We need to output HTML fragment with sections: h3 headings for sections present: "Essential Functions" maybe split into Design and Construction? The posting has sections: JOB DESCRIPTION DESIGN Essential Functions: ... Additional Responsibilities: ... CONSTRUCTION Essential Functions: ... Additional Responsibilities: ... QUALIFICATIONS ENGINEERING ... SPECIAL REQUIREMENT: ... ABOUT US ...
We need to use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). But we can also use other headings? The instruction: "use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). But we can also use other headings? The instruction: "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It suggests we should use h3 for those typical sections, but we can also use h3 for other headings? Probably we should map content to those headings where appropriate. The posting includes "Essential Functions", "Additional Responsibilities", "QUALIFICATIONS", "SPECIAL REQUIREMENT", "ABOUT US". We need to decide which sections to output.
We should not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. So we can have sections: Responsibilities (maybe combine Design and Construction essential functions?), Requirements (Qualifications), Skills (maybe from Desirable Knowledge And Skills), About Us.
We also have Special Requirement (license, driver's license, drug test). Could be part of Requirements or a separate section like Requirements.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to turn the bullet-like sentences into list items.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details.
We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. There's none obvious.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
Let's parse content:

- We invite you to be part of the team!
We need to decide sections. Likely sections: Responsibilities (combining Design and Construction essential functions and additional responsibilities), Qualifications (training/experience, desirable knowledge/skills), Special Requirements (license, driver's license, drug test, physical demands, work environment), About Us.
We should not create Pay/Benefits/Schedule sections because not present.
We need to use
for section headings. So each section heading wrapped in . Then content: for lists use - . For prose use
.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include each bullet as list item.
We need to avoid duplication: Additional Responsibilities appears twice (same text). We should not duplicate lines. So we can include it once.
We need to ensure we don't repeat the same bullet.
Let's craft:
Responsibilities
- Provide technical expertise as part of a design team responsible for the production of plans and specifications for the construction of District projects OR as part of a consultant contract management team responsible for coordinating the plans and specifications for the construction of District projects.
- Compile data.
- Check layout of manholes, inlet structures and pipelines, and calculate hydraulic properties of pipelines and drainage channels.
- Correlate information obtained from topographic and other maps and plans.
- Extend estimates.
- Process project information in preparation for construction bidding.
- Perform related civil engineering work.
- May investigate storm water, sanitary, and combined sewer complaints and recommend solutions to problems.
- May make necessary field inspections to determine existing conditions.
- May meet with government officials, consultants, and the general public to help define District policies and responsibilities.
- Provide technical expertise as part of a construction/contract management team responsible for the administration of the construction of collection system and/or facility improvement projects.
- Verify that the construction conforms to the contract documents.
- Evaluate/review change orders requests, contractor submittals and contractor claims and prepare technical reports concerning construction and engineering problems and solutions.
- Perform construction observation.
- Make necessary field inspections to determine existing conditions.
- May meet with government officials, consultants, and the general public to help communicate District policies and responsibilities.
- May perform related work as required or as delegated by supervisors.
But note we have duplicate "May make necessary field inspections to determine existing conditions." appears in both design and construction sections. Should we keep both? It's duplicated content; instruction says remove duplicated lines. So we should keep only one instance. Similarly "May meet with government officials, consultants, and the general public to help define District policies and responsibilities." vs "help communicate District policies and responsibilities." Slightly different wording; not exact duplicate. Keep both.
Also "May perform related work as required or as delegated by supervisors." appears twice (design and construction). Keep one.
Now Qualifications section: maybe split into Requirements and Skills? But we can have a single Qualifications section with sublists? The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we could have Requirements and Skills separate. But we have both training/experience and desirable knowledge/skills. Could map training/experience to Requirements, and desirable knowledge/skills to Skills. Let's do that.
Thus:
Requirements
- Bachelor's or master's degree from an accredited college or university with major course work in engineering; and four years of progressively responsible related engineering experience.
Skills
- Thorough knowledge of principles and practices of civil engineering: comprehensive knowledge of District regulations and procedures applicable to sewer construction.
- Problem solving and communication skills necessary to work effectively with contractors, engineers, developers, municipalities and MSD staff to ensure the successful completion of these projects.
- Considerable knowledge of spreadsheet, word processing and design software.
- Extensive skill in reading and interpreting complex engineering plans and specifications.
- Exceptional skill in maintaining records and preparing technical reports.
- Thorough skill in analyzing and integrating data.
- Considerable skill in communicating effectively both in oral and written form.
- Exceptional ability in forming and maintaining effective working relationships.
Now Special Requirements: Could be part of Requirements or a separate section like Requirements? But we already used Requirements for education/experience. Could add another section "Special Requirements". However instruction says use h3 for section headings (examples given). Not limited to those; we can use h3 for any section heading. So we can add Special Requirements
with list.
Include license, driver's license, drug test, not subject to DOT, proficient rating, physical demands, work environment.
But "Physical Demands" and "Work Environment" are headings within the special requirement block but no details given. The posting just says "Physical DemandsWork Environment" with no detail. That's likely placeholder; we should not create sections with filler text. Since there is no detail after those headings, we should omit them. The instruction: "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. 'commensurate with experience', 'not specified', 'N/A', 'varies', 'TBD')". So we should not include Physical Demands or Work Environment as headings if no detail. So we skip those lines.
Thus Special Requirements list:
- Licensed Professional Engineer in the State of Missouri, or the ability to obtain this license within six months of hire.
- Must possess a valid driver's license issued by the state in which the employee resides.
- Pursuant to MSD's "Substance Abuse Policy and Procedures," this position has been designated as safety sensitive and candidate must pass a Non-D.O.T. Drug Test for this position.
- Employees occupying this position are not subject to Federal (D.O.T.) Drug and Alcohol Testing Regulations.
- Employees of MSD must have a proficient or higher overall rating on last review.
Now About Us section: we can have About Us
with
paragraphs.
We need to preserve all substantive information: three sentences.
We can put them in a single
or separate
for each sentence. Use
for prose.
Thus:
