Could include a short

after the intro summarizing clearance and travel. We need sections: About the role (maybe from description/intro), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have content. - About the role: we have description paragraph about Northrop Grumman, ATL, Position Summary. That's substantive. - Responsibilities: we have list of responsibilities: leading wafer fabrication functions, staffing, work prioritization, budget oversight, cross-functional alignment, execution support, hiring, onboarding, performance management, time-charging approval, employee development. Also leadership opportunity bullet points. Could be separate. - Requirements: Basic Qualifications (must-have). Could be Requirements. - Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications. - Skills: maybe we can extract skills like excellent verbal/written/presentation, business/financial acumen, critical thinking, data-informed decision-making, etc. But those are already in qualifications.
