Configuration Control Engineer – Asset & Engineering Systems

We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Content: - Intro paragraph: "The Advanced Photon Source (APS) at Argonne National Laboratory is seeking a Configuration Control Engineer – Asset & Engineering Systems to establish and sustain rigorous configuration control across accelerator systems, beamlines, utilities, and scientific infrastructure. This role applies systems engineering discipline — configuration identification, configuration control, status accounting, and configuration audit — to the full engineering design lifecycle, from requirements and baseline definition through engineering change control and as-built reconciliation. The Configuration Management Engineer will join a multidisciplinary engineering and operations team implementing a digital Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) integrated with Windshield PLM, requirements, and asset lifecycle management tools. This position anchors configuration management in systems engineering practice. Following initial implementation, this position will sustain configuration integrity across the facility by supporting engineering design reviews, change control boards, and interface management, ensuring that every physical asset, control system, and piece of infrastructure remains traceable to an approved, current engineering baseline."

Job Family etc: not needed. Pay: "The expected hiring range for this position is $116,250.00 - $181,350.00. Please note that the pay range information is a general guideline only. The pay offered to a selected candidate will be determined based on factors such as, but not limited to, the scope and responsibilities of the position, the qualifications of the selected candidate, business considerations, internal equity, and external market pay for comparable jobs." Benefits: "Additionally, comprehensive benefits are part of the total rewards package. Click here to view Argonne employee benefits!" Schedule: Not mentioned. So we should not include Schedule section. We need sections: About the role (intro paragraph), Responsibilities (list of duties), Requirements (minimum), Qualifications? The spec says we can use headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which to include based on content. We have About the role (intro). Responsibilities (the key responsibilities). Requirements (minimum education/experience). Qualifications could be the preferred? Or we could combine Requirements and Qualifications? The spec says we can use those headings if there is real specific content. We have both minimum and preferred. Could put Requirements for minimum, Qualifications for preferred. Skills maybe separate? But we could also put Skills under Qualifications. However we need to avoid thin sections. Let's see: we have enough content for Requirements (minimum) and Qualifications (preferred). Skills maybe not separate; we could embed skills within Requirements/Qualifications. But we could also create a Skills section for technical skills like PLM/CMMS, Windchill, etc. However that might be redundant. Better: Use About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (minimum), Qualifications (preferred), Benefits, Pay. That's substantive. We must not include Schedule. Now format: Use

for each section heading. Then content: For prose use

. For lists use

• . We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not omit any details. We need to include the bullet points exactly as given, but we can rephrase slightly? Must preserve all substantive information; we can keep the same meaning but not necessarily exact wording? Safer to keep close. We'll produce HTML fragment. Let's craft:
