HybridFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes description: "RTX Corporation is an Aerospace and Defense company..." That's about the company. Could be "About the role" or "About the company". The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have: - About the role: we have role overview description: "Role Overview: As a Contracts Manager you will be skilled..." Also "What You Will Do:" list of duties. So we can have sections: About the role (maybe combine role overview), Responsibilities (What You Will Do), Qualifications (must have and preferred), Skills (maybe from preferred?), Benefits (benefits listed), Pay (salary range), Schedule (hybrid work location details). Also maybe "Location" but not required. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: EEO, privacy, etc. We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's extract. Company description: "RTX Corporation is an Aerospace and Defense company that provides advanced systems and services for commercial, military and government customers worldwide. It comprises three industry-leading businesses – Collins Aerospace Systems, Pratt & Whitney, and Raytheon. Its 185,000 employees enable the company to operate at the edge of known science as they imagine and deliver solutions that push the boundaries in quantum physics, electric propulsion, directed energy, hypersonics, avionics and cybersecurity. The company, formed in 2020 through the combination of Raytheon Company and the United Technologies Corporation aerospace businesses, is headquartered in Arlington, VA. The following position is to join our BBN Technologies team: RTX BBN is one of RTX’s premier research and development organizations. Our research portfolio transforms cutting-edge technology to deliver innovative, custom solutions with real-world benefits. We are seeking an experienced, trustworthy, contract professional with strong business acumen and initiative who thrives and enjoys working in a fast-paced, collaborative team environment, and who can navigate the contractual landscape with confidence and clarity and foster strong internal and external customer relationships. At RTX BBN you will join a respected, high impact contracts team, where your contracts experience will support a diverse portfolio of existing and new business pursuits with Government customers, large prime contractors and commercial clients." That's substantive; could be placed under "About the role" or maybe "About the company". Since they gave examples, we can use "About the role". We'll include that paragraph. Responsibilities: "What You Will Do :" list bullet points. Let's extract each bullet: - Advise and/or represent the organization on contract matters; Act as liaison between internal and external customers. - Review and interpret, negotiate, manage a variety of transactions, including Prime Contracts, Subcontracts with other primes, Other Transaction Agreements (OTAs), Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs), Associate Contractor Agreements (ACAs), Direct Commercial Sale Agreements, etc. - Review and assess US Government and commercial customer requests for proposals, identify proposal requirements and risks, assess intellectual property issues, review and redline terms and conditions, manage cost volume development, work with pricing and estimating to support proposal development, support gating and securing required management approvals, and support submission. - Review, interpret, summarize, redline, draft complex terms and conditions and other contract documents. - Negotiate complex customer contracts. - Recognize risk elements in business transactions and contracts and offer mitigation strategies/alternatives. - Provides strategic analysis, recommendations, and advice related to contract matters. - Ensure compliance with company policies, procedures and standards. - Understand forward pricing rates, cost structures, and other financial aspects of proposal and contract support. - Support global trade (ITAR/EAR) issues and CUI compliance requirements. - Work independently and report to a Senior Manager. - May provide mentoring and oversight to other contract staff. - Multi-task routine and complex contract and proposal activities while responding to unplanned quick response requirements as they emerge. - Work autonomously with limited oversight. - Limited travel may be required. We'll put each as
  • . Qualifications: "Qualifications You Must Have:" list: - Typically requires a University Degree or equivalent experience and a minimum of 8 years prior relevant experience, or an Advanced Degree in a related field and a minimum of 5 years prior relevant experience. - Experience engaging directly with customers. - Experience with US Government procurement and/or Other Transaction contracts. - Experience in applying and interpreting FAR, DFARS and other applicable US Government regulations in support of company proposal and contract administration activities. - Experience in interpreting, preparing and negotiating proposals and contracts, including terms and conditions, statements of work, milestones/deliverables, cost/price and fee/profit arrangements. - Willingness to support a hybrid role (mix of in person and remote). - Willingness to travel on a limited basis. "Qualifications We Prefer:" list: - TS/SCI eligibility - Strong communication and interpersonal skills to work effectively with cross-functional internal and external stakeholders, including customers and leadership teams. - Demonstrated ability to shape results in support of objectives. - Mature judgment, proactive involvement in strategic issues and demonstrated problem resolution skills. - Experience in leading and/or administering U.S. Government contracts under the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR), and/or Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations Supplement (DFARS) (to include proposal preparation, contract negotiation, change management). - Experience working Sole Source Proposals, subject to the Truthful Cost or Pricing Data Act (commonly known as the TINA). - Experience negotiating complex commercial terms and conditions, potentially including software licensing, international sales, complex data rights. - Experience with OTAs, NDAs, and ACAs. - Experience working with universities and familiarity with the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Uniform Guidance. - Experience dealing with Global Trade issues and familiarity with the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and Export Administration Regulations (EAR). - Experience interpreting and ensuring business compliance with company policy. - Experience working in/with Supply Chain (Subcontracts/Purchasing). - Excellent time management and organizational skills are essential. - Strong skills in Microsoft Office and Adobe Acrobat. We could separate "Qualifications" (must have) and maybe "Preferred Qualifications" but instruction only lists Qualifications as a heading. Could combine both under Qualifications with subheadings? But we must not invent headings not in list. Could we have two sections: Qualifications and Skills? The preferred list includes skills like communication, time management, etc. Could put those under Skills. But we need to decide. We have "Skills" heading possible. The preferred list includes many skill-like items. We could put under Skills: Strong communication and interpersonal skills, Demonstrated ability to shape results, Mature judgment, etc., Excellent time management and organizational skills, Strong skills in Microsoft Office and Adobe Acrobat. Also TS/SCI eligibility maybe a qualification. But we must not create sections with filler. We have real content for Skills, so we can include. Benefits: The posting mentions: "Hired applicants may be eligible for benefits, including but not limited to, medical, dental, vision, life insurance, short-term disability, long-term disability, 401(k) match, flexible spending accounts, flexible work schedules, employee assistance program, Employee Scholar Program, parental leave, paid time off, and holidays." Also incentive compensation programs. That's substantive. So we can include Benefits section with list. Pay: Salary range: "The salary range for this role is 107,500 USD - 204,500 USD." Also note about incentive compensation. We'll include Pay section with that range. Schedule: Hybrid work location details: "This position is a hybrid role to be performed in Cambridge, MA, Middletown, RI or Rosslyn, VA. Relocation assistance is available." Also "Work Location: Hybrid - Cambridge MA, Middletown RI, or Rosslyn VA". Also description of hybrid: "Employees who are working in Hybrid roles will work regularly both onsite and offsite. Ratio of time working onsite will be determined in partnership with your leader." Also mention limited travel may be required. So we can put Schedule section with hybrid details. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, privacy, etc. Now produce HTML fragment with

      This is a hybrid role with work locations in Cambridge, MA; Middletown, RI; or Rosslyn, VA. Employees work regularly both onsite and offsite, with the onsite ratio determined in partnership with the leader. Relocation assistance is available. Limited travel may be required.

      We need to ensure we didn't miss any substantive info: Also mention "U.S. Citizen, U.S. Person, or Immigration Status Requirements: The ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued security clearance is required. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance Security Clearance Type: DoD Clearance: Top Secret Security Clearance Status: Active and existing security clearance required after day 1". That's important; should be included maybe under Qualifications or a separate section like "Requirements". The instruction includes "Requirements" as possible heading. We have security clearance requirement. Could put under Requirements heading. Also mention "Position Role Type: Hybrid". Already covered. Thus we need a Requirements section for security clearance and citizenship. Let's add:

      Requirements

      • U.S. citizenship required (only U.S. citizens eligible for a security clearance).
      • Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued security clearance; DoD Top Secret clearance required and must be active and existing after day 1.
      We should also include maybe "Position Role Type: Hybrid" but that's covered in Schedule. Now ensure we didn't duplicate content: The Qualifications Must Have includes willingness to support hybrid role and travel; we already have schedule details. That's okay. Now check for any other substantive info: "Learn More & Apply Now!" is boilerplate to remove. "As part of our commitment to maintaining a secure hiring process..." is boilerplate about interview process; could be considered boilerplate? It's about process, not substantive job content. Likely remove. Also "The salary range provided is a good faith estimate..." is part of Pay; we kept the range but maybe we can keep the sentence about good faith estimate? It's substantive about the range being estimate. Could include in Pay paragraph: "The salary range for this role is 107,500 USD - 204,500 USD. The salary range provided is a good faith estimate representative of all experience levels." That's okay. Also "Hired applicants may be eligible for annual short-term and/or long-term incentive compensation programs depending on the level of the position and whether or not it is covered by a collective-bargaining agreement." That's part of Benefits or Pay? Could add to Benefits as incentive compensation. We'll add a bullet. Also "Specific benefits are dependent upon the specific business unit as well as whether or not the position is covered by a collective-bargaining agreement." That's also benefits detail. Also "This role is a U.S.-based role. If the
