We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings using

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate etc. We need to parse the posting. Key info: - Salary: $109,230.00 - $121,367.00 Annually (also later: Salary Range: $109,30 - $121,367 annually, depending on qualifications and experience). There's a typo: $109,30 likely missing digits; but we must preserve as given? The posting says "$109,30 - $121,367 annually". That seems erroneous but we must preserve. However we also have earlier "$109,230.00 - $121,367.00 Annually". We need to preserve all substantive info; we can include both? Might be duplicate. We should include the salary range as given; maybe combine? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we should keep both mentions? Could be redundant but we can include both as separate sentences. However we should avoid duplication? The instruction says remove duplicated lines. So we should not duplicate identical lines. The two salary lines are slightly different: one has $109,230.00 - $121,367.00 Annually; the other says Salary Range: $109,30 - $121,367 annually, depending on qualifications and experience. They are not identical; we keep both. - Job Number: 00943 (metadata, we can fold into short p or drop). Probably drop or include in a short p. - Location: Shoreline College, WA - Department: Automotive Program - Position Summary: includes description. - Date of First Consideration: September 9, 2026 (metadata). Could be in a short p. - Applications received by the date of consideration will have priority... (process). Could be part of summary. - Welcome! Learn More About Shoreline AND Video Tour Our Campus! Professional Automotive Training Center (maybe fluff). Might be considered boilerplate? It's promotional but maybe keep as part of About the role? It's not a standard heading; we could include in a paragraph under About the role. - The Director of Automotive Programs provides visionary leadership... (responsibilities). This is the role description. - As the College's lead representative... (more responsibilities). - The Director works collaboratively... (more responsibilities). - The successful candidate combines technical credibility... (qualities). - Why Join Shoreline? (benefits? maybe benefits section). It describes why join: built program, opportunity to build on foundation, lead innovations, shape future. That's more like benefits/motivation. - Qualifications Required Education & Experience: list. - Preferred Education & Experience: list. - Knowledge Of: list. - Skilled In: list. - Conditions of Employment Physical Work Environment: details. - Terms Of Employment/Salary: details about full-time administrative/exempt contracted position, initial salary placement, hiring contingent on funding. - Required Materials: list. - Other Conditions: EEO etc (boilerplate to remove). Also accommodation statement, etc. We need to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should remove the EEO statement, accommodation, etc. Also remove "Other Conditions" that are legal. Also remove "To apply, please visit ..." and copyright etc. We need to keep substantive info: responsibilities, qualifications, knowledge, skills, conditions of employment (work environment, terms), required materials maybe? Application instructions are to be removed per instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove Required Materials (application instructions). Also remove "To apply, please visit ..." and copyright. Thus we keep: About the role (position summary), Responsibilities (maybe combine with summary), Requirements (maybe qualifications), Skills (maybe knowledge and skilled in), Benefits (Why Join Shoreline?), Pay (salary), Schedule (maybe work schedule mentions weekends/evenings). Also Conditions of Employment (physical work environment, remote work, etc.) could be part of Schedule or a separate section like Working Conditions. But we only have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can map content accordingly. We need to decide which sections to include. - About the role: could be the position summary paragraph: "The Director of Automotive Programs provides visionary leadership..." etc. - Responsibilities: maybe the bullet list of duties: leads faculty, develops strategic partnerships, advances innovative workforce pathways, provides strategic leadership in program planning, industry engagement, accreditation, enrollment growth, workforce development, customized training, continuous improvement, works collaboratively with faculty, staff, employers, K-12 partners, workforce agencies, community organizations, ensures programs remain responsive, etc. Also "The successful candidate combines technical credibility, collaborative leadership, and business acumen." That's more qualifications. - Requirements: maybe the required education & experience (five years progressive leadership experience, bachelor's degree or equivalent). Also maybe "Required Education & Experience:" list. - Qualifications: maybe the preferred education & experience list. - Skills: maybe the Knowledge Of and Skilled In lists. - Benefits: Why Join Shoreline? paragraph. - Pay: salary range info. - Schedule: mention of work schedule: full-time, may work weekends and evenings when appropriate, remote work possibilities, need to attend meetings on/off campus, etc. We must not create sections with placeholder/filler text. Ensure each heading has substantive content. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID etc. We must output only HTML fragment. Let's extract substantive content precisely.
