We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule? Only include sections if posting has real specific content. The posting includes "About The Role" content. Responsibilities section present. Requirements section present. Benefits present. Pay: there is a base pay range: "Career Level 2 base salary is USD $125,000-150,000." Also mention additional rewards, etc. So we can include Pay section with that info. Schedule: not mentioned. So omit Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. Use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive info, no boilerplate. Remove EEO etc. Remove duplicated lines. Remove navigation/cookie etc. Remove application instructions. We need to include the "About The Role" paragraph(s). The posting includes a paragraph about Samsung SDS America then "About The Role". We need to include the description of the role: "We are seeking an experienced Database Administrator to manage, optimize, and secure enterprise database environments while maintaining the highest standards for performance, availability, and data integrity. This role places a strong emphasis on protecting Personally Identifiable Information (PII) through encryption, access controls, and other data protection technologies. The ideal candidate will possess both traditional database administration expertise and a strong understanding of database security, ensuring enterprise databases remain highly available, compliant, and protected against evolving security risks." We should keep that as prose under About the role. Responsibilities: there are two sub-sections: Database Administration (list of bullet points) and Database Security & PII Encryption (list). We need to combine into a single list? The instruction: Use

    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can create a
        with all responsibility items. Could also separate with headings? But only headings allowed are

        for sections. We could have subheadings? Not allowed? Only

        for section headings. Could still include

        ? Not specified; better to stick to

        only for sections. So we can just list all responsibilities in one
          . Ensure we capture all bullet points. Let's extract responsibilities: Database Administration: - Install, configure, administer, and maintain enterprise relational database platforms, including MS SQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server - Monitor database performance and system health, proactively tuning queries, indexes, and storage to maximize efficiency - Manage database backup, recovery, and disaster recovery strategies to ensure business continuity - Maintain highly available database environments through replication, clustering, and failover technologies - Perform capacity planning, database upgrades, patch management, and lifecycle maintenance activities - Troubleshoot complex database issues while partnering with application development teams on schema design, query optimization, and overall database performance improvements Database Security & PII Encryption: - Design, implement, and maintain encryption solutions for databases containing Personally Identifiable Information (PII), ensuring data is protected both at rest and in transit - Administer encryption keys and integrate databases with enterprise Key Management Systems (KMS) and Hardware Security Modules (HSM) - Implement appropriate encryption methodologies, including Transparent Data Encryption (TDE), column-level encryption, and tablespace encryption - Establish and enforce data masking, tokenization, and role-based access controls for sensitive information - Collaborate with Information Security and Compliance teams to ensure adherence to applicable regulatory frameworks, including GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and CCPA - Conduct routine audits of database access, security configurations, and encryption controls to identify and mitigate risk - Support security investigations and incident response activities involving database security or potential data exposure Now Requirements: - Minimum of 4 years of experience as a Database Administrator or in a closely related role - Strong hands-on experience administering one or more enterprise relational database platforms, including SQL Server and PostgreSQL - Demonstrated experience implementing database encryption technologies such as Transparent Data Encryption (TDE), column-level encryption, or equivalent solutions - Experience working with enterprise key management practices and technologies - Strong understanding of database security principles, access controls, auditing, and data protection best practices - Experience designing and supporting backup, recovery, disaster recovery, and high-availability database environments - Solid knowledge of SQL performance tuning and database optimization techniques Preferred Qualifications (maybe we can include under Requirements or separate? The instruction: Use

          for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we could have a Qualifications section for preferred qualifications. But we could also incorporate into Requirements. Better to follow headings: we have Requirements and Qualifications. We'll put minimum requirements under Requirements, and preferred qualifications under Qualifications. Thus:

          Requirements

            ... (the 7 items)

          Qualifications

            ... (preferred qualifications)
          Preferred qualifications list: - Experience administering cloud-hosted database platforms such as AWS RDS, Azure SQL Database, or Google Cloud SQL - Familiarity with regulatory and privacy compliance frameworks including GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, and PCI-DSS - Experience developing automation scripts using Python, Bash, or PowerShell - Industry certifications related to database administration or cloud database technologies (e.g., Microsoft SQL Server Certification, AWS Database Specialty) Benefits: The posting repeats benefits twice. We need to capture unique benefits: "Top-notch medical, dental, vision and prescription coverage", "Wellness program", "Parental leave", "401K match and savings plan", "Flexible spending accounts", "Life insurance", "Paid Holidays", "Paid Time off", "Additional benefits" (maybe vague). Also later: "U.S.-based employees have access to medical, dental, and vision insurance, a 401(k) plan and company match, short-term and long-term disability coverage, basic life insurance, and wellbeing benefits, among others." Also "U.S.-based employees also receive, per calendar year, up to 10 scheduled paid holidays, and Paid Time Off." We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent. So we should list benefits as described. Avoid duplication. Let's compile a set: - Top-notch medical, dental, vision and prescription coverage - Wellness program - Parental leave - 401K match and savings plan - Flexible spending accounts - Life insurance - Paid Holidays - Paid Time off - Short-term and long-term disability coverage - Wellbeing benefits (maybe duplicate of wellness program) - Up to 10 scheduled paid holidays per calendar year (already covered) - Paid Time Off (duplicate) - Additional benefits (vague) maybe we can keep as "Additional benefits" but it's vague; maybe we should omit because it's not specific. The instruction: do not include filler/placeholder text like "Additional benefits". So we should omit that line. Thus benefits list: medical/dental/vision/prescription, wellness program, parental leave, 401K match and savings plan, flexible spending accounts, life insurance, paid holidays, paid time off, short-term and long-term disability coverage, wellbeing benefits. We could combine some: "medical, dental, vision and prescription coverage" etc. Pay: we have base pay range: "Career Level 2 base salary is USD $125,000-150,000." Also mention additional rewards including annual bonus. Also mention that base pay depends on factors. We'll include that as prose under Pay. Schedule: not present, omit. Now construct HTML. We need to ensure no extra text outside HTML. No markdown fences. Let's craft:
