Commercial Title Underwriter – Renewables Team (remote)

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only sections that have real specific content. We have content: "Who We Are" (company description) maybe not needed as a heading? Could be "About the role"? Actually "Who We Are" is about company, not role. The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to those headings where appropriate. We have "What We Do" describing role responsibilities. That could be under Responsibilities. We have "What You’ll Do" list of duties - also responsibilities. We have "What You’ll Bring" list of qualifications/requirements/skills. We have Pay Range. We have Benefits: "What We Offer" describing benefits. We have no explicit Schedule. We have no explicit Qualifications separate from Requirements? Could combine. We should not repeat job title as heading. We need to preserve all substantive information, remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Also remove navigation, cookie, etc. The posting includes some legal statements about Fair Chance etc. Those are boilerplate; we should remove them. Also remove "Based on eligibility, First American offers a comprehensive benefits package..." we can keep benefits description. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll structure:

About the role

maybe include brief description: "First American's Direct division provides comprehensive title insurance protection and professional settlement services...". That's from Who We Are and What We Do? Actually "Who We Are" is company overview; could be placed under About the role? Might be okay. Better:

About the role

First American's Direct division provides comprehensive title insurance protection and professional settlement services for real estate purchases, refinances and equity loans. ...

Then maybe include description of role: supporting energy and renewable energy transactions. But we must not invent content; we can use the text from posting. We need to avoid duplication. Let's extract substantive paragraphs: From "Who We Are": "Join a team that puts its People First! First American's Direct division provides comprehensive title insurance protection and professional settlement services for real estate purchases, refinances and equity loans. Since 1889, First American (NYSE: FAF) has held an unwavering belief in its people. They are passionate about what they do, and we are equally passionate about fostering an environment where all feel welcome, supported, and empowered to be innovative and reach their full potential. Our inclusive, people-first culture has earned our company numerous accolades, including being named to the Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For® list for eleven consecutive years. We have also earned awards as a best place to work for women, diversity and LGBTQ+ employees, and have been included on more than 50 regional best places to work lists. First American will always strive to be a great place to work, for all. For more information, please visit www.careers.firstam.com." That's company overview; could be placed under About the role or maybe a separate section like "About the company". But only allowed headings list; we could put under About the role. From "What We Do": "First American is seeking a Commercial Title Underwriter to support energy and renewable energy transactions. In this role, you will apply your underwriting and title insurance expertise, research skills, and attention to detail to help support the development, financing, acquisition, and closing of energy projects. You will work on transactions involving solar, wind, battery storage, transmission, utility-scale development, distributed generation, and other energy-related assets where land rights and real property interests are critical to project success. These matters may include fee ownership, leasehold interests, easements, access rights, mineral rights, encumbrances, survey matters, and multi-site project portfolios. In this role, you will help identify, analyze, and resolve title issues that may impact site control, project financing, construction, operation, or transfer of energy and renewable energy assets. You will work closely with internal teams, title partners, escrow professionals, customers, and outside counsel to support the title process from search and review through commitment, endorsement, policy, and closing. This is an opportunity to bring your title and underwriting experience into a growing and highly specialized area of the energy market. You will play a key role in supporting renewable energy transactions that require accuracy, collaboration, and a strong understanding of complex property records, land rights, and project-related title matters. Come be part of a leading company in the title insurance industry as we help support the real estate foundation behind renewable energy development, energy infrastructure, and a more sustainable future." That's responsibilities. From "What You’ll Do": list of duties (many bullet-like sentences). We'll put under Responsibilities as

• items. From "What You’ll Bring": list of qualifications/skills. We'll put under Requirements or Qualifications and Skills. We have Pay Range: "$97,700.00 - $130,300.00 Annually". We'll put under Pay. We have Benefits: "What We Offer By choice, we don’t simply accept individuality – we embrace it, we support it, and we thrive on it! Our People First culture is inclusive for all employees - not just because it's the right thing to do, but because it's the key to our success. We are proud to foster an authentic and inclusive workplace For All. You are free and encouraged to bring your entire, unique self to work. First American is an equal opportunity employer in every sense of the term. Based on eligibility, First American offers a comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, vision, 401k, PTO/paid sick leave and other great benefits like an employee stock purchase plan." We need to remove EEO boilerplate? The line "First American is an equal opportunity employer in every sense of the term." is EEO boilerplate; we should remove it. Also the earlier Fair Chance statements we should remove. Also the note about Los Angeles County etc. Remove. Thus benefits paragraph: keep the culture description and benefits list. We'll put under Benefits. We have no Schedule. We'll not create empty sections. Now produce HTML:
