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 must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Must preserve all substantive info.
We need to parse the posting: It includes Overview, Who We Are, Our Art Team, Your Role, What You’ll Do, What You’ll Need, Nice to Have..., This position pays a range..., This role is contracted through a third-party that provides health benefits..., We are an equal opportunity employer..., You must be legally authorized..., etc.
We need to produce sections: maybe "About the role" (overview), "Responsibilities" (What You’ll Do), "Requirements" (What You’ll Need), "Qualifications" maybe same as requirements? Could combine. "Skills" maybe list of skills. "Benefits" (health benefits via third-party). "Pay" (range). "Schedule" maybe not present (no schedule info). So we should not include Schedule.
We must not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience". The pay range is given, so include Pay section.
Benefits: mention health benefits via third-party. That's specific enough.
We need to avoid duplication: The posting repeats sections (What You’ll Do and What You’ll Need appear twice). We need to preserve all substantive info but not duplicate? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." If we remove duplicate sentences, we might lose some info? But duplicates are same content repeated; we can keep one copy. It's still preserving info. Likely acceptable.

But Nice to Have are not required skills; still could be under Skills or Qualifications. The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Requirements and Nice to Have into a single "Requirements" with sub-lists? But better to have separate sections: Requirements and Nice to Have (maybe as "Preferred Qualifications").
But we have headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can use Requirements for mandatory, Qualifications for nice-to-have, Skills maybe not needed. But we could put Nice to Have under Qualifications.
