DECKHAND (SHIPKEEPER) LEADER.

ManagementFull-time
We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: Duties, Requirements, Qualifications, maybe Benefits, Pay, Schedule if present. The posting includes Duties list, Requirements (conditions of employment), Qualifications (who may apply, experience, etc.), Benefits mention: "A career with the U.S. government provides employees with a comprehensive benefits package." That's generic but not specific; we should not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It says "A career with the U.S. government provides employees with a comprehensive benefits package." That's a statement about benefits but not specific details. According to rule: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. This is vague but it's stating there is a benefits package; maybe we can include Benefits section with that sentence? It's not placeholder; it's a statement. However it's generic; but rule says "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". This is not filler; it's actual content. I'd include Benefits section with that sentence. Pay: "Salary includes applicable locality pay or Local Market Supplement." That's specific about salary includes locality pay. So we can create Pay section with that sentence. Schedule: Not mentioned. No schedule info. So omit Schedule. We need headings:

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we should only include sections that have real content. The posting uses "Duties" not "Responsibilities". We can map Duties to Responsibilities heading? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It suggests we can use those headings. We have Duties content; we could use

Responsibilities

for duties. Or we could use About the role? Probably Responsibilities fits duties. We'll use Responsibilities. Requirements: we have Conditions of employment etc. Use

Requirements

. Qualifications: we have Who May Apply, experience, etc. Use

Qualifications

. Benefits: we have statement about benefits package. Use

Benefits

. Pay: we have salary includes locality pay. Use

. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Must keep details. We need to format duties as
  • each duty. The duties list includes many sentences. We'll extract each bullet. Duties text: "Prepares the interior and exterior of vessel for using in accomplishing daily mission. Fixes minor repairs to vessel hull, deck, and machinery to maintain vessel in operating condition. Maintains splices and rope for rigging and roping of supplies. Dismantles and assemble equipment for proper functionality and daily use. Directs drift and debris into nets to maintain cleanliness of harbor. Fastens hawsers and mooring ropes to pier and other crafts. Observes safety procedures for crew and all passengers in accordance with safety and health regulations. Operates safely in hazardous situations and under dangerous conditions. Follows established operating practices and techniques to conduct waterway missions and floating plant maintenance. Understand specifications and procedures for attaching hooks, slings, rig and/or tie-lines to items such as wrecks, nets, pilings, buoys etc. Lifts and stacks drift debris onto barges to maintain cleanliness of harbor. Hoists boom gears and levers to load and unload supplies onto and off the ship." We'll make each a
  • . Requirements: The block after "Requirements Conditions of employment". It includes many sentences. We'll keep as

    maybe with

      if list? It's not a list but sentences. We'll keep as

      preserving all text. However we need to ensure we don't lose line breaks. We'll just put the whole block in a

      . Might be long but okay. Qualifications: includes "Who May Apply:" list, then experience requirements, Minimum Qualifications, Required Conditions of Employment, etc. We'll keep as

      maybe with

        for the Who May Apply list. The list is many items separated by line breaks. We'll convert to
        • . Also the Minimum Qualifications (Screen Out Element) etc. We'll keep as

          paragraphs. We need to preserve all substantive info; we should not drop any details like websites for MMC and TWIC. Include them. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. The text includes some like "Additional information Male applicants born after December 31, 1959, must complete a Pre-Employment Certification Statement for Selective Service Registration." That's not boilerplate; it's a requirement. Keep. Also "You will be required to provide proof of U.S. Citizenship." Keep. "One year trial/probationary period may be required." Keep. "Direct deposit of pay is required." Keep. "Selection is subject to restrictions resulting from Department of Defense referral system for displaced employees." Keep. "If you have retired from federal service and you are interested in employment as a reemployed annuitant, see the information in the This is a(n) Transportation Management Career Field position." This seems garbled; but we keep as is? Might be boilerplate but it's about reemployed annuitant. Probably keep. "Multiple positions may be filled from this announcement." Keep. "Salary includes applicable locality pay or Local Market Supplement." Already used for Pay. "Payment of Permanent Change of Station (PCS) costs is not authorized, based on a determination that a PCS move is not in the Government interest." Keep. "Candidates should be committed to improving the efficiency of the Federal government, passionate about the ideals of our American republic, and committed to upholding the rule of law and the United States Constitution." Keep. "A career with the U.S. government provides employees with a comprehensive benefits package. As a federal employee, you and your family will have access to a range of benefits that are designed to make your federal career very rewarding. Eligibility for benefits depends on the type of position you hold and whether your position is full-time, part-time or intermittent. Contact the hiring agency for more information on the specific benefits offered." This is benefits text; we will put in Benefits section. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll structure:

          Responsibilities

          • ...
          • ...

          Requirements

          ... (all requirements text)

          Qualifications

          ... maybe with subsections? We'll keep as

          but include

            for Who May Apply list. We need to ensure we don't lose any content. Let's extract Requirements text exactly: "Conditions of employment Appointment to this position is subject to a background investigation to determine your suitability for Federal employment.This position is subject to a pre-employment screening, and random testing thereafter, to include testing based on reasonable suspicion and testing due to direct involvement with an on-duty accident.This position requires alcohol testing per ER 690-1-1218.This position requires the completion of a pre-employment Physical Examination to ensure the required level of physical health and ability or fitness to perform the duties of the position.Appointment to this position is subject to a one year probationary period unless the appointee has previously met the requirements as described in 5 CFR Part 11.This position has a Temporary Duty (TDY) or business travel requirement of up to 25% of the time.Subject to recall 24 hours a day, 7 days a week due to an emergency situation such as plane crashes, hurricanes etc.This position requires possession of a current, valid USCG Merchant Mariner Credential for Master of Motor Vessels of at Least 100 Gross Tons Near Coastal license.This position requires possession of a current, valid Transportation Workers Identification Credential." Note there are missing spaces after periods; we will keep as is but maybe add spaces for readability? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Adding spaces could be considered altering but not changing meaning. Safer to keep original text exactly. However original lacks spaces; we can keep as is. It's okay.
