We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Use for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Key content:
- Position Location: description of Los Alamos. Could be part of "About the role" or maybe a separate "Location" but not in allowed headings. We could include location within About the role paragraph.
- Position Summary: description of role, responsibilities, etc.
- Essential Job Functions (list of bullet-like sentences). Could be part of Responsibilities or Requirements.
- Responsibilities/ Duties (list). Should be a

Key content:

- Position Summary: description of role, responsibilities, etc.
- Essential Job Functions (list of bullet-like sentences). Could be part of Responsibilities or Requirements.
- Responsibilities/ Duties (list). Should be a - .
- Education and Experience Required: details for Level 2 and Level 3. Could be under Requirements or Qualifications.
- Employee Referral Eligibility: maybe minor metadata, could be omitted or placed in a short p.
- Hard To Fill: Yes/No - minor metadata.
- Benefits and Salary: description of benefits package, starting salary commensurate with experience. So we can have Benefits section with
- for benefits, and Pay section? The instruction: only create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections if posting actually states them. Benefits are stated. Pay: "Starting salary will be commensurate with experience and education." That's vague but it's still stating something about pay. However instruction says: 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. The phrase "commensurate with experience and education" is similar to placeholder; it's not a specific number. Likely we should not create a Pay section because it's not specific. Benefits we can include.
- Business Associations: maybe not needed.
- Impact: maybe not needed.
- Working Conditions and Physical Requirements: could be part of Requirements or maybe a separate section? Not in allowed headings; we could incorporate into Responsibilities or Requirements.
- Safety, Security, and Quality: could be part of Responsibilities.
We need to decide sections: About the role (position summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (education/experience, maybe also skills), Qualifications (maybe license), Skills (maybe technical skills like Autodesk, Civil3D), Benefits.
We must not invent sections with filler. Use only those with real content.
Let's extract:
About the role: Position Summary paragraph: "N3B is currently seeking a Professional Civil / Structural Engineers 3/4 to support the design team as a lead design engineer on projects. The candidate will be responsible for developing plans and specifications following applicable standards. The candidate shall have an excellent understanding of the design process and ability to mentor other engineers. Assignments typically include a combination of on-site and office duties for various projects (e.g. highway/ transportation, structural, drainage, site development, and other public works improvements). Excellent communication and organizational skills are required as well as the ability to multi-task and work independently and in a team. Duties will also include communication with and coordination of other engineering disciplines, other company divisions, and consultants, as needed, to complete projects. The ideal candidate will be a licensed Professional Engineer, a self-starter who can multitask and pay close attention to detail. We are looking for someone with a detailed understanding of roadway, grading, drainage, structural, and utility design. While working to achieve N3B objectives, the successful candidate will: ensure all activities and operations are performed in a safe and deliberate manner through maintaining required safety, security, and operational training. Making safety, security and quality an integral part of every task including taking the necessary steps to pause or stop work as necessary to ensure the safety and security personnel and the job site."
That's substantive.
Responsibilities: list under "Responsibilities/ Duties (may include, but are not limited to):" then bullet-like sentences:
- Perform field investigations and assessments.
- Perform standard computations or analysis.
- Prepare drawings and visual aids.
- Perform occasional drafting and/or figure development using technical software as required.
- Apply prescribed techniques and procedures in accordance with established criteria to perform assigned tasks.
- Perform the design of various civil/ structural engineering projects, and checks design work of staff and design engineers assigned to projects under their control.
- Mentors and trains junior engineering staff.
- Preparation or modification of various types of reports, specifications, plans, forms, policies and procedures.
- Strong analytical and critical thinking skills
- Ability to understand and apply industry codes and standards.
- Experience with Autodesk design platforms, preferably Civil3D.
Note: Some of these are more like skills/experience; but they are under responsibilities. We'll keep as list.
Requirements: Education and Experience Required: Level 2 and Level 3 details.
Also maybe "Must be able to obtain a Security Clearance, and as such, US Citizenship is required." That's a requirement.
Also "Employee Referral Eligibility: This position is eligible for N3B’s employee referral program." minor.
Hard To Fill: Yes.
We could include Requirements section with education/experience, citizenship/security clearance.
Qualifications: maybe license (Professional Engineer) etc. But we already have license mentioned in About the role. Could be separate Qualifications.
Skills: maybe "Excellent communication and organizational skills", "Ability to multi-task", "Strong problem-solving skills", etc. But many are already in About the role. Could create Skills section for technical skills: Experience with Autodesk design platforms, preferably Civil3D; Ability to understand and apply industry codes and standards; Strong analytical and critical thinking skills.
But we must avoid duplication? Not prohibited but we should preserve all substantive info; duplication okay but better to keep each piece once.
Let's structure:
About the role
... (position summary paragraph)
Responsibilities
- Perform field investigations and assessments.
- Perform standard computations or analysis.
- Prepare drawings and visual aids.
- Perform occasional drafting and/or figure development using technical software as required.
- Apply prescribed techniques and procedures in accordance with established criteria to perform assigned tasks.
- Perform the design of various civil/structural engineering projects, and checks design work of staff and design engineers assigned to projects under their control.
- Mentors and trains junior engineering staff.
- Preparation or modification of various types of reports, specifications, plans, forms, policies and procedures.
- Strong analytical and critical thinking skills
- Ability to understand and apply industry codes and standards.
- Experience with Autodesk design platforms, preferably Civil3D.
Requirements
Must be a U.S. citizen and able to obtain a Department of Energy security clearance.
Education and experience:
- Level 2: Bachelor’s of Science degree in Civil and/or Structural Engineering, or related fields from an ABET‑accredited college or university; three (3) years of responsible charge of civil/structure engineering work and relevant experience, preferably in construction plan production, design calculations, and technical writing.
- Level 3: Bachelor’s of Science degree in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, or related fields from an ABET‑accredited college or university; five (5) years of responsible charge of civil and/or structural engineering and relevant experience, preferably in construction plan production, design calculations, and technical writing; minimum 3.0 GPA; demonstrated commitment to academic focus, leadership, and delivering high‑quality solutions.
Optionally include "Licensed Professional Engineer" as qualification.
We could add a Qualifications section for license.
Qualifications
Licensed Professional Engineer (PE).
Skills: maybe combine with responsibilities but we can create Skills section for technical skills.
Skills
- Excellent communication and organizational skills.
- Ability to multi‑task and work independently and in a team.
- Strong problem‑solving skills through application of fundamental engineering principles.
- Ability to foster productive relationships with team members, clients, industry stakeholders, and regulators.
- Great listener with prompt, polished, and specific responses.
- Welcome feedback and continuous improvement mindset.
- Determined, organized, and detail‑oriented.
But many of these are already in About the role. However we need to preserve all substantive info; duplication may be okay but we risk redundancy. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." It doesn't forbid duplication, but better to avoid redundancy. However splitting into sections may cause duplication; but we could keep About the role as summary, Responsibilities as list, Requirements as education/experience + citizenship, Qualifications as license, Skills as remaining soft skills.
But we need to ensure we don't miss any substantive info: The "Essential Job Functions (may include, but are not limited to):" list includes items like "Proven ability to work in and support a team environment. High level of independence, confidence, and strong work ethic. Strong problem-solving skills through the application of fundamental engineering principles. Ability to effectively foster productive relationships with team members, clients, industry stakeholders, and regulators. Excellent written and verbal communication. A great listener with prompt, polished, and specific responses. Welcome feedback and find ways to perform work better, are determined, organized, and detail oriented." That's essentially same as skills list. We could incorporate those into Skills section.
We also have "While working to achieve N3B objectives, the successful candidate will: ensure all activities and operations are performed in a safe and deliberate manner through maintaining required safety, security, and operational training. Making safety, security and quality an integral part of every task including taking the necessary steps to pause or stop work as necessary to ensure the safety and security personnel and the job site." That's safety/security info; could be part of Responsibilities or a separate section but not in allowed headings. Could be included in About the role or Responsibilities.
We have "Business Associations" and "Impact" etc. Might be considered substantive but not in allowed headings; we could omit? The instruction: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It suggests we should use those headings if we have content. It doesn't forbid other headings, but says "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect only those headings. So we should not create other headings like Business Associations, Impact, Working Conditions, etc. We should incorporate that info into existing sections if possible, or drop if not fitting. But we must preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot drop info. So we need to fit that info into allowed sections.
Let's see what info remains:
- Position Location description (Los Alamos details). Could go in About the role.
- Essential Job Functions list (team environment, independence, work ethic, problem-solving, fostering relationships, communication, listening, feedback, determined, organized, detail-oriented). Could go in Skills.
- Responsibilities list we already captured.
- Education and Experience Required captured.
- Must obtain Security Clearance, US Citizenship required -> Requirements.
- Employee Referral Eligibility: This position is eligible for N3B’s employee referral program. Could be a short p under About the role or Requirements as minor metadata.
- Hard To Fill: Yes ☒ No ☐. Could be minor metadata.
- Benefits and Salary: benefits package description; we can create Benefits section.
- Business Associations: Level 2/3 description; maybe could go under About the role or Responsibilities? It's about internal/external contacts. Could be part of About the
- for benefits, and Pay section? The instruction: only create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections if posting actually states them. Benefits are stated. Pay: "Starting salary will be commensurate with experience and education." That's vague but it's still stating something about pay. However instruction says: 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. The phrase "commensurate with experience and education" is similar to placeholder; it's not a specific number. Likely we should not create a Pay section because it's not specific.
