We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. We must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. We need to extract content: About Sandia (intro) maybe not needed as heading? The page already shows job title; we should not repeat job title as heading. We can include an introductory paragraph about Sandia? It's not a section heading; we can just put

with that content? The instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can have sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have content. Let's parse the posting: - About Sandia: description of lab, reasons we love our jobs, benefits (flexible work arrangements, vacation, medical, 401k, learning, relocation, amenities). This could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is more about the job. But we have "About Sandia" which is about the organization. Could fit under "About the role"? Might be better to treat as "About the role" includes description of team and mission. However we also have "What Your Job Will Be Like" section describing responsibilities. That's like Responsibilities. We have "Salary Range" => Pay section. We have "Qualifications We Require" and "Qualifications We Desire" => Qualifications section (maybe split into Required and Desired). Also "Also, for this posting we are seeking individuals with the following experience:" which is more qualifications/skills. We have "About Our Team" describing team mission; could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section like "About the team". Not in list but we could incorporate into About the role. We have "Benefits" mentioned in About Sandia: flexible work arrangements, generous vacation, strong medical and other benefits, competitive 401k, learning opportunities, relocation assistance, amenities. Also "These benefits vary by job classification." So we have benefits content. We have "Schedule": flexible work arrangements include 9/80 and 4/10 compressed workweeks, part-time work, telecommuting. That's schedule info. We have "Skills": maybe we can list technical skills: Java, C++, Python, Unix/Linux, distributed systems, satellite ground stations, command and control, telemetry processing, Docker, Jenkins, CI/CD, web front-end, algorithm development for near real-time systems, etc. Could be Skills section. We have "Responsibilities": the bullet list under "On any given day, you may be called upon to:" plus earlier description. We have "Requirements": maybe the qualifications we require (Bachelor's degree, ability to obtain DOE Q and SCI clearances). Could be Requirements. We have "Qualifications": maybe the desired qualifications (graduate degree, etc.) plus the additional experience list. We need to avoid duplication. Let's structure: -

About the role

: include description of Sandia lab, mission, team, what the job will be like (maybe combine with responsibilities?). But we also have separate Responsibilities section. Better: About the role could contain overview of the role and team mission. Responsibilities separate. Thus: About the role: include Sandia description, team mission, what the job will be like (the paragraph about passionate about space, etc.) maybe also the bullet list? But bullet list is responsibilities. Let's keep bullet list under Responsibilities. So About the role: include Sandia intro, team description, mission, and maybe the statement "We are looking for a talented Computer Scientist..." etc. Responsibilities: the bullet list (On any given day, you may be called upon to: ...) plus maybe the earlier sentence "As the selected candidate, you will play a crucial role..." but that's more overview. We'll keep bullet list as responsibilities. Requirements: Bachelor's degree or equivalent, ability to obtain and maintain DOE Q and SCI clearances (may require polygraph). Also US citizenship implied? Not explicitly but clearance requires US citizenship. We'll include that. Qualifications: Desired qualifications: graduate degree in CS or related field with independent research project; demonstrated software development skills, familiarity with modern practices (Agile); strong verbal/written communication; ability to work in multidisciplinary teams; passion to improve technical skills. Also the additional experience list: proficiency in OOP with Java and Python; experience with Unix/Linux; familiarity with design and integration of distributed systems across heterogeneous platforms; experience developing software for satellite ground stations or related aerospace apps; knowledge of command and control technologies, including experience building telemetry processing software and automated vehicle health management systems; familiarity with Docker, Jenkins, CI/CD; experience with web-based front-end development; experience in algorithm development for near real-time systems; active DOE Q security clearance. We could split Qualifications and Skills. But we have Skills section possible: list of technical skills (Java, C++, Python, Unix/Linux, distributed systems, satellite ground stations, command and control, telemetry processing, Docker, Jenkins, CI/CD, web front-end, algorithm development). However the qualifications already cover many. To avoid duplication, we could make Skills section for technical skills, and Qualifications for education/clearance etc. But the instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine Qualifications and Skills into one Qualifications section that includes both education and skills. However we have separate headings list includes Qualifications and Skills. We could include both if they have substantive content. Let's see: Qualifications we have education and clearance; Skills we have technical skills. Both are substantive. So we can have both sections. Thus: -

Qualifications

: Bachelor's degree or equivalent, ability to obtain/maintain DOE Q and SCI clearances (may require polygraph), US citizenship (implied). Could also mention that clearance requires US citizenship. -

Skills

: list of technical skills: proficiency in object-oriented programming with Java and Python; experience with Unix/Linux; familiarity with design and integration of distributed systems deployed across heterogeneous platforms; experience developing software for satellite ground stations or related aerospace applications; knowledge of command and control technologies, including experience building telemetry processing software and automated vehicle health management systems; familiarity with Docker, Jenkins, and CI/CD practices; experience with web-based front-end development; experience in algorithm development for near real-time systems; also maybe Java and C++ mentioned earlier for development. We also have C++ mentioned in responsibilities. Could add C++ to Skills. -

Responsibilities

: bullet list. -

About the role

: overview of Sandia, team mission, and maybe the statement about passionate about space etc. Could also include the description of what the job will be like (the paragraph before bullet list). Let's include that. -

Pay

: Salary Range $99,400 - $193,600, note that actual salary determined after consideration of experience, qualifications, geographic differential. -

Schedule

: flexible work arrangements: 9/80, 4/10 compressed workweeks, part-time work, telecommuting (mix of onsite and remote). Also note that due to nature of work, selected applicant must be able to work onsite. Actually the posting says "Due to the nature of the work, the selected applicant must be able to work onsite." That conflicts with telecommuting? But we include both: flexible work arrangements for many positions include ... but for this role must work onsite. We'll include that nuance. -

Benefits

: generous vacation, strong medical and other benefits, competitive 401k, learning opportunities, relocation assistance, amenities aimed at creating solid work/life balance. Also flexible work arrangements (already in schedule). Also note "These benefits vary by job classification." We should not include boilerplate like EEO, NNSA requirements, posting duration, security clearance details beyond what's needed for qualifications, job ID, etc. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like "Ability to obtain and maintain DOE Q and SCI clearances which may require a polygraph test." Also "Active DOE Q security clearance." Also "Graduate degree in Computer Science or a highly related field where an independent research project was a graduation requirement (e.g., independent project, thesis, or dissertation)." Also "Demonstrated software development skills and familiarity with modern software development practices and tools (e.g., Agile)." Also "Strong verbal and written communication skills, ability to work effectively in multidisciplinary teams, and a passion to improve and expand technical skills." Also the list of desired experience. We need to ensure we don't lose any of those. Let's extract each piece: Intro about Sandia: "Sandia National Laboratories is the nation’s premier science and engineering lab for national security and technology innovation, with teams of specialists focused on cutting-edge work in a broad array of areas. Some of the main reasons we love our jobs: Challenging work with amazing impact that contributes to security, peace, and freedom worldwide; Extraordinary co-workers; Some of the best tools, equipment, and research facilities in the world; Career advancement and enrichment opportunities; Flexible work arrangements for many positions include 9/80 (work 80 hours every two weeks, with every other Friday off) and 4/10 (work 4 ten-hour days each week) compressed workweeks, part-time work, and telecommuting (a mix of onsite work and working from home); Generous vacation, strong medical and other benefits, competitive 401k, learning opportunities, relocation assistance and amenities aimed at creating a solid work/life balance; World-changing technologies. Life-changing careers. Learn more about Sandia at: http://www.sandia.gov These benefits vary by job classification." We can keep that as About the role. Then "What Your Job Will Be Like": paragraph about passionate about Space, Satellites and other Remote Sensing systems; team dedicated to advancing remote sensing technologies; looking for Computer Scientist; role crucial in design, development, implementation of software systems for satellite ground stations; work collaboratively with engineers etc. That's overview. Then bullet list: "On any given day, you may be called upon to:" with items. We'll put bullet list under Responsibilities. Then Salary Range. Then Qualifications We Require: Bachelor's degree or equivalent; ability to obtain and maintain DOE Q and SCI clearances which may require a polygraph test. Qualifications We Desire: Graduate degree in CS or highly related field where independent research project was graduation requirement; Demonstrated software development skills and familiarity with modern software development practices and tools (e.g., Agile); Strong verbal and written communication skills, ability to work effectively in multidisciplinary teams, and a passion to improve and expand technical skills. Also, for this posting we are seeking individuals with the following experience: list. We'll split: Qualifications (education/clearance) and Skills (technical). But we also have desired qualifications like communication skills etc. Could go under Qualifications as well. But we already have Skills for technical. Let's put communication skills etc under Qualifications as well (makes Qualifications broader). Then Skills just technical. Thus: Qualifications: - Bachelor's degree in a relevant discipline, or equivalent combination of directly relevant education and engineering or scientific experience that demonstrates knowledge, skills, ability to perform independent R&D. - Ability to obtain and maintain DOE Q and SCI clearances which may require a polygraph test. - (Desired) Graduate degree in Computer Science or highly related field where independent research project was graduation requirement. - (Desired) Demonstr
