for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Preserve all substantive info. Include a section only when posting has real specific content for it. Avoid filler like "commensurate with experience", etc. Do not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. The posting includes Pay: "$120,000 - $170,000 a year PLUS Uncapped Supplemental Compensation (Bonus) Plan paid out quarterly". Also Benefits: list of benefits under "Why work for MCA Connect?" includes compensation plan, generous benefit package, work/life balance with unlimited PTO, 401k with company matching, monthly stipend for home office, subsidized medical/dental/vision, HSA/FSA, company paid life and disability insurance, training/certification/continuing education support. Also maybe schedule? Not mentioned. Travel up to 50% is mentioned under qualifications/requirements. That's not schedule but travel requirement. No explicit schedule (like full-time, part-time). So we should not create Schedule section.
We need sections: About the role (maybe from description), Responsibilities, Qualifications (maybe combine Minimum qualifications and Desired qualifications?), Skills (maybe from qualifications list?), Benefits, Pay.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Title is "Dynamics 365 Solution Architect". Not to be used as heading.
We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's extract.
From description: "Through passion and deep industry expertise, MCA Connect helps manufacturers succeed by unlocking innovation with actionable business insights. Our strategic solutions, innovation, and industry intelligence help manufacturers gain visibility, improve profitability, and achieve a competitive edge. Established in 2002, MCA Connect has grown into one of the largest US-based solution partners in Microsoft Business Applications and Azure Data & AI / Digital & App Innovation. Our Microsoft Specialties include Finance and Supply Chain, Analytics on Azure, Data Warehouse Migration, and Power Platform. We’re also a fifteen-time Microsoft Partner of the Year and three-time Inc. Best Workplaces award winner."
That's about company. Could be "About the role" or "About MCA Connect". The instruction: use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have About the role (maybe summarizing role). But we need to preserve all substantive info; we can include company overview under About the role or maybe a separate "About MCA Connect" but not in list; but we should stick to allowed headings. Probably "About the role" can include description of role and company context.
Then Responsibilities: we have bullet points under Responsibilities with percentages. Need to capture all responsibilities. They are grouped under three categories with percentages. We'll list each bullet as
- .
Then Qualifications: Minimum qualifications list and Desired qualifications list. We'll combine maybe under Qualifications heading. Use
- .
Skills: maybe we can extract skills from qualifications: strong industry experience, excellent communication, planning, organization, customer relationship, ability to establish priorities, work independently, travel up to 50%, Bachelor's degree, fluent English, valid driver's license. Also desired qualifications: certification in other module, AX 2012 experience, Bachelor's in specific fields, Master Certification, Sure Step, experience with other modules, experience with ISVs, APICS CPIM/CSCP.

We'll list as bullet points.
Pay: "$120,000 - $170,000 a year PLUS Uncapped Supplemental Compensation (Bonus) Plan paid out quarterly". We'll put under Pay heading as
.
We must not include boilerplate: EEO, AI tools statement, etc. Remove duplicated lines. Also remove "Title Dynamics 365 Solution Architect Location Virtual, home-based office". The location is virtual/home-based; we might include location under About the role? Not required but could be included as prose. The instruction: do not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Location is minor metadata; we could include in a short
under About the role or separate paragraph. Probably include as a short paragraph after About the role heading.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So we will not have heading with title.
We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Let's craft.

Location: Virtual, home‑based office.
