We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes mission description at start, then role description, responsibilities, qualifications, benefits, pay, schedule? Let's parse. Content: - Intro: "Join Amgen’s Mission of Serving Patients At Amgen, if you feel like you’re part of something bigger, it’s because you are. Our shared mission—to serve patients living with serious illnesses—drives all that we do. Since 1980, we’ve helped pioneer the world of biotech in our fight against the world’s toughest diseases. With our focus on four therapeutic areas –Oncology, Inflammation, General Medicine, and Rare Disease– we reach millions of patients each year. Amgen is advancing a broad and deep pipeline of medicines to treat cancer, heart disease, inflammatory conditions, rare diseases, and obesity and obesity-related conditions. As a member of the Amgen team, you’ll help make a lasting impact on the lives of patients as we research, manufacture, and deliver innovative medicines to help people live longer, fuller happier lives. Our award-winning culture is collaborative, innovative, and science based. If you have a passion for challenges and the opportunities that lay within them, you’ll thrive as part of the Amgen team. Join us and transform the lives of patients while transforming your career." That's about the company, could be "About the role"? Actually it's about Amgen. Could be "About the role" or "About Amgen". The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to map content to these headings. We have: - About the role / company: The mission description. - Responsibilities: "Key Responsibilities:" list. - Requirements: "What We Expect Of You" includes Basic Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Could be Requirements (basic) and Preferred Qualifications maybe under Skills? But we have Qualifications heading. Could combine Basic and Preferred under Qualifications? Or separate Requirements (basic) and Skills (preferred). Let's see. The posting includes: "What We Expect Of You" with Basic Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Then "What You Can Expect Of Us" includes benefits, salary range, total rewards. Thus we can have: - About the role (company mission) - Responsibilities (Key Responsibilities) - Qualifications (Basic Qualifications) maybe as Requirements? But we have Requirements heading separate from Qualifications. Could treat Basic Qualifications as Requirements, Preferred Qualifications as Skills? Or combine both under Qualifications. The instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can include any of those that have real content. We have content for About the role (company mission). Responsibilities (list). Requirements (basic qualifications). Qualifications (maybe preferred qualifications). Skills (maybe some of the preferred qualifications like AI/ML, communication). Benefits (total rewards). Pay (salary range). Schedule? Not mentioned. So we omit Schedule. We must not include headings with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can format as lists. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. At the end there is EEO statement, accommodation request, etc. Must remove those. Also "Apply now and make a lasting impact with the Amgen team. careers.amgen.com" etc. Also "In any materials you submit, you may redact..." etc. Also "Application deadline..." etc. Also "Sponsorship..." etc. Also EEO statement. All that must be removed. We must keep substantive info: mission description, role description, responsibilities list, basic qualifications, preferred qualifications, benefits description, salary range statement. We need to ensure we don't lose any details like "Doctorate degree in Cancer Biology, Cell Biology, Genetics, or related field [and relevant post-doc where applicable] and 4 years of directly related experience OR Master’s degree ... OR Bachelor’s degree ... and 10 years of directly related experience". Also "In addition to meeting at least one of the above requirements, you must have at least 4 years experience directly managing people and/or leadership experience leading teams, projects, programs, or directing the allocation or resources." Preferred qualifications list: many bullet points. Benefits: "From our competitive benefits to our collaborative culture, we’ll support your journey every step of the way. The expected annual salary range for this role in the U.S. (excluding Puerto Rico) is posted. Actual salary will vary based on several factors including but not limited to, relevant skills, experience, and qualifications. In addition to the base salary, Amgen offers a Total Rewards Plan, based on eligibility, comprising of health and welfare plans for staff and eligible dependents, financial plans with opportunities to save towards retirement or other goals, work/life balance, and career development opportunities that may include: A comprehensive employee benefits package, including a Retirement and Savings Plan with generous company contributions, group medical, dental and vision coverage, life and disability insurance, and flexible spending accountsA discretionary annual bonus program, or for field sales representatives, a sales-based incentive planStock-based long-term incentivesAward-winning time-off plansFlexible work models where possible. Refer to the Work Location Type in the job posting to see if this applies." We need to keep that. We must not repeat the job title as a heading. The job title is "Director – Oncology Research". So we should not have an h3 for that. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Now produce HTML fragment. Structure:

About the role

mission paragraph(s)

Responsibilities

  • ... each responsibility

Requirements

Basic Qualifications: ... (maybe as list? Could be paragraph with OR statements). Could break into

    for each option? The instruction: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should convert the basic qualifications into a list. The basic qualifications are three options plus additional managerial experience requirement. Could list each option as
    • . Then also include the managerial experience requirement as separate
    • . Similarly for Preferred Qualifications: could be under

      Qualifications

      or

      Skills

      . Since we have both Qualifications and Skills headings available, we could put Preferred Qualifications under Qualifications, and maybe some specific skills under Skills. But to avoid too many sections, we could combine Preferred Qualifications under Qualifications as a list. But we also have Skills heading; we could put some of the preferred qualifications that are skills (e.g., "Exceptional written and verbal communication skills", "Demonstrated ability to use AI/ML") under Skills. However the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe just have Qualifications (including both basic and preferred) and Skills not needed. But we have to use headings only when there is real specific content. If we don't have content for Skills, we omit it. Thus we could have: - About the role - Responsibilities - Requirements (basic qualifications) - Qualifications (preferred qualifications) - Benefits - Pay (salary range) We need to include Pay section: The expected annual salary range... Actual salary will vary... That's pay info. We must not include Schedule. Now ensure we preserve all substantive information: The mission paragraph includes multiple sentences; we can keep as one

      or multiple

      . Probably one

      is fine. Responsibilities list: need to capture each bullet from "Key Responsibilities:": - Lead preclinical research for T cell engager focused on identification of novel target opportunities, prioritization of discovery investments, and implementation of next-generation target discovery approaches. - Build and lead a portfolio of innovative research programs focused on bispecific antibodies. - Lead a team of project leaders and lab-based scientists to; create an inclusive high-performing environment that enables new target discovery, rigorous science and efficient execution. - Lead cross-functional teams and engage key internal partners to integrate tumor biology, target validation, translational research, therapeutic modality considerations, and portfolio strategy. - Establish productive external scientific collaborations and contribute to evaluation of external opportunities, including business development diligence. - Partner effectively with peers across research and development to advance new science and integrate technology with tumor cell biology, including application of AI/ML approaches to target and biology evaluation. Note there is a stray semicolon after "to;" but we keep as is. Now Requirements (basic qualifications): Options: - Doctorate degree in Cancer Biology, Cell Biology, Genetics, or related field [and relevant post-doc where applicable] and 4 years of directly related experience - Master’s degree in Cancer Biology, Cell Biology, Genetics, or related field [and relevant post-doc where applicable] and 8 years of directly related experience - Bachelor’s degree in Cancer Biology, Cell Biology, Genetics, or related field [and relevant post-doc where applicable] and 10 years of directly related experience In addition to meeting at least one of the above requirements, you must have at least 4 years experience directly managing people and/or leadership experience leading teams, projects, programs, or directing the allocation or resources. We'll make each as

    • . The last one also as
    • . Now Qualifications (preferred qualifications): list each bullet: - Doctoral degree in a Cancer Biology, Cell Biology or related field with at least 12 years industry experience following completion of postdoctoral training. - Demonstrated experience leading drug discovery and development programs through IND/CTA-enabling activities, with strong experience in large-molecule therapeutics and understanding of the preclinical data sets required for development candidate nomination. - Deep understanding of oncology and tumor biology; expertise in NSCLC or lung cancer biology is strongly preferred. - Knowledge of antibody engineering approaches, with direct experience designing and evaluating modalities including T-cell engagers and antibody-drug conjugates. - Established record of building, mentoring, and leading high-performing research teams. - Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to synthesize complex data into clear strategic recommendations. - Demonstrated scientific impact through publications, patents, invited presentations, or other external recognition. - Demonstrated ability to use AI/ML to accelerate research and translational biology. We'll put these as
    • under Qualifications. Now Benefits: The paragraph under "What You Can Expect Of Us". We'll keep as

      maybe multiple sentences. Could break into

        for the list of benefits after colon? The text: "In addition to the base salary, Amgen offers a Total Rewards Plan, based on eligibility, comprising of health and welfare plans for staff and eligible dependents, financial plans with opportunities to save towards retirement or other goals, work/life balance, and career development opportunities that may include: A comprehensive employee benefits package, including a Retirement and Savings Plan with generous company contributions, group medical, dental and vision coverage, life and disability insurance, and flexible spending accountsA discretionary annual bonus program, or for field sales representatives, a sales-based incentive planStock-based long-term incentivesAward-winning time-off plansFlexible work models where possible. Refer to the Work Location Type in the job posting to see if this applies." We need to preserve the content exactly, but we can format as

        and maybe

          for the list after colon. However the instruction: Use
          • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should turn the benefits list into a
              . The benefits list includes: - A comprehensive employee benefits package, including a Retirement and Savings Plan with generous company contributions, group medical, dental and vision coverage, life and disability insurance, and flexible spending accounts - A discretionary annual bonus program, or for field sales representatives, a sales-based incentive plan - Stock-based long-term incentives - Award-winning time-off plans - Flexible work models where possible.
