Communications Manager

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. We need to parse the job posting. First, remove boilerplate: application window date, Meet the Team, etc. But we need to preserve substantive info. Let's extract sections: - About the role / Team description: "The Silicon One team creates innovative hardware platforms central to the AI era, powering Cisco’s core Switching, Routing, and Wireless products for organizations globally. Our innovations in silicon, optics, and hardware platforms are shaping the technology industry. We're a global team of creative experts, bringing our unique backgrounds and bold ideas to push boundaries and help each other grow. Because full product development—from design to qualification to production—is within our team, we’re able to think differently, experiment more, and work quickly. Join us to power the future of the digital world." That's about the team; could be "About the role" or "About the team". Use heading

About the role

maybe. - Your Impact: description of responsibilities: bullet list? It's paragraphs. We'll convert to

• for list of duties. The text: "As a Communications Manager, you’ll coordinate Silicon One’s internal and external communications cadence, including all-hands meetings, town halls, leadership updates, business updates, customer coordination, organizational announcements, FAQs, and traditional and video blogs. Manage the publishing flow, editorial calendar, stakeholder reviews, and follow-up materials that keep employees informed and leaders prepared. Maintain the deck and messaging repositories, content library, customer archive, version control, tagging, and archival systems so teams can quickly find accurate, approved information. Partner with managers and cross-functional contributors to resolve complex coordination issues, recommend practical solutions, and improve the quality, efficiency, and timeliness of communications. Build repeatable processes and AI-assisted workflows that make Silicon One’s communications and content systems easier to operate and scale." We can break into list items. - You Will: more responsibilities: "Coordinate the execution of Silicon One’s thought leadership content strategy—driving alignment to our business priorities, market moments, and advancements in AI technologies and solutions.Develop and execute cross-functional planning functions throughout the year ranging from strategic business planning, events integration, executive communications, and marketing campaigns.Bring clarity and cohesion of process to our most strategic narratives—from AI to infrastructure to the future of secure computeShape and strengthen our executive voice through consistent application of messaging and positioning across channels and platforms.Manage the content creation lifecycle: from intake and drafting to review coordination, stakeholder feedback, and publishing.Partner with product, marketing and broader communications teams to source inputs, align messaging, maintain editorial quality, and drive planning efficiencies." Again list. - Minimum Qualifications: list. - Preferred Qualifications: list. - Why Cisco?: description about company; could be "About Cisco" but not required heading; maybe we can include as "About the company" but not in list of allowed headings? The allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. "Why Cisco?" could be considered "About the role" or maybe we omit as not needed. But we need to preserve substantive info; we could include as a paragraph under maybe "About the role" or separate section not in allowed headings? The instruction: use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., not exclusive list; we can use other headings? Probably better to stick to those. "Why Cisco?" could be considered "About the role" or maybe we can omit if not needed. But we need to preserve all substantive info; we could incorporate into a paragraph under "About the role" or maybe a separate "About Cisco" heading but that's not in the list; risk of being considered not allowed? The instruction: "use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies those are examples; we can use other headings if appropriate? Safer to stick to those. We could put Cisco description under "About the role" as part of role context. - Message to applicants about salary range: includes Pay details. So we need a Pay section with the salary range. Also includes benefits description. So we need Benefits section. - Also includes schedule info: vacation, holidays, sick time etc. That's Schedule section. Thus we will have sections: About the role (maybe combine team description and Why Cisco?), Responsibilities (Your Impact + You Will), Requirements (maybe Minimum Qualifications?), Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications?), Skills (maybe not explicit; we could omit if no specific skills list), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to avoid empty sections. Let's extract details: About the role: combine team description and Why Cisco? The Why Cisco paragraph: "At Cisco, we’re revolutionizing how data and infrastructure connect and protect organizations in the AI era – and beyond. We’ve been innovating fearlessly for 40 years to create solutions that power how humans and technology work together across the physical and digital worlds. These solutions provide customers with unparalleled security, visibility, and insights across the entire digital footprint. Fueled by the depth and breadth of our technology, we experiment and create meaningful solutions. Add to that our worldwide network of doers and experts, and you’ll see that the opportunities to grow and build are limitless. We work as a team, collaborating with empathy to make really big things happen on a global scale. Because our solutions are everywhere, our impact is everywhere. We are Cisco, and our power starts with you." We'll include that as part of About the role. Responsibilities: combine Your Impact and You Will paragraphs into list items. Let's break into sensible list items: - Coordinate Silicon One’s internal and external communications cadence, including all-hands meetings, town halls, leadership updates, business updates, customer coordination, organizational announcements, FAQs, and traditional and video blogs. - Manage the publishing flow, editorial calendar, stakeholder reviews, and follow-up materials that keep employees informed and leaders prepared. - Maintain the deck and messaging repositories, content library, customer archive, version control, tagging, and archival systems so teams can quickly find accurate, approved information. - Partner with managers and cross-functional contributors to resolve complex coordination issues, recommend practical solutions, and improve the quality, efficiency, and timeliness of communications. - Build repeatable processes and AI-assisted workflows that make Silicon One’s communications and content systems easier to operate and scale. - Coordinate the execution of Silicon One’s thought leadership content strategy—driving alignment to business priorities, market moments, and advancements in AI technologies and solutions. - Develop and execute cross‑functional planning functions throughout the year ranging from strategic business planning, events integration, executive communications, and marketing campaigns. - Bring clarity and cohesion of process to strategic narratives—from AI to infrastructure to the future of secure compute. - Shape and strengthen the executive voice through consistent application of messaging and positioning across channels and platforms. - Manage the content creation lifecycle: from intake and drafting to review coordination, stakeholder feedback, and publishing. - Partner with product, marketing, and broader communications teams to source inputs, align messaging, maintain editorial quality, and drive planning efficiencies. That's good. Requirements: Minimum Qualifications bullet list. Minimum Qualifications text: "Bachelors + 8 years of related experience, or Masters + 6 years of related experience in communications, marketing operations, content operations, business operations, or a related disciplineBachelor’s degree or master’s degree in communications, Public Relations, Journalism, Marketing, or a related field.Experience managing communications calendars, publishing workflows, stakeholder reviews, or recurring executive and employee communications. Experience administering content repositories or knowledge-management systems, including versioning, tagging, archiving, and search or discoverability. Previous experience leading a workstream, coordinating professional contributors, or serving as a team lead or supervisor." We need to split into list items: - Bachelor’s degree + 8 years of related experience, or Master’s degree + 6 years of related experience in communications, marketing operations, content operations, business operations, or a related discipline. - Bachelor’s degree or master’s degree in communications, Public Relations, Journalism, Marketing, or a related field. - Experience managing communications calendars, publishing workflows, stakeholder reviews, or recurring executive and employee communications. - Experience administering content repositories or knowledge‑management systems, including versioning, tagging, archiving, and search or discoverability. - Previous experience leading a workstream, coordinating professional contributors, or serving as a team lead or supervisor. Note there is some duplication; first two items somewhat overlapping but we keep both as they appear. Preferred Qualifications: list. Preferred Qualifications text: "Experience in global marketing planning, operations, integration, or communications within a complex technology company. Experience supporting executive communications, town halls, newsletters, intranet updates, or leadership content. Experience with SharePoint, digital content libraries, workflow tools, or AI-assisted content creation.Ability to explain complex or sensitive information clearly and guide stakeholders toward alignment. Strong judgment, organization, prioritization, follow-through, and comfort working across a matrixed organization." List items: - Experience in global marketing planning, operations, integration, or communications within a complex technology company. - Experience supporting executive communications, town halls, newsletters, intranet updates, or leadership content. - Experience with SharePoint, digital content libraries, workflow tools, or AI-assisted content creation. - Ability to explain complex or sensitive information clearly and guide stakeholders toward alignment. - Strong judgment, organization, prioritization, follow-through, and comfort working across a matrixed organization. Skills: Not explicitly listed; we could omit Skills section. Benefits: from Message to applicants: "U.S. employees are offered benefits, subject to Cisco’s plan eligibility rules, which include medical, dental and vision insurance, a 401(k) plan with a Cisco matching contribution, paid parental leave, short and long-term disability coverage, and basic life insurance. Please see the Cisco careers site to discover more benefits and perks. Employees may be eligible to receive grants of Cisco restricted stock units, which vest following continued employment with Cisco for defined periods of time." Also includes paid time away details (but that's schedule). So Benefits list: - Medical, dental, and vision insurance - 401(k) plan with Cisco matching contribution - Paid parental leave - Short- and long-term disability coverage - Basic life insurance - Grants of Cisco restricted stock units (vesting after continued employment) We could also mention "more benefits and perks" but that's vague; we keep concrete.
