We need to output only HTML fragment, no html/body tags, no markdown fences. Use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. Let's parse the posting.
We have:
- Responsibilities: a list of bullet points under "Responsibilities". So we need a
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. Let's parse the posting.
We have:
- Responsibilities: a list of bullet points under "Responsibilities". So we need a Responsibilities
then - each bullet.
- Qualifications: includes Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Could be under
Qualifications
with sub-lists? The instruction: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have a Qualifications section. Inside we can have for each bullet? Might need to separate Minimum and Preferred? Could just list all qualifications as list items. But we need to preserve all substantive info. We can include subheadings? Not allowed to use other heading levels? Only for section headings; we can still use
for prose and
- for lists. We could include a
Minimum Qualifications:
then etc. That's okay.
- About USDS: there is a paragraph about USDS TikTok USDS Joint Venture LLC. That's "About the role"? Actually "About USDS" is description of company. Could map to "About the role" heading? The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have an About the role section containing the description about USDS. The posting includes "About USDS TikTok USDS Joint Venture LLC is dedicated..." and also "Why Join Us", "Diversity & Inclusion", "USDS Reasonable Accommodation". Those are likely boilerplate or not required? We need to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "Why Join Us", "Diversity & Inclusion", "USDS Reasonable Accommodation" might be considered boilerplate? They are not exactly EEO but could be considered generic. However they contain substantive info about company culture. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." It doesn't say to remove "Why Join Us" or "Diversity & Inclusion". Those are not explicitly prohibited. However they might be considered fluff but still substantive. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could combine "About USDS", "Why Join Us", "Diversity & Inclusion" into an About the role section? Or we could have separate sections like "About the role" and maybe "Benefits"? There's also Pay and Benefits info.
We have Pay: compensation description: base salary range $114000 - $240000 annually, plus bonuses, RSU, etc. Also mention benefits: medical, dental, vision, 401(k) match, paid parental leave, etc. Also schedule: "As such, the company is shifting from a hybrid work model to a fully in-person schedule up to 5 days a week." That's schedule info.
Thus we should include sections: About the role (maybe combine About USDS, Why Join Us, Diversity & Inclusion, Reasonable Accommodation?), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must not include sections with placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Not needed.
We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Not present.
We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all details from About USDS, Why Join Us, Diversity & Inclusion, USDS Reasonable Accommodation? The latter is about accommodation process; could be considered legal/EEO? It's about reasonable accommodation for disabilities etc. Might be considered EEO/legal boilerplate. The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. Reasonable Accommodation is related to EEO. So we should remove that section.
Thus we keep About USDS, Why Join Us, Diversity & Inclusion.
Now we need to format.
We'll output:
About the role
... combined paragraphs ...
Then Responsibilities
- ... each bullet ...
Then Qualifications
Maybe we split into Minimum and Preferred using Minimum Qualifications:
then etc, then Preferred Qualifications:
then .
Then Benefits
- ... each benefit ...
Then Pay
... compensation description ...
Then Schedule
... schedule info ...
We must ensure we don't include any fluff like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
Now extract the substantive content.
About USDS paragraph:
"TikTok USDS Joint Venture LLC is dedicated to the safety and security of millions of Americans who create, discover, and connect with what they love on the apps we operate. The Joint Venture has been established in compliance with the Executive Order signed by President Trump on September 25, 2025. Our foundation is a comprehensive data privacy and cybersecurity program we operate under defined safeguards to protect national security and secure U.S. user data, apps and the algorithm. We safeguard the U.S. content ecosystem, holding decision-making authority for trust and safety policies and moderation. USDS Joint Venture helps ensure Americans can continue to express their creativity, discover new hobbies and interests, and build thriving communities and businesses on a global scale. On-site presence across teams allows the company to operate with greater speed, alignment, and agility — especially in areas like real-time decision-making, team development, and integrated execution. As such, the company is shifting from a hybrid work model to a fully in-person schedule up to 5 days a week."
Note: The schedule sentence appears also in About USDS; but we will also have a Schedule section later. Might duplicate. But we need to preserve all substantive info; duplication is okay? The instruction says remove duplicated lines. So we should avoid duplicating the same sentence. The schedule sentence appears in About USDS; we could keep it there or move to Schedule section. Since we have a Schedule section, we should avoid duplication. So we can omit the schedule sentence from About the role paragraph, and put it in Schedule section.
Thus About the role paragraph will be everything except the schedule sentence.
Now Why Join Us paragraph:
"Why Join Us Inspiring creativity is at the core of TikTok's mission. Our innovative product is built to help people authentically express themselves, discover and connect – and our global, diverse teams make that possible. Together, we create value for our communities, inspire creativity and bring joy - a mission we work towards every day. We strive to do great things with great people.

We're resilient and embrace challenges as they come. By constantly iterating and fostering an "Always Day 1" mindset, we achieve meaningful breakthroughs for ourselves, our company, and our users. When we create and grow together, the possibilities are limitless. Join us."
We need to ensure proper spacing; we can just copy.

We should include all that.
Now Pay:
Compensation Description (Annually) The base salary range for this position in the selected city is $114000 - $240000 annually.

Also earlier: "On-site presence across teams allows the company to operate with greater speed, alignment, and agility — especially in areas like real-time decision-making, team development, and integrated execution." That's about on-site presence but not schedule. We'll keep schedule as the shift to fully in-person up

Minimum Qualifications:
then- etc. That's okay.
- About USDS: there is a paragraph about USDS TikTok USDS Joint Venture LLC. That's "About the role"? Actually "About USDS" is description of company. Could map to "About the role" heading? The instruction says use
- ... each bullet ...
- ... each benefit ...
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have an About the role section containing the description about USDS. The posting includes "About USDS TikTok USDS Joint Venture LLC is dedicated..." and also "Why Join Us", "Diversity & Inclusion", "USDS Reasonable Accommodation". Those are likely boilerplate or not required? We need to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "Why Join Us", "Diversity & Inclusion", "USDS Reasonable Accommodation" might be considered boilerplate? They are not exactly EEO but could be considered generic.

We must not include sections with placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not needed. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Not present. We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all details from About USDS, Why Join Us, Diversity & Inclusion, USDS Reasonable Accommodation? The latter is about accommodation process; could be considered legal/EEO? It's about reasonable accommodation for disabilities etc. Might be considered EEO/legal boilerplate. The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. Reasonable Accommodation is related to EEO. So we should remove that section. Thus we keep About USDS, Why Join Us, Diversity & Inclusion. Now we need to format. We'll output:

The instruction says remove duplicated lines. So we should avoid duplicating the same sentence. The schedule sentence appears in About USDS; we could keep it there or move to Schedule section.
