That's about the role.
Then "Position Responsibilities:" list bullet points.
Then "Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience):" list.
Then "Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience):" list.
Then "Drug Free Workplace: ..." (boilerplate? Might be considered policy but not required? It's not EEO but still policy. Might be considered boilerplate? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. Drug Free Workplace is legal/policy; maybe we should remove? It's not EEO but still legal. Safer to remove? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. So legal boilerplate includes Drug Free Workplace. So remove.
"Conflict of Interest: Successful candidate for this job must satisfy the Company’s Conflict of Interest (COI) assessment process." Also legal; remove.
"Pay & Benefits: ..." includes description of benefits and pay range. We need to include Pay and Benefits sections if they have specific content. There's a pay range: $71,400 - $96,600. Also description of benefits: health insurance, flexible spending accounts, health savings accounts, retirement savings plans, life and disability insurance programs, paid/unpaid time away. That's specific enough. So we can have a Benefits section (maybe combine with Pay? The instruction says use headings for Benefits, Pay, Schedule separately if content exists. We have Pay info (range) and Benefits info. So we can have
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title.

"Applications for this position will be accepted until Sept. 26, 2026" - that's application instruction; remove.
"Export Control Requirements: ..." legal; remove.
"Education Bachelor's Degree or Equivalent Required" - that's part of qualifications; we already have.
"Relocation This position offers relocation based on candidate eligibility." That's a benefit? Could be part of Benefits or maybe a separate section? Not listed as a heading but we could include under Benefits as relocation assistance. But we already have Benefits; we can add relocation as a bullet.
"Security Clearance This position requires the ability to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance for which the U.S. Government requires U.S. Citizenship. An interim and/or final U.S. Secret Clearance Post-Start is required. This position requires ability to obtain program access, for which the U.S. Government requires U.S. Citizenship only." That's a requirement; could be under Requirements or Qualifications. We'll include under Requirements (maybe as a bullet). But we already have Basic Qualifications includes US Citizenship requirement for clearance. We'll keep.
"Visa Sponsorship Employer will not sponsor applicants for employment visa status." That's also a requirement; remove? It's policy/legal; maybe remove as boilerplate? It's not EEO but still legal. Safer to remove? The instruction says remove legal boilerplate. Visa sponsorship is legal; remove.
"Shift This position is for 1st shift" - that's schedule info; we can include Schedule section.
"Equal Opportunity Employer: ..." remove.
Now we need to structure.
Sections:
- About the role (maybe heading About the role). Use About the role
then paragraphs.
- Responsibilities: Responsibilities
then - ... each bullet.
- Requirements: maybe combine Basic Qualifications and Security Clearance etc. Use
Requirements
then list.
- Qualifications: maybe Preferred Qualifications? Could be Qualifications
for preferred? But we already have Requirements for basic. Could also have Qualifications
for preferred. The instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can have both Requirements and Qualifications. We'll put basic qualifications under Requirements, and preferred qualifications under Qualifications.
- Skills: maybe we can extract skills from responsibilities? But we have specific skills like 3D solid modeling, NX, etc. Those are in qualifications. Could put under Skills heading. But we already have Qualifications. Might be redundant. However we need to follow instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Skills into Qualifications or Requirements. But we have headings list; we can omit Skills if not substantive distinct. Let's see: we have specific skills: Experience with 3D solid modeling software applications (e.g. NX, Catia, CADD), Proficiency in Siemens NX, Experience with machine shop fabrication capabilities, Knowledge/familiarity with additive manufacturing processes & tools, Understanding of structural dynamics, fluid flow, and thermodynamics theory & application. Those could go under Skills. But we also have qualifications like degree, years of experience. Might be better to have Requirements (basic) and Qualifications (preferred) and Skills (technical skills). However to avoid many thin sections, we could merge Skills into Qualifications. But the instruction says use headings for sections like ... Skills. It doesn't require to use all; only include when posting has real specific content. We have specific skills content, so we could include Skills section. But then we would have Requirements, Qualifications, Skills - three sections. That's okay if each has substantive content.
Let's decide:
- Requirements: Basic Qualifications (degree, US Citizenship, ability to obtain clearance, experience with 3D solid modeling, mechanical systems design). Actually the basic qualifications list includes: Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering (with focus on Mechanical, Civil, Aerospace Aeronautical or Material Sciences); ability to obtain US Security Clearance (US Citizenship); final US Secret Clearance Post-Start required; Experience with 3D solid modeling software applications (e.g. NX, Catia, CADD); Experience in mechanical systems design.
- Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications (Bachelor's degree or higher in Mechanical Engineering; 1+ years experience in mechanical system or fixture design; 1+ years experience in test and evaluation; 1+ years experience in stress analysis/structural analysis; Proficiency in Siemens NX; Experience with machine shop fabrication capabilities including conventional & CNC machining, EDM, mill/lathe, fit/finish tools & processes, and QA inspection; Knowledge/familiarity with additive manufacturing processes & tools; Understanding of structural dynamics, fluid flow, and thermodynamics theory & application; Active U.S. Security Clearance in the past 24 months).
- Skills: Could be overlapping with Qualifications. Maybe better to not have Skills separate. Let's combine Preferred Qualifications into Qualifications and drop Skills.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Check if we have Schedule content: "Shift This position is for 1st shift". That's specific. So Schedule section with that.
Benefits: we have description of benefits plus relocation. We'll list.
Pay: we have pay range.
Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Drug Free Workplace", "Conflict of Interest", "Export Control", "Visa Sponsorship", "EEO". Remove.
Also remove duplicated lines: there may be duplicated sentences about security clearance etc. We'll keep only one.
Now produce HTML.
We'll need to wrap content in appropriate tags.
