We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, application instructions, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Key sections: - About the role: description of role, purpose, what they do. Could be first paragraph(s). The posting starts with "What We Do" about organization, then "External Candidate Application Deadline: Ongoing" then "Position Leading Educators is seeking a Director of Implementation, Design, and Coaching – ELA to serve as the strategic lead...". So we can have an "About the role" section summarizing that. - Responsibilities: list of duties: own full lifecycle of ELA implementation, build capacity, design and facilitate job-embedded professional learning cycles, conduct learning walks, debrief, be thought partner to district leadership, coach principals, design professional learning sessions, analyze student work data, etc. Also travel requirements? Travel maybe separate but could be part of responsibilities or schedule. We'll include travel in Responsibilities or maybe separate Schedule? The instruction: include Schedule section only if posting actually states schedule. It mentions travel requirements and location, but not regular work hours schedule. So we likely omit Schedule. - Requirements/Qualifications: The "Do you have expertise in…" bullet list (questions) and then "If you've answered affirmatively... This role calls for the following:" list of prerequisites. Those are qualifications. Also mention minimum 8 years experience, etc. Also mention ability to travel regularly, etc. Also mention practitioner-level competency with AI tools. So we can put those under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction says use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We can combine maybe "Qualifications" for the list, and "Skills" for specific skills like coaching, data analysis, etc. But we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps we can have one "Qualifications" section containing all prerequisites and skills. - Benefits: The posting includes Benefits section with compensation range, starting salary, geographic multiplier, benefits description (medical, dental, vision, 401k matching, FSA, EAP, time off). So we should include Benefits section. - Pay: The posting includes compensation details; we could put Pay section separate from Benefits, but Benefits already includes compensation. The instruction: include Pay section only if posting actually states them. It does state compensation range and starting salary. So we could have a Pay section for salary details, and Benefits for other benefits. However we might combine to avoid thin sections. But they said prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine Pay and Benefits into one Benefits section that includes compensation and benefits. But they have separate headings possible. We'll decide: include a "Benefits" section that includes compensation and benefits details. That seems substantive. - Skills: Could be extracted from the "Do you have expertise in…" list: leading instructional improvement initiatives, designing adult professional learning, K-8 literacy instruction, HQIM, Science of Reading, CA ELD Standards, managing complex multi-school implementation, building trust-based relationships, translating strategy into actionable plans, analyzing data, developing capacity of others. Those are skills/expertise. Could be a Skills section. - Responsibilities: we have many duties. Thus we could have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Skills, Qualifications, Benefits. That's five sections. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, application instructions, etc. So we need to cut out the "Equal Opportunity Employment" paragraph, the "Use of Artificial Intelligence in Hiring" paragraph, the "Questions? We're here to help." maybe that's application instruction? It's basically contact email; that's application instruction? It says if you have questions, reach out to talent@... That's basically contact for questions, could be considered application instruction? The instruction says remove application instructions. So we should remove that paragraph. Also remove "External Candidate Application Deadline: Ongoing" maybe considered metadata; we can drop it. Also remove "Learn more about our work at leadingeducators.org." maybe okay to keep as part of About the role? It's a link; but it's not substantive? It's a reference; we could keep but it's not essential. Might be okay to keep as part of About the role. But it's not required. Safer to keep it? It's not boilerplate; it's a link to learn more. Might be okay. We also need to remove duplicated lines. Not seeing duplicates. Now craft HTML. We'll produce:

or

for prose? Benefits includes multiple items; we can use

  • . Make sure not to include any empty sections. Now extract content. About the role: combine the "What We Do" paragraph(s) and the position description. Let's craft a concise but preserving all substantive info. Must not invent or summarize away detail. We need to preserve all substantive information; but we can rephrase? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." That suggests we should not omit details, but we can rephrase? It says do not summarize away detail. So we need to keep the details, but we can rewrite in our own words as long as we keep all details. Safer to copy sentences directly. Thus About the role could include: - Leading Educators mission: excellent teaching is most important driver of student success; preparing teachers to translate complex content knowledge, standards, and student knowledge into lessons that help them learn deeply and apply thinking to real world. - As a national nonprofit, partner with school systems to overcome instructional challenges, foster collaboration and adult learning by design, ignite new possibilities through systemic solutions at intersection of teaching, talent, technology. - Work shoulder-to-shoulder with educators at every level to strengthen instructional and leadership practices, bring vision for excellent instruction to life with consistency, ensure every student reaches full potential. - Through direct support, strategic advising, innovation pilots, best-in-class research, help educators work toward future where every student ready to thrive. - Learn more at leadingeducators.org. - Position: Director of Implementation, Design, and Coaching – ELA; strategic lead driving instructional transformation across seven schools in San Mateo-Foster City and Ravenswood City School Districts. - Own full lifecycle of ELA implementation—from launch through measurable impact—while building capacity of school and district leaders to sustain excellence in literacy instruction. - Hybrid leadership position demanding equal expertise in instructional coaching, professional learning design, strategic client partnership. - Work shoulder-to-shoulder with teachers, instructional leaders, district teams to translate complex literacy science into coherent, executable practice reaching every student.

We might also include travel requirements? Travel is separate but could be part of responsibilities: "Ability to travel regularly to school sites (typically weekly) within the San Mateo-Foster City and Ravenswood City School Districts, with occasional national travel for organizational events and professional development." Also "Outside of the above mentioned travel, this person will work from a home office that must be located in or near the approved cities above." That's more about location/work arrangement; could be under Responsibilities or maybe under Schedule? Since schedule not defined, we could put under Responsibilities as part of role expectations. We'll include travel as a responsibility bullet. Now Skills: from "Do you have expertise in…" list: - Leading instructional improvement initiatives and designing adult professional learning that translates to changes in classroom practice. - K–8 literacy instruction, high-quality instructional materials (including Benchmark, CKLA, and MyPerspectives), and the Science of Reading and its application to foundational skills, language development, and reading comprehension. - The California English Language Development (CA ELD) Standards and evidence-based practices for both Integrated and Designated ELD instruction. - Managing complex, multi-school implementation efforts at the district or school level, with the ability to establish systems that track progress, identify risks, and drive measurable outcomes. - Building trust-based relationships with school and district leaders, and maintaining those partnerships while holding firm to high standards for instructional quality and measurable impact. - Translating strategy into actionable project plans with clear milestones, and then managing execution with precision and adaptability. - Analyzing qualitative and quantitative data to uncover trends, root causes, and priority actions—and then leading structured conversations that help leaders act on those insights. - Developing the capacity of others, whether through direct coaching, facilitation, or team leadership, and seeing people grow into stronger instructional leaders. Also maybe "Practitioner-level competency with artificial intelligence tools and a willingness to leverage them for efficiency and insight" is a skill. We'll include that. Now Qualifications: from "This role calls for the following:" list: - Minimum of 8 years of professional experience in education, instructional leadership, curriculum implementation, or district-level instructional support. - Demonstrated experience leading complex implementation efforts across multiple schools or at the district level. - Proven track record designing high-quality professional learning aligned to standards and measurable instructional outcomes. - Direct experience providing coaching to school or district leaders and translating that coaching into observable changes in practice. - Experience serving as a primary client or partner relationship owner within a district or multi-school context, managing expectations and maintaining accountability for outcomes. - Experience managing and developing staff or team members, with clear responsibility for the quality of their execution. - Practitioner-level competency with artificial intelligence tools and a willingness to leverage them for efficiency and insight. - Ability to travel regularly to school sites (typically weekly) within the San Mateo-Foster City and Ravenswood City School Districts, with occasional national travel for organizational events and professional development. - Outside of the above mentioned travel, this person will work from a home office that must be located in or near the approved cities above. We could also include the geographic multiplier? That's part of compensation, not qualification. Now Benefits: include compensation and benefits details.
