We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role (position summary), Responsibilities (essential duties), Requirements (qualifications). Possibly also Benefits, Pay, Schedule if present. The posting does not have explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should not include those sections. Also we need to remove boilerplate like EEO, compliance, etc. Also remove Job ID etc. There's no job ID. Also remove application instructions (none). Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include position summary, essential duties and responsibilities (maybe split into sub-sections? but we just need a list). Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose. We need headings:
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose which sections have content. We have position summary -> About the role. Essential duties -> Responsibilities. Qualifications -> Requirements (or Qualifications). The posting also has sections: Education/Experience, Communication Skills, Mathematical Skills, Computer Skills, Other Qualifications, Compliance, Work Environment and Physical Demands, Employment Requirements. Those could be considered part of Qualifications/Requirements/Skills. But we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine into Requirements (including education/experience, skills). Or we could have separate sections: Requirements (education/experience), Skills (communication, mathematical, computer, other). But we need to avoid filler. The posting has substantive content for each of those sub-sections. So we could create sections: Requirements (Education/Experience), Skills (Communication, Mathematical, Computer, Other). However the instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe better to have just Requirements and Responsibilities and About the role. But we need to preserve all substantive information; we can embed the skill details inside Requirements as lists. Thus we will have:
About the role
... position summary ...
Responsibilities
- ... each duty ...
Requirements
- ... each qualification item ...
. Responsibilities: list of duties broken into categories: Contracts, Subcontracts, Records, Contract Financing, Audits, Other. We need to preserve each bullet point. The original uses "·" bullet. We'll convert each to
- . We need to keep the sub-bullets? The original has main bullet with sub-items separated by "·" within same line? Actually they have main heading "Contracts:" then bullet list with "· Process and maintain ..." etc. Each bullet is a separate line starting with "·". So we can treat each as a list item. Thus we will produce a flat list of all duty items. Let's extract them: Contracts: - Process and maintain incoming / outgoing contract and subcontract documents, CDRLs, reports, billing requests and correspondence. - Review contract documents for contract terms and conditions and provide guidance and direction to the Program Managers and functional leads regarding requirements, terms, changes and potential conflicts. - Ensure procedures to process Over & Above Work Requests are established, understood and followed. - Serve as company empowered official for ITAR / Export control matters. - Attend contract Program Management Reviews (PMRs) and brief customer senior leadership on all matters related to contract performance. - Negotiate contract terms / conditions with government contracting officers. - Work with Finance to develop competitive and non-competitive proposals in support of current and future government contracts. - Maintain past performance information for development of new business proposals. - Provide Contracts Manager oversight for specific commercial contracts as directed.

Audits: - Act as focal point for all external DDCAA and DCMA contract audits. - Coordinate responses, dialog, and action plans related to audits and / or inquiries related to the contracts. Other: - Perform additional duties as assigned. Now Qualifications: we have sections: EDUCATION / EXPERIENCE, COMMUNICATION SKILLS, MATHEMATICAL SKILLS, COMPUTER SKILLS, OTHER QUALIFICATIONS, plus Compliance, Work Environment, Physical Demands, Employment Requirements (but we will fold those into Requirements). We need to preserve all. Let's extract each item.

Must have ability to write clear, concise reports, and procedures.

Actually line: "business correspondence". It seems like a subheading under Communication Skills: "business correspondence". Then next line: "Professionally communicate with internal and external customers at all levels." We'll treat as two items: maybe combine. But we need to preserve. Let's capture: - Strong oral and verbal communication skills to effectively and efficiently obtain and relay information to others in person, by phone, by e-mail and most importantly in writing. Must have ability to write clear, concise reports, and procedures. Must also be able to prepare and present effective briefings and response to questions from critical audiences’ members. - Professionally communicate with internal and external customers at all levels.
