Design Principal, Engineering Development (Mechanical)
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include sections where there is real specific content.
We have content: "Who are we?" could map to "About the role"? Actually "Who are we?" is company description, not role. But we can treat as "About the role"? The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to these headings as appropriate.
We have Job Summary (could be About the role). Responsibilities section present. Qualifications present. Benefits present. Pay present (targeted pay range). Schedule not present, so omit. Skills not explicitly separate; maybe we can embed within Qualifications or Responsibilities. But we should not create a Skills section if no specific content. Requirements maybe same as Qualifications? The posting has "Qualifications". We could treat that as Requirements? But we have both Requirements and Qualifications headings allowed. We need to decide: The posting includes "Qualifications". We could put that under Qualifications
. Requirements maybe not present; we could omit.
We also have "Who are we?" maybe we can put under About the role
(though it's about company). But we need to preserve all substantive information; we can include that as About the role.
We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Remove duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove the EEO statement, AI hiring process line, etc.
We need to preserve all substantive information: company description, job summary, responsibilities (list), qualifications, pay ranges, benefits description.
We need to format responsibilities as - . The responsibilities section is a long paragraph with many sentences; we need to break into list items? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The responsibilities are a list of duties; we can split each sentence or clause into
- . We need to preserve all substantive information; we can break into logical items.
Similarly qualifications: list items.
Benefits: we have description plus bullet list of US Benefits: Insurance, Retirement, PTO, etc. We'll make a
- for each benefit.
Pay: we have targeted pay range for three locations. We'll present as
maybe with details.
We must not include headings with filler text. Ensure no empty sections.
Let's extract content.

Responsibilities: The block after "Responsibilities The Design Principal, Engineering Development (Mechanical), reporting to the Director, Global Engineering Development, has responsibility for:" then a long list.
We need to parse that into list items.

That's a massive block with no punctuation between some sections. We need to split into sensible list items. We can treat each line separated by line breaks as items. The text appears to have line breaks after some phrases but also missing spaces. We'll approximate by splitting at capital letters after a period?
