We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions). Also must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. Let's examine posting. Job Title: Continuous Improvement Engineer Co-Op Job Description: Here at Entegris... The Role: Our site in San Luis Obispo, CA is seeking a Continuous Improvement Engineer Co-Op to join our team for the Spring 2027 season. This assignment is intended to be 6 months in duration. The Continuous Improvement Engineer Co-op supports operational excellence by assisting in data collection, conducting time and motion studies, and applying foundational Lean manufacturing and Six Sigma principles to identify and eliminate waste, reduce bottlenecks, and optimize workflow layouts. Working hands-on with cross-functional production teams, this dynamic student role actively participates in root-cause problem-solving and helps document standard operating procedures to drive sustainable, efficiency-focused enhancements across our manufacturing operations. What You’ll Do: This role is interested in Industrial Engineers or Manufacturing Engineers or Mechanical Engineers. We desire to tailor your tasks in the list below to your interests: [list of duties] What We Seek: Completion of 2 or more years with selected major in Industrial or Manufacturing or Mechanical Engineering Desired Major(s) & Graduation Year: Industrial or Manufacturing or Mechanical Engineering Desired Graduation year 2028 or sooner Eligibility Must be a currently enrolled student Available to work 40 hours a week, M-F (8a-5p) beginning in January through June. Must be familiar with the universities requirements to participate in a co-op program PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS: Ability to manipulate mechanical assemblies and objects of 25 lb. Mobility to be able to investigate and observe shop floor activities. Why Work at Entegris Lead. Inspire. Innovate. Define Your Future. Not everyone who works for a global company shares the same background, experiences and perspectives. We leverage the differences of our employees to bring new ideas to the table. Every employee throughout the company is encouraged to share input on projects and initiatives. Our decision-making process is truly a collaborative effort as we realize there are leaders at every level of the organization. We put our values at the core of how we operate as an organization — not just when it’s convenient, but in a lasting and meaningful way. We want the time and energy you spend here to have a positive impact on your life inside and outside of the office. What We Offer Our total rewards package goes above and beyond just a paycheck. Whether you’re looking to build your career, improve your health, or protect your wealth, we offer generous benefits to help you achieve your goals. Generous 401(K) plan with an impressive employer match Excellent health packages to fit your needs Flexible work schedule with paid holidays and sick time Values-driven culture with colleagues that rally around People, Accountability, Creativity and Excellence Entegris does not provide immigration-related sponsorship for this role. Do not apply for this role if you will need Entegris immigration sponsorship (e.g., H1B, TN, STEM OPT, etc.) now or in the future. We need to remove boilerplate: immigration note maybe considered legal? It's about sponsorship; maybe considered legal/EEO? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The immigration note is legal? Might be considered legal. Safer to remove it. Also "Why Work at Entegris" section is values/culture; could be considered part of Benefits? Not exactly. It's more about culture; we could treat as "About the role" or maybe separate "Culture". But we only allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can map content accordingly. We need to decide sections: - About the role: could include description of role, location, duration, purpose. That's from The Role paragraph. - Responsibilities: the list under "What You’ll Do". That's duties. - Requirements: eligibility, enrollment, availability, physical requirements, maybe also "Must be familiar with the universities requirements to participate in a co-op program". Also "Completion of 2 or more years with selected major in Industrial or Manufacturing or Mechanical Engineering". Also "Desired Major(s) & Graduation Year: Industrial or Manufacturing or Mechanical Engineering Desired Graduation year 2028 or sooner". That's qualifications. - Qualifications: maybe overlapping with Requirements. But we need to avoid duplication. Could combine: Requirements for eligibility, Qualifications for education/major/grad year. But we can decide to have Requirements include eligibility and physical; Qualifications include education/major/grad year. - Skills: maybe not explicitly listed; but we could infer from duties: Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, data analysis, time studies, root cause, SOPs, etc. However we should not invent. The posting does not have a separate "Skills" section. So we should not create Skills heading unless there is real specific content. There's no explicit skills list. So omit Skills. - Benefits: The "What We Offer" section includes benefits: Generous 401(K) plan with impressive employer match, Excellent health packages, Flexible work schedule with paid holidays and sick time, Values-driven culture. That's benefits. So we can include Benefits. - Pay: Not mentioned. No pay/salary info. So omit Pay. - Schedule: The posting mentions "Available to work 40 hours a week, M-F (8a-5p) beginning in January through June." That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Schedule. Check if any content duplicated: We'll ensure not to repeat. Now craft HTML. We need

for each section heading. Then content: use

for prose,

  • for lists. We must preserve all substantive information. Let's extract. About the role: from The Role paragraph: "Our site in San Luis Obispo, CA is seeking a Continuous Improvement Engineer Co-Op to join our team for the Spring 2027 season. This assignment is intended to be 6 months in duration. The Continuous Improvement Engineer Co-op supports operational excellence by assisting in data collection, conducting time and motion studies, and applying foundational Lean manufacturing and Six Sigma principles to identify and eliminate waste, reduce bottlenecks, and optimize workflow layouts. Working hands-on with cross-functional production teams, this dynamic student role actively participates in root-cause problem-solving and helps document standard operating procedures to drive sustainable, efficiency-focused enhancements across our manufacturing operations." We could also include the introductory sentence "Here at Entegris, we use advanced science to enable technologies that transform the world, and we are seeking employees who have the drive to continue the mission." That's generic but maybe part of About the role? It's not specific to role but could be considered about company. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not navigation/legal; it's a mission statement. Could keep as part of About the role. But we need to preserve all substantive information; it's not boilerplate. So include. Thus About the role paragraph: combine first sentence plus The Role paragraph. Responsibilities: list from "What You’ll Do:" after the intro sentence "This role is interested in Industrial Engineers or Manufacturing Engineers or Mechanical Engineers. We desire to tailor your tasks in the list below to your interests:" Then list items. We'll keep the list items as
  • . Should we include the introductory sentence? It's prose; we can put in a

    before the list. Thus Responsibilities section:

    This role is interested in Industrial Engineers or Manufacturing Engineers or Mechanical Engineers. We desire to tailor your tasks in the list below to your interests:

    then
      with items. List items: - Support continuous improvement initiatives across manufacturing operations by collecting, analyzing, and interpreting operational data to identify improvement opportunities. - Apply foundational Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma methodologies to help optimize processes, reduce bottlenecks, and improve productivity. - Conduct time studies, motion studies, and workflow assessments to evaluate process performance and uncover sources of waste, variation, and inefficiency. - Collaborate with cross-functional teams including Production, Quality, Engineering, Supply Chain, and Operations to support process improvement projects. - Assist in root-cause investigations using structured problem-solving tools to identify corrective and preventive actions. - Help develop, document, and maintain standard operating procedures (SOPs), work instructions, process maps, and standardized work practices. - Participate in manufacturing floor observations, kaizen events, and improvement workshops, providing hands-on support for implementing process enhancements. - Support facility, production line, and workstation layout evaluations to improve material flow, ergonomics, safety, and operational efficiency. - Design, develop, or improve assembly aids, fixtures, tooling, material handling solutions, and ergonomic workstations that enhance safety, quality, and productivity. - Assist with evaluating manufacturing equipment, production processes, and automation opportunities to improve throughput and reduce operational waste. - Create reports, presentations, visual management systems, and dashboards to communicate project progress, findings, and recommendations. - Monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) and assist in measuring the effectiveness and sustainability of implemented improvements. Now Requirements: eligibility, availability, physical requirements, plus maybe "Must be familiar with the universities requirements to participate in a co-op program". Also "Must be a currently enrolled student". Also "Available to work 40 hours a week, M-F (8a-5p) beginning in January through June." Actually schedule is separate; but we could still include availability in Requirements? But we have Schedule section for schedule details. Might be better to put schedule in Schedule section. So Requirements: eligibility (currently enrolled student), familiarity with university co-op requirements, physical requirements (ability to manipulate mechanical assemblies and objects of 25 lb., mobility to investigate and observe shop floor activities). Also maybe "Must be familiar with the universities requirements to participate in a co-op program". We'll include that. Thus Requirements section:

      Must be a currently enrolled student.

      Must be familiar with the university’s requirements to participate in a co‑op program.

      Physical requirements: ability to manipulate mechanical assemblies and objects of 25 lb.; mobility to investigate and observe shop‑floor activities.

      We could combine into a
        but it's okay to use

        . The instruction: Use

        • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

          for prose. So for requirements we could use a list. Let's make a

            with items. Now Qualifications: education/major/grad year: "Completion of 2 or more years with selected major in Industrial or Manufacturing or Mechanical Engineering", "Desired Major(s) & Graduation Year: Industrial or Manufacturing or Mechanical Engineering", "Desired Graduation year 2028 or sooner". Also maybe "Completion of 2 or more years with selected major in Industrial or Manufacturing or Mechanical Engineering" is same as Desired Major(s). We'll combine. Thus Qualifications:
            • Completion of 2 or more years in Industrial, Manufacturing, or Mechanical Engineering.
            • Desired graduation year 2028 or sooner.
            We could also include "Desired Major(s): Industrial or Manufacturing or Mechanical Engineering". But that's redundant. We'll keep as above. Now Benefits: from "What We Offer": "Generous 401(K) plan with an impressive employer match", "Excellent health packages to fit your needs", "Flexible work schedule with paid holidays and sick time", "Values-driven culture with colleagues that rally around People, Accountability, Creativity and Excellence". Also maybe "Our total rewards package goes above and beyond just a paycheck." That's prose. We'll include a

            then list. Thus Benefits:

            Our total rewards package goes above and beyond just a paycheck.
