Director - AI Sales & Solutions

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About Us? Actually "About Us" is not a standard heading list; they said use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to those headings where appropriate. The posting includes "About Us", "Job Summary", "Role Description", "Behaviors and Competencies", "Skill Level Requirements", "Other Requirements", pay, benefits. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We should not repeat job title as heading. We should not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (maybe combine About Us and Job Summary?), Responsibilities (Role Description), Requirements (Other Requirements?), Qualifications (Skill Level Requirements?), Skills (maybe Behaviors and Competencies?), Benefits, Pay. Schedule not present, so omit. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Pay is present: "The estimated annual pay range for this position is $175,000 - $230,000 which includes a base salary and bonus." So include Pay section. Benefits: "Benefits may include, but are not limited to, medical, vision, dental, 401K, and flexible spending." So include Benefits. Schedule: not present, omit. We need to preserve all substantive info. So we need to include content from About Us, Job Summary, Role Description, Behaviors and Competencies, Skill Level Requirements, Other Requirements. We need to format using

for each section heading, then content as

or

• for lists. We need to decide which content goes where. Potential sections: - About the role: could contain About Us + Job Summary? But "About the role" maybe about the role description. However we have "Job Summary" separate. Could combine. Better to follow typical job posting: About the role (summary), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. Thus: About the role: include About Us and Job Summary (maybe short paragraph). We'll combine. Responsibilities: Role Description (list of duties). We'll convert bullet-like sentences into
  • . Requirements: maybe Other Requirements (education, experience, travel). Could also include Skill Level Requirements? But Skill Level Requirements is more like qualifications. We'll treat Skill Level Requirements as Qualifications. Skills: Behaviors and Competencies (list of competencies). Could also include Skill Level Requirements? But they are more like expertise levels. We'll put Skill Level Requirements under Qualifications. Thus:

    But we need to avoid duplication: The About Us paragraph includes some benefits statements that also appear later in Benefits section. We'll keep them in About the role? Might be duplication but we must preserve all substantive info; duplication is okay if it's in original. However we should avoid repeating same sentences verbatim? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." It doesn't forbid duplication. But we could keep About Us as is, and Benefits section separate. But we might want to avoid repeating the same benefit list twice. However it's okay. Now Responsibilities: we need to extract list items from Role Description.
