That seems to combine company overview and role summary. Might be okay. Now Responsibilities: we have bullet points under Sales & Customer Engagement, Account Management, Technical & Clinical Support, Compliance & Collaboration. We'll combine into a single- with all items? Could separate subheadings but not required. We'll just list all responsibilities as
- .

Now Requirements: Required EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE YOU’LL BRING list:
- Bachelor’s degree (Business, Life Sciences, Engineering, or related).
- Experience: 2-4 years in medical device or healthcare (inside or field).
- Demonstrates consultative selling skills, including uncovering needs, asking strategic questions, and positioning solutions that drive utilization growth.
- Track record of ≥100% to goal in the most recent performance year.
- Account-facing experience with clinicians and administrators (e.g., HF clinics, service line leaders).
- Proficiency with CRM (Salesforce preferred), Excel/analytics, and PowerPoint.
- Comfortable delivering clinical/technical presentations to audiences of 10–50 stakeholders.
Preferred Knowledge (maybe Qualifications/Skills):
- Knowledge of reimbursement landscape and payment pathways (highly preferred).
- Experience at top MedTech organizations (highly preferred).
- 1-2 years of commercial experience.
- Experience in Cardiology/HF/EP/Structural Heart or remote monitoring.
- Prior involvement in value analysis or committee‑based selling.
- Familiarity with Cath lab/OR workflows; basic procedural support experience.
We could put these under Qualifications (preferred) and Skills (maybe combine). But we have both Required and Preferred. We'll make Requirements for required, Qualifications for preferred, Skills maybe extracted from required (consultative selling, CRM proficiency, delivering presentations). However we already have those in Required. To avoid duplication, we could put Skills under Required? But instruction: use headings for those categories if content exists. We have content for Requirements (required), Qualifications (preferred), Skills (maybe we can list specific skills like consultative selling, CRM proficiency, presentation skills). However those are already in Required. Could still list them under Skills as well but that would duplicate. Better to treat Required as Requirements, Preferred as Qualifications, and maybe Skills not needed separately. But we need to decide.
We have content for Skills: consultative selling skills, CRM proficiency, delivering presentations. Those are in Required. Could move them to Skills and keep Requirements focused on education/experience. But then we would lose some details if we remove from Requirements. We need to preserve all substantive info; we can duplicate? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is not prohibited but might be redundant. Safer to keep them where they appear; we can have Requirements include education/experience and also those skill statements. Then we can have Qualifications for preferred. Skills section maybe not needed; we can omit if no distinct content beyond what's already covered. But we need to include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it. If we don't have distinct skills beyond those already captured, we could omit Skills heading. However we have explicit skill statements; they are part of Required. Could still create Skills heading and list them, but then we would be duplicating content from Requirements. That might be okay but could be considered redundant. The instruction didn't forbid duplication, but said preserve ALL substantive information; duplication preserves but may be considered extra. I'd rather not duplicate; we can put skill statements under Requirements and not have separate Skills.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay.
Check Benefits: we have the paragraph about career development, free medical coverage, retirement savings, tuition reimbursement, Freedom 2 Save, FreeU education benefit, recognition as great place to work, admired by Fortune, best big companies to work for, best place for diversity, working mothers, female executives, scientists.
