EngineeringFull-time
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. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. We need to parse the posting. First part: Summary/Objective: description of role. That could be "About the role". Then "Essential Functions" list of duties. That's responsibilities. Then "Education/Experience": qualifications. Then "Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities": skills. Then "Physical Requirements": maybe part of requirements? Could be separate but not required sections; we can include under Requirements or maybe a separate section? The allowed headings are limited to those list. Physical Requirements could be part of Requirements or maybe we can include under Requirements as a list. Then there is a note: "This job description is not designed to cover..." that's boilerplate; remove. Then "Please note that sponsorship is not available now or in the future for this position." That's maybe a note; could be included under Requirements? It's a condition; but it's not a standard heading. Might be considered boilerplate? It's specific info about sponsorship not available. Should we keep? It's substantive. Could be placed under Requirements as a note. Then "About TERRA Engineering": company description. Could be part of About the role? Or maybe separate section? Not in allowed headings. Could be omitted? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include company description somewhere. Could be under About the role as a paragraph. Then "TERRA Provides Competitive compensation packages including bonus program, paid holidays and paid time offComprehensive healthcare benefitsRetirement plan options with safe harbor match and profit sharingHybrid/Flexible work arrangements for most positionsPublic transportation reimbursement (Chicago-area employees)A warm culture that is conducive to growth and professional developmentAnd more!" That's benefits. So we need Benefits section. Then "In accordance with local law, the estimated salary range is applicable to the position and location associated with this posting. Compensation will vary based upon experience, education, skill level, geographical location, and other compensable factors." That's Pay info but no specific range given. It says estimated salary range applicable but not provided. Since we should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It mentions estimated salary range but does not give numbers. It's vague. The instruction: 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. Here they say "estimated salary range is applicable" but not giving numbers; that's placeholder. So we should NOT create a Pay section. Schedule: Not mentioned. So no Schedule section. Now we need to output HTML with headings

for each section we include. Sections we have: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits. But note: Qualifications and Skills are separate headings allowed. However Education/Experience is qualifications. Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities is skills. Could combine? But we have both. We need to decide if we need both Qualifications and Skills sections. Yes. Now we need to format content. About the role: combine Summary/Objective and About TERRA Engineering description. Summary/Objective paragraph: "Serves as technical advisor to the department and multi-disciplinary project teams. Directs and supports the department’s technical operations using advanced and diversified knowledge of engineering principles and practices. Exercises independent initiative and judgement in setting and implementing engineering standards and supports all aspects of a range of projects varying in size and complexity. Leads and supervises design coordination for the team, department, disciplines, and agencies to meet requirements. Oversees Quality Control/Quality Assurance practices and actively contributes to developing and executing business and operational strategies for the department." Then About TERRA Engineering paragraph: "TERRA Engineering, Ltd. was founded by Karen Steingraber and Jamil Bou-Saab in 1992, beginning their journey building strong relationships with clients. In 2000, Senior Vice President George Ghareeb joined the team and began overseeing operations in a then-newly opened office in Peoria, Illinois. Since then, TERRA has continued expanding our reach to broaden our markets and serve additional communities, adding offices in St. Louis (2011), Milwaukee (2013), and Bolingbrook, Illinois (2025). We are proud of our 115+ employees who contribute their talent and skills to TERRA’s success. As we continue to grow, we maintain a strong focus on the development of our team members through mentorship, collaboration, and the continual refining of our collective body of knowledge. At TERRA Engineering, our mission of enhancing communities starts from within." We could combine into one

or two

. Use

for prose. Responsibilities: list of Essential Functions. Each bullet as

  • . Need to preserve all details. Let's extract each bullet: - Contribute to project proposals, client interview preparation, and stakeholder presentations for large, multi-disciplinary and complex projects; lead presentation of TERRA work at conferences and industry events - Assist the department director in leading business development and other strategic growth efforts; actively participate in industry, networking, and professional organizations events and activities - Provide input to establish project team and staffing requirements consistent with contractual obligations - Provide guidance to staff on unusual or complex technical solutions to deliver the design through documentation and detailing - Develop design concepts, studies, design options, and establish design criteria - Perform complex analysis and design calculations, document design procedures, and assure design complies with applicable codes and standards - Conduct Quality Control/Quality Assurance reviews and enforce guidelines - Approve and certify deliverables as the Engineer of Record - Provide engineering leadership on large, multi-disciplinary projects, while also overseeing and providing guidance on multiple medium-scale projects as needed - Assist in resolving project budget or cost constraints with technical objectives - Work with project managers to resolve project performance issues - Provide support in resolving technical construction administration issues - Author project descriptions and resumes to be incorporated into marketing materials - Develop and maintain trusted relationships with team members, multidisciplinary team members, vendors, and authorities having jurisdiction - Actively share knowledge, displaying open and timely exchange of significant ideas and information - Create and enforce the application of TERRA standards and guidelines - Mentor staff in technical matters and participate in performance reviews as requested - Participate in the recruitment, interviewing, and candidate selection process - Provide input on the technical growth strategy of the department - Perform other duties as required We need to keep all. Now Requirements: includes Education/Experience and Physical Requirements and sponsorship note? Also maybe "Please note that sponsorship is not available now or in the future for this position." That is a requirement/condition. Also maybe "Physical Requirements" details. Education/Experience: "B.S. engineering or related field (ABET/EAC-accredited program) 15+ years of applicable engineering experience PE required (SE required for Structural) Additional credentials preferred (e.g., CFM, CPESC, ENV SP, LEED AP, etc.)" Physical Requirements: list of bullet points. Physical Requirements text: - Involves sitting a considerable amount of the time, but requires the ability to conduct field/site visits to inspect work - May exert up to 20 pounds of force occasionally and/or a negligible amount of force to move objects - Occasionally lifts and carries up to 25 pounds - Considerable time is spent at a work station using a computer and using various forms of communication (telephone, email, messaging, etc.) - Field work includes exposure to outside weather conditions and various environmental conditions depending on the site - Physical activities include walking and occasional stooping and crouching Also note: "This job description is not designed to cover or contain a comprehensive list of activities, duties and/or responsibilities required of the employee for this position. Duties, responsibilities, and activities may change at any time." That's boilerplate; remove. "Please note that sponsorship is not available now or in the future for this position." Keep as a note. Thus Requirements section could contain both Education/Experience and Physical Requirements and sponsorship note. Could be multiple paragraphs or lists. We need to use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For Education/Experience it's not a list but could be a

      . Physical Requirements is a list. We'll structure:

      Requirements

      Education/Experience: B.S. engineering or related field (ABET/EAC-accredited program); 15+ years of applicable engineering experience; PE required (SE required for Structural); Additional credentials preferred (e.g., CFM, CPESC, ENV SP, LEED AP, etc.)

      Sponsorship: Sponsorship is not available now or in the future for this position.

      Physical Requirements

      ? But we cannot use h4 because only allowed headings are h3 for section headings. However we could embed physical requirements as a
        directly under Requirements without extra heading. The instruction: use

        for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should not add other headings like Physical Requirements. So we can just include a
          for physical requirements under Requirements. Thus Requirements section will have:

          Education/Experience: B.S. engineering or related field (ABET/EAC-accredited program); 15+ years of applicable engineering experience; PE required (SE required for Structural); Additional credentials preferred (e.g., CFM, CPESC, ENV SP, LEED AP, etc.)

          Sponsorship is not available now or in the future for this position.

          • Involves sitting a considerable amount of the time, but requires the ability to conduct field/site visits to inspect work
          • May exert up to 20 pounds of force occasionally and/or a negligible amount of force to move objects
          • Occasionally lifts and carries up to 25 pounds
          • Considerable time is spent at a work station using a computer and using various forms of communication (telephone, email, messaging, etc.)
          • Field work includes exposure to outside weather conditions and various environmental conditions depending on the site
          • Physical activities include walking and occasional stooping and crouching
          Now Qualifications: Actually Education/Experience is qualifications. But we already used that under Requirements. However the instruction: Use sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need a Qualifications section separate from Requirements? Usually Requirements includes qualifications, but we have both headings allowed. We need to decide what goes where. We could treat Requirements as the mandatory requirements (education, experience, licensure, sponsorship, physical). Qualifications could be preferred qualifications? But we don't have separate preferred qualifications besides "Additional credentials preferred". That could go under Qualifications. Better: Requirements: mandatory (education, experience, PE, sponsorship, physical). Qualifications: preferred credentials (CFM, CPESC, ENV SP, LEED AP, etc.) plus maybe other preferred? Also maybe "Additional credentials preferred" is qualifications. Thus we split. Let's define: Requirements: - Education: B.S. engineering or related field (ABET/EAC-accredited program) - Experience: 15+ years of applicable engineering experience - Licensure: PE required (SE required for Structural) - Sponsorship: Not available now or in the future - Physical Requirements: list as above Qualifications: - Additional credentials preferred (e.g., CFM, CPESC, ENV SP, LEED AP, etc.) Skills: Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities list
