Cloud Software Engineer (FORECASTED)
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real content. The posting includes description, responsibilities (Level 1 and Level 2), qualifications, required cloud experience, preferred qualifications, requirements (citizenship, security clearance, etc.), about us, salary range transparency, benefits. We need to map to headings.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove EEO statements? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. So we should remove EEO statements. Also remove "This Position is Contingent on Contract Award**" maybe keep? It's a note but not a heading; could be part of description paragraph. Probably keep as part of description.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include description paragraph(s), responsibilities (list), qualifications (list), required cloud experience (list), preferred qualifications (list), requirements (citizenship, security clearance, etc.), about us (paragraph), salary range transparency (maybe as a section? Could be part of Benefits? But we have a Pay section only if posting states pay. It does not give specific salary numbers, but it discusses salary range transparency and how they determine ranges. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does not state actual pay numbers or schedule. It does discuss benefits in detail. So we can include Benefits section because they list benefits. Pay section: they discuss salary range transparency but not actual numbers; is that considered stating pay? It says "Salary Range Transparency" and explains how they determine salary ranges. That is still about pay but not giving specific numbers. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state they have salary ranges and explain how determined. I'd argue that is stating something about pay, so we could include a Pay section with that content. However they also say "Really Good Benefits, For Really GREAT People" then list benefits. So Benefits section definitely.
Schedule: not mentioned, so omit.
We need to use for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not invent or summarize away detail. Keep all details.
We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe description), Responsibilities, Qualifications (maybe combine qualifications and required experience?), Skills (maybe preferred qualifications?), Benefits, Pay (salary range transparency). Could also have "About Us" as separate section? Not in list of allowed headings but we could treat as "About the role" or maybe "About Us" not allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should fit content into those headings. "About Us" could go under About the role? Or maybe we can create a section not in list? The instruction: use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., implying those are examples but we should use those headings when appropriate. Probably we should stick to those headings. So we need to map content:
- About the role: could include the introductory description and maybe "About Us"? But About Us is about company, not role. Could still be under About the role? Might be okay. Or we could omit About Us if not fitting. But we need to preserve all substantive information; we could include About Us as a paragraph under About the role heading.
- Responsibilities: include Level 1 and Level 2 responsibilities as list items.
- Requirements: include citizenship, security clearance, polygraph, drug testing, etc. Also maybe "U.S. Citizenship is required" etc.
- Qualifications: include education, experience substitutions, certifications, level-specific experience.
- Skills: include preferred qualifications (containerization, orchestration, AWS/Azure, CI/CD, Big Data, RESTful APIs, microservices, monitoring, etc.)
- Benefits: include medical, vision+dental, retirement, PTO, career growth, life insurance, profit sharing, referral bonus.
- Pay: include salary range transparency explanation.
We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't repeat same content.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
Let's craft.
First, maybe a
