We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes description. We need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real content. No Pay or Schedule if not present. Benefits present. Also maybe "Why HR Green?" could be Benefits? Actually Benefits section present. Also maybe "What You'll Do" corresponds to Responsibilities. "What You Bring" corresponds to Requirements/Qualifications/Skills. We need to map.
We must not repeat job title. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc. Also remove navigation etc.
We need to preserve all substantive info. Use for headings. Use
for headings. Use - for lists. Use
for prose.
We need to decide sections:
- About the role: maybe introductory paragraph about mission and role overview. Could be first paragraph: "Design Infrastructure That Keeps Communities Moving At HR Green...". That's about the role and company. We'll put that in About the role.
- Responsibilities: "What You'll Do" with bullet points. We'll list each bullet as
- . Could group into sub-sections? But we just need a list.
- Requirements: maybe "Required Qualifications". Could be Requirements heading.
- Qualifications: maybe "Preferred Qualifications". Could be Qualifications heading.
- Skills: maybe combine technical skills? Could be part of Requirements. But we need a Skills section only if there is specific content. The posting mentions proficiency with Geopak Drainage and ORD-DU, strong analytical, problem-solving, technical writing, verbal communication. Those could go under Skills.
- Benefits: present.
- Pay: not present, omit.
- Schedule: not present, omit.
We must not create empty sections.
We need to ensure we don't repeat content. We'll extract.
Let's parse content:
Intro paragraph: "Design Infrastructure That Keeps Communities Moving At HR Green, our mission is simple: Building Communities. Improving Lives. For more than 110 years, we've partnered with municipalities, counties, transportation agencies, and public-sector clients to deliver infrastructure solutions that strengthen communities and improve quality of life. Today, we're proud to be consistently ranked on Engineering News-Record's Top 500 Design Firms list while also earning recognition as a Great Place to Work. We're seeking an experienced Drainage Design Engineer to join our growing Drainage / Hydrology & Hydraulics team in Houston. This is an opportunity for a licensed PE to take ownership of meaningful drainage design work, work directly with clients, mentor developing engineers, and build the project leadership experience needed for the next stage of your career. Our team provides planning, design, and construction-phase engineering services for a diverse portfolio of municipal, county, and state roadway improvement projects. You'll work alongside knowledgeable engineers in a collaborative environment where you'll have access to technical mentorship while also being trusted with significant responsibility. If you're looking for more ownership of your designs, greater client exposure, and a role that gives you room to grow toward project management or technical leadership, we'd love to talk with you."
That's About the role.
Responsibilities: "What You'll Do As a Drainage Design Engineer, you'll serve as a key technical contributor on drainage and water resources projects while taking on increasing responsibility for project delivery, client communication, mentoring, and team coordination." Then subheadings: Drainage Design & Technical Leadership, Project Leadership & Client Exposure, Mentorship & Professional Growth. Each has bullet points.
We'll combine all bullet points into a single list under Responsibilities.
Let's extract bullet points:
From Drainage Design & Technical Leadership:
- Independently lead drainage, hydrology, and hydraulic analysis and design assignments using professional engineering judgment.
- Support drainage analysis and design for municipal, county, and state roadway improvement projects.
- Make significant design decisions and take ownership of engineering deliverables from development through completion.
- Serve as a technical expert on assigned projects and provide guidance to engineering and technical staff.
- Perform formal and informal QA/QC reviews to ensure accuracy, quality, and consistency of project deliverables.
- Prepare, review, sign, and seal engineering documents as an authorized representative of HR Green.
- Apply strong analytical and problem-solving skills to both routine and complex engineering challenges.
- Utilize Geopak Drainage and OpenRoads Designer - Drainage and Utilities (ORD-DU) in project delivery.
From Project Leadership & Client Exposure:
- Work closely with Project Managers on project planning, execution, schedules, staffing, and deliverables.

- Participate in professional organizations and industry activities that expand your technical expertise and professional network.
Now Requirements/Qualifications:
Required Qualifications:
- Bachelor's or master's degree in Civil Engineering or a related engineering discipline from an accredited university.
- 6+ years of progressive design/engineering experience, including previous drainage design experience.
- Current Professional Engineer (PE) registration in one or more states where HR Green conducts business, or the ability to obtain appropriate registration within six months of employment.
- Demonstrated ability to independently complete engineering designs and act as an authorized representative of the company to sign engineering documents.
- Experience with drainage, hydrology, and hydraulic analysis and design.
- Proficiency with Geopak Drainage and/or OpenRoads Designer - Drainage and Utilities (ORD-DU).
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to apply professional engineering knowledge to routine and complex assignments.
- Strong technical writing and verbal communication skills, including the ability to read and interpret engineering plans and technical literature.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Drainage design experience associated with roadway or transportation improvement projects.

- Experience providing technical direction or mentorship to junior engineers.
- Client-facing project experience.
- Experience supporting project scopes, schedules, proposals, and fee development.
- Interest in growing toward project management, technical leadership, or a combination of both.
Skills: Could be derived from both required and preferred: proficiency with software, analytical, problem-solving, technical writing, verbal communication, mentorship, client-facing, proposal preparation, etc. But we already have those in Requirements/Qualifications. To avoid duplication, maybe we don't need a separate Skills section; we can incorporate skills into Requirements. However the instruction says we can have Skills section if there is specific content. We could create Skills section listing technical skills: Geopak Drainage, OpenRoads Designer - Drainage and Utilities (ORD-DU), drainage/hydrology/hydraulic analysis, technical writing, verbal communication, analytical/problem-solving, mentorship, client communication, proposal preparation. But that would duplicate content from Required/Preferred. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is okay as long as we preserve info. But we should avoid unnecessary repetition? Not explicitly forbidden. However better to keep sections distinct: Requirements (required qualifications), Qualifications (preferred qualifications), Skills (technical skills). But we already have technical skills in required. Might be okay to put them under Skills and not repeat in Required? But then we would lose some required info like degree, years experience, PE registration, ability to sign documents. Those are not skills. So we can keep Required Qualifications for those, and Skills for technical proficiencies.
Thus:
- About the role: intro paragraph.
- Responsibilities: list of duties (the bullet points above).
- Requirements: Required Qualifications list.
- Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications list.
- Skills: list of technical skills: Proficiency with Geopak Drainage and OpenRoads Designer - Drainage and Utilities (ORD-DU); Strong analytical and problem-solving skills; Strong technical writing and verbal communication skills; Ability to read and interpret engineering plans and technical literature; Experience with drainage, hydrology, and hydraulic analysis and design; Mentorship and client-facing experience; Participation in professional organizations; Experience supporting project scopes, schedules, proposals, and fee development. But some of these are already in Preferred. Might be okay.
But we need to ensure we don't invent content. All items must be from posting. Let's extract skills explicitly mentioned:
- Proficiency with Geopak Drainage and/or OpenRoads Designer - Drainage and Utilities (ORD-DU).
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Strong technical writing and verbal communication skills.
- Ability to read and interpret engineering plans and technical literature.
- Experience with drainage, hydrology, and hydraulic analysis and design.
- Experience providing technical direction or mentorship to junior engineers.
- Client-facing project experience.
- Experience supporting project scopes, schedules, proposals, and fee development.
- Participation in professional organizations and industry activities.
These are all present.
Now Benefits: list from "Why HR Green?" and "Benefits" section.
Benefits bullet points:
- Employee ownership opportunities
- Performance-based bonus program
- Traditional and Roth 401(k) plans with immediate employer-match vesting
- Medical, dental, and vision coverage
- Tuition reimbursement and professional development support
- Paid parental leave
- Two paid volunteer days each year
- Flexible career paths and advancement opportunities
- A collaborative culture that values innovation, teamwork, and professional growth
Also "Take ownership of meaningful work..." etc are more about role, but could be part of Benefits? Actually those are under "Why HR Green?" which is more about role benefits. Could be included in Benefits as well. But we already have Benefits list; we could add those as additional bullets: Take ownership of meaningful work rather than simply completing assigned design tasks; Work on a diverse portfolio of municipal, county, and state roadway and drainage projects; Gain direct client exposure and become a trusted technical resource to the agencies and communities we serve; Build project management experience by leading smaller and specialty projects; Continue developing technically with access to experienced engineers, mentorship, and collaborative problem-solving; Mentor junior engineers and expand your own leadership capabilities; Increase your involvement in proposals, professional organizations, and business development; Build a flexible career path toward project management, technical leadership, or both; Share in the success of an employee-owned firm where your contributions help create long-term value.
These are also benefits. We'll include them.
Now we must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. Remove that.
Now produce HTML.
