Custodian Swing Shift 2026-27 - Chinook/Medina Split Assignment (Internal Applicants Only)
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. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (EEO, legal, etc). Must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must include Pay and Schedule only if posting actually states them. The posting includes: "Operating Engineers Salary Classification Custodian $ 32.96/hour to $ 33.96/hour based on negotiated collective bargaining agreement. 40 hours per week for a 260-day annual assignment." So we have Pay and Schedule info. Benefits: "Medical, dental, vision, long-term disability, and life-insurance eligibility is based upon 630 hours worked within a school year. Retirement provided through Washington State Department of Retirement Systems. Other benefits include vacation and paid holidays." So Benefits section.
We also have "Position Purpose" which could be About the role. Also "Commitment To Equity" maybe part of About the role? But we can include as part of About the role. However we must not create sections with filler. We'll include About the role (position purpose + commitment). Responsibilities: DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES list. Requirements: Required EDUCATION & EXPERIENCE, LICENSING REQUIREMENTS (none). Qualifications: maybe KNOWLEDGE? Actually they have sections: Required EDUCATION & EXPERIENCE, Preferred, LICENSING REQUIREMENTS, KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, Physical Requirements, Conditions Of Employment. We need to map to headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. The instructions: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide what goes where.
We have:
- About the role: Position Purpose + Commitment To Equity.
- Responsibilities: DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES list.
- Requirements: Required EDUCATION & EXPERIENCE (including preferred) and LICENSING REQUIREMENTS (none). Could also include Physical Requirements? Might be part of Requirements or Qualifications. But we have separate headings for Qualifications and Skills. The posting has KNOWLEDGE and SKILLS sections. So we can map:
- Qualifications: KNOWLEDGE (position Requirements At Entry) maybe also Required EDUCATION & EXPERIENCE? Actually they already have Required EDUCATION & EXPERIENCE under "Required EDUCATION & EXPERIENCE (positions in this class typically require):". That seems like Requirements. Then "Preferred" etc. So Requirements heading can contain education/experience and licensing.
- Qualifications: KNOWLEDGE (position Requirements At Entry) maybe also Physical Requirements? But Physical Requirements is separate; could be part of Qualifications? However we have a separate heading for Skills. The posting has SKILLS (position Requirements At Entry). So Skills heading for that.
- Qualifications could be KNOWLEDGE.
- Benefits: as described.
- Pay: salary range.
- Schedule: 40 hours per week for a 260-day annual assignment.
We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, etc. Also remove "Note", "Verification of identity...", "Notice of Non-Discrimination", etc.
We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all duties list exactly as given (but we can format as - ). Must not lose any detail.
We need to be careful to not include duplicated lines. The duties list has some run-on sentences without punctuation; we can keep as is.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no or , no markdown fences.
Let's craft:

Check for any leftover boilerplate: we removed note, verification, non-discrimination, etc. Good.
Check that we didn't repeat job title. Not present.
Check that we didn't include any filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
Check that we included all substantive info: Position purpose, commitment equity, duties list, reporting relationship? Actually we omitted "Reporting Relationship Reports to and is directly supervised by Building Administrator and Custodial Manager and/or Custodial Supervisor." That is substantive; we should include it somewhere, maybe in About the role or Responsibilities. Let's add it to About the role paragraph after commitment.
Add: "Reports to and is directly supervised by Building Administrator and Custodial Manager and/or Custodial Supervisor."
We also omitted "Conditions Of Employment" maybe not needed as separate section; but we could include some info under Requirements? However the posting includes "Conditions Of Employment Operating Engineers Salary Classification Custodian $ 32.96/hour to $ 33.96/hour based on negotiated collective bargaining agreement. 40 hours per week for a 260-day annual assignment. This position is covered by a collective bargaining agreement. Medical, dental, vision, long-term disability, and life-insurance eligibility is based upon 630 hours worked within a school year. Retirement provided through Washington State Department of Retirement Systems. Other benefits include vacation and paid holidays." We already captured Pay, Schedule, Benefits. The collective bargaining agreement mention could be added to Pay or Benefits. We'll add a sentence in Pay: "This position is covered by a collective bargaining agreement."
Also we omitted "Physical Requirements" section. That's substantive; we need to include it somewhere. Could be under Qualifications or Requirements. Since we have Qualifications for knowledge, Skills for skills, we could add Physical Requirements under Qualifications as a separate paragraph. Or we could create a separate section but we only have allowed headings list; we could add it under Qualifications as part of that section. Let's add a paragraph under Qualifications after knowledge: "Physical Requirements: Positions in this class typically require: stooping, kneeling, crouching, reaching, standing, walking, pushing, pulling, lifting, finger dexterity, grasping, talking, hearing, seeing, and repetitive motions. Heavy Work: Exerting up to 100 pounds of force occasionally, and/or up to 50 pounds of force frequently, and/or up to 20 pounds of forces constantly to move objects. Incumbents may be subjected to moving mechanical parts, odors, chemicals, extreme temperatures, inadequate lighting, workspace restrictions, and intense noises."
We must ensure we don't create a new heading; just include within Qualifications.
Also we omitted "Reporting Relationship" we added to About the role.
Check for any other omitted: "Note The above job description is intended to represent only the key areas of responsibilities; specific position assignments will vary depending on the business needs of the department." That's somewhat boilerplate but it's substantive about variability; we could include it under Responsibilities as a note. However it's kind of a note; but it's substantive. We could add a under Responsibilities: "Note: The above job description is intended to represent only the key areas of responsibilities; specific position assignments will vary depending on the business needs of the department." That seems okay.
Also "Verification of identity and authorization to work in the United States must be completed. The District does not currently provide visa sponsorship. All offers of employment are contingent upon satisfactory results of background checks with prior employers/professional references; satisfactory outcome of a criminal history background check (includes fingerprinting); satisfactory outcome of sexual misconduct information from prior school district employers; and approval by the Bellevue School Board." This is substantive but could be considered part of Requirements? It's about pre-employment checks. Could be added under Requirements
