section headings. Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose. We must ensure we don't include empty sections. Let's craft:
