We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The summary is about leading program. We'll create sections: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (conditions of employment?), Qualifications (ECQs, MTQ, education), Benefits (mention benefits package). Pay and Schedule not present, so omit. Must not include filler. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Also remove application instructions (like "Your application package must be in your own words..." etc). Also remove duplicated lines. Also remove "Help" tags? The text includes "Help" as markers; we should ignore them. We need to extract substantive content: Summary: "Leads the Flight Research and Demonstration Program, directing system level planning, management, and evaluation of research advancing aeronautics technologies. Develops strategies, allocates resources, assesses risk, coordinates with stakeholders, and ensures alignment with Agency goals while overseeing program operations and performance." Duties: list after "Duties Help The Director, Flight Research & Demonstration Program:" then bullet-like sentences separated by semicolons. We'll convert each to
  • . List items: - Develops overall program strategies and requirements, including objectives and outcomes consistent with Agency strategic goals and objectives; using inputs from a range of Research Center and external technical experts. - Assesses and allocates technical, budget and schedule requirements to program and other managers as required. - Ensures preparation of supporting plans and budgets, including program plans, program commitment agreements, and integrated program and budget documents. - Maintains cognizance of programs and projects as required, including performance, content, schedules, and resources. - Assesses technical, budget and schedule risks throughout program/project life cycles. - Ensures preparation of needed materials and supports briefings and presentations to Congress, the Office of Management and Budget, and other constituencies and stakeholders. - Supports the Aeronautics Division Director in high level interactions with a variety of external organizations, including industry, universities, and other government departments and agencies. - Cultivates strategic partnerships that accelerate transformative innovation and advance national aeronautics priorities. - Provides for the interpretation, dissemination, and implementation of program and program-related policy guidance for activities in the incumbent's areas of cognizance. - Anticipates new requirements, problems, opportunities, developments and trends so that new Mission Directorate initiatives can be planned and integrated with current activities and priorities. - Plans, manages, and oversees the activities of the Flight Research and Demonstration Program Office within the Aeronautics Division of the Research and Technology Mission Directorate, including organization design, staffing, work assignment and flow, and performance evaluation and improvement. We need to split at semicolons? Some items have internal semicolons. Better to keep each bullet as a sentence ending with period. The original uses semicolons to separate clauses; we can keep as is. Requirements: Conditions of employment list: - The individual selected will be required to file an 'Executive Branch Personnel Financial Disclosure Report' (OGE-278e) within 30 days of appointment and annually from then on. - Initial Senior Executive Service (SES) Career appointee is subject to a one-year probationary period. - Successful completion of a background investigation commensurate with the risk and sensitivity level of the position. - Successful completion of pre-employment and random drug testing may be required. - Must be able to obtain and maintain a security clearance as required by the position. - Must be a U.S. Citizen or National. - Must meet qualifications requirements by the closing date of this announcement. - Complete a Declaration for Federal Employment to determine your suitability for Federal employment, at the time requested by the agency. Qualifications: includes paragraphs about ECQs, MTQ, education. We'll need to capture substantive info: description of ECQs (list each with competencies), MTQ description, education requirement. We should not include boilerplate like "For more information on the ECQs, please visit OPM's ECQ webpage." That's maybe okay to keep? It's a reference but not substantive? Might be considered boilerplate but it's a link. Probably we can keep as it's part of qualifications description. However instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The ECQ reference is not those. Might keep. But we must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to include sections only when there is real specific content. We'll have sections: About the role (summary), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits. Benefits: text: "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. Opens in a new windowLearn more about federal benefits. Review our benefits 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." We should strip the "Opens in a new windowLearn more about federal benefits." maybe it's a link; but it's not substantive. Could keep but it's like navigation. Probably remove that phrase. Keep the rest. Now produce HTML:
