We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Need to extract content.
Given posting: It includes a description summary, job description, responsibilities, knowledge, skills, abilities, safety, physical demands, minimum skills/experience, preferred qualifications, benefits, compensation range, pay rate type.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. No Job ID etc.
We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, etc. Also remove application instructions (like "Applicants must be legally authorized to work in the U.S."? That's a requirement, maybe keep as part of Requirements? It's a requirement but not boilerplate? It's a legal requirement; but it's not EEO statement. It's a requirement about work authorization. Might keep under Requirements.
We need to preserve all substantive info.
We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe from Job Description Summary). Responsibilities (list of duties). Requirements (minimum skills/experience). Qualifications (maybe preferred qualifications). Skills (knowledge, skills, abilities). Benefits (explicit). Pay (compensation range). Schedule (maybe hybrid/onsite presence). There's also Physical Demands and Environmental Conditions; could be part of Requirements or separate? Not a standard heading; but we could include under Requirements or maybe a separate section like Working Conditions. But only allowed headings are those listed; we cannot create new headings. So we need to fit content into allowed headings. If content doesn't fit, we could omit? But we must preserve all substantive info. We could embed physical demands under Requirements or maybe under Responsibilities? Probably under Requirements as "Physical Demands". Or we could put under Requirements as a bullet.
Similarly, Safety section could be part of Responsibilities or maybe under Knowledge, Skills, Abilities? But we have a Safety heading not in allowed list. So we need to incorporate safety content into allowed sections: maybe under Responsibilities (since safety responsibilities) or under Knowledge, Skills, Abilities (since safety leadership). We'll decide.
We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
Let's extract content.
About the role: from Job Description Summary: "The Commissioning Project Manager - HV/BESS is accountable for planning, managing, and delivering the complete commissioning scope for assigned high-voltage substation or battery energy storage projects, typically across two to three concurrent projects. The role functions as the project manager for the assigned technical scope from early planning and readiness through energization, testing, acceptance, substantial completion, and turnover. This position owns scope, schedule, resource planning, cost awareness, risk, technical coordination, stakeholder alignment, documentation, and issue resolution. The Commissioning Project Manager exercises independent judgment within the assigned scope and serves as the primary commissioning point of contact for project teams, customers, utilities, OEMs, and commissioning partners. This role is hybrid, with onsite presence required at job sites and partial remote work. Specific location details and expectations will be discussed during the interview process."
We'll put that under
