Akamai provides industry-leading benefits including healthcare, 401K savings plan, company holidays, vacation (in the form of PTO), sick time, family friendly benefits including parental leave and an employee assistance program including a focus on mental and financial wellness; Eligibility requirements apply." We need to extract sections. We need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have content. - About the role: Should contain description of role, maybe the intro paragraphs about team and role. Could be "About the role" includes the description of the team and what they do, and the high-impact role. We'll include that. - Responsibilities: The bullet list after "As the Director of Engineering, you will be responsible for:" includes items: Managing mentoring, and growing a large, multidisciplinary global team of managers, software engineers, and architects; Driving the technical roadmap for the IAM platform, ensuring the platform is highly scalable, resilient, and optimized for global, low-latency AuthZ; Overseeing the end-to-end software development lifecycle to ensure all code meets our high standards for quality, safety and performance; Partnering closely with other teams to translate business vision into concrete technical milestones. We'll put these as
  • . - Requirements: Possibly the "To be successful in this role you will:" list: Have 15 years of relevant experience and a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or its equivalent; Have extensive experience leading large, distributed software engineering teams with a track record of delivering innovative software products; Possess a deep understanding of the IAM ecosystem; Have exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills, with a proven track record of aligning remote, global teams. That could be Requirements or Qualifications. We need both Requirements and Qualifications sections if content distinct. Usually Requirements are hard requirements (experience, degree). Qualifications could be preferred or additional. But we have only one list. We could split: Requirements: 15 years experience + Bachelor's degree. Qualifications: extensive experience leading teams, deep understanding IAM, communication skills. Or we could put all under Requirements and leave Qualifications empty (but we must not emit empty sections). So we need to decide. Better: Requirements: "Have 15 years of relevant experience and a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or its equivalent". Qualifications: "Have extensive experience leading large, distributed software engineering teams with a track record of delivering innovative software products; Possess a deep understanding of the IAM ecosystem; Have exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills, with a proven track record of aligning remote, global teams." Skills: Could be communication, stakeholder management, etc. But we already used those in qualifications. Might be redundant. Could omit Skills if no distinct content. Benefits: There's a Benefits section: "Benefits at Akamai: We support your health, well-being, finances, and life beyond work. See our benefits. FlexBase adapts to your job's needs Akamai's FlexBase program is yet another way we show our commitment to providing employees with an exceptional workplace experience.

We trust our incredible employees to work in ways that suit them best: at home, in an office, or a combination of both. Connect with us on social and see what life at Akamai is like!" Also later compensation includes benefits: healthcare, 401K, etc. So we have benefits content. Pay: Compensation details: base salary range $203,600 - $366,400/year; compensation for US based candidates only; compensation outside US varies; compensation package may also include incentive compensation opportunities: annual bonus or incentives, equity awards, ESPP. Also mention industry-leading benefits including healthcare, 401K savings plan, company holidays, vacation (PTO), sick time, family friendly benefits including parental leave and employee assistance program focusing on mental and financial wellness; Eligibility requirements apply. We need to separate Benefits and Pay. Benefits: health, well-being, finances, life beyond work, FlexBase, etc. Pay: salary range, bonus, equity, ESPP. Schedule: Not mentioned. No schedule info. So we should not include Schedule section. We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. Not present. We need to output HTML fragment only, with headings

    and content

    or

    • . We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Must not omit details. We need to include all details from the sections we choose. Let's craft sections:

      About the role

      Are you passionate about cutting edge technology? Do you want an opportunity to lead an amazing team of managers and engineers? Join our Akamai Platform IAM team! The Platform IAM team is part of Akamai's Cloud Technology Group. We design and operate customer-facing platforms enabling customers to configure and control their delivery, security, and cloud assets. This team owns the IAM tool sets for Akamai's customers using the Akamai Control Center website and the Cloud Manager website. We ensure customers have what they need to configure users for quality, safety, and performance. Partner with the best As the Director of Engineering, you will be in a high-impact, global leadership role responsible for steering the engineering strategy, architecture, and execution of Akamai's IAM platform. This leader will scale a high-performing, globally distributed engineering organization to deliver massive-scale, feature-rich, and performant IAM systems.

      But note we repeated "As the Director of Engineering..." which is also in Responsibilities. Might be duplication. However we need to preserve all substantive information; duplication is okay but we could avoid repeating. The instructions: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." It doesn't forbid duplication, but we should avoid unnecessary duplication? Not required. However we could keep the intro about role in About the role, and then Responsibilities list the specific responsibilities. Let's extract About the role: first paragraph up to "Partner with the best As the Director of Engineering, you will be in a high-impact, global leadership role responsible for steering the engineering strategy, architecture, and execution of Akamai's IAM platform. This leader will scale a high-performing, globally distributed engineering organization to deliver massive-scale, feature-rich, and performant IAM systems." That seems like role overview. Then Responsibilities: list after "As the Director of Engineering, you will be responsible for:" includes four items. We need to ensure we don't miss any details: The responsibilities list includes: - Managing mentoring, and growing a large, multidisciplinary global team of managers, software engineers, and architects - Driving the technical roadmap for the IAM platform, ensuring the platform is highly scalable, resilient, and optimized for global, low-latency AuthZ - Overseeing the end-to-end software development lifecycle to ensure all code meets our high standards for quality, safety and performance. - Partnering closely with other teams to translate business vision into concrete technical milestones, Note there is a trailing comma after last item; we can ignore. Now Requirements: "Have 15 years of relevant experience and a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or its equivalent" Qualifications: "Have extensive experience leading large, distributed software engineering teams with a track record of delivering innovative software products; Possess a deep understanding of the IAM ecosystem; Have exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills, with a proven track record of aligning remote, global teams" Skills: maybe not needed; we could omit. Benefits: We have two benefits paragraphs: first "Benefits at Akamai: We support your health, well-being, finances, and life beyond work. See our benefits. FlexBase adapts to your job's needs Akamai's FlexBase program is yet another way we show our commitment to providing employees with an exceptional workplace experience. It's not about telling employees where to work; it's about supporting
