We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (or Qualifications), Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. From posting: - About The Role: description paragraph(s). We'll put under

About the role

with

content. - Responsibilities: list of duties. Use

  • . - Requirements: The "You May Be a Good Fit If You Have" bullet list (requirements). Also "It's a Bonus If You Have" maybe separate? Could be Skills? We'll treat as Requirements (must-have) and maybe Skills (bonus). But we need to decide sections: Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have Pay: "Annual Salary $320,000—$405,000 USD". So include Pay section. Schedule: "Location-based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time." That's schedule info. So include Schedule. Benefits: Not explicitly listed. There's mention of visa sponsorship, etc. That's more logistics. Could be considered Benefits? The posting includes visa sponsorship, etc. Might treat as Benefits? But guidelines: only include if posting actually states them. There's visa sponsorship, etc. Could be considered Benefits. However they also have "Logistics" section with minimum education, required field of study, minimum years of experience, location-based hybrid policy, visa sponsorship. That's more like Requirements/Qualifications. Benefits not clearly stated. So we may omit Benefits. We need to include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (must-have), Skills (bonus), Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent. We need to strip boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. The posting includes many paragraphs about mission, about Anthropic, etc. We need to keep substantive info: About Anthropic mission maybe not needed? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." But we also need to remove boilerplate like mission? The mission statement is part of About Anthropic, maybe considered substantive? However the instruction about sections: use headings for About the role, Responsibilities, etc. The About Anthropic mission could be placed under About the role? Actually there is "About Anthropic" then "About The Role". The mission is about the company, not the role. Should we include it? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information. So we should include the About Anthropic mission somewhere. But we have no heading for company overview; we could include it as a

    before the role heading? The instruction says do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. It doesn't forbid adding a paragraph before sections. So we can include a

    with the Anthropic mission and team description. Thus output:

    Anthropic’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our users and for society as a whole. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems.

    Then

    About the role

    with paragraph(s) from "About The Role". We'll combine the paragraph(s) into one

    maybe multiple sentences. Then Responsibilities

    Responsibilities

    with
    • each bullet. Then Requirements

      Requirements

      with
      • for the "You May Be a Good Fit If You Have" list (the must-have). We'll include all bullet points there. Then Skills

        Skills

        with
        • for the "It's a Bonus If You Have" list. Then Pay

          Pay

          with

          Annual Salary $320,000—$405,000 USD

          Then Schedule

          Schedule

          with

          Location-based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time.

          We might also include visa sponsorship etc under Benefits? But we omitted Benefits. Could we add a Benefits section for visa sponsorship? The posting includes visa sponsorship, etc. That's more like logistics/benefits. But guidelines: only include if posting actually states them. It does state visa sponsorship. However they also have "Logistics" with minimum education etc. That's not benefits. Visa sponsorship could be considered a benefit. But we already have Schedule and Pay. Adding Benefits may be okay. However we need to avoid thin sections. Visa sponsorship is a single line; maybe we can fold into Schedule or Pay? Better to add a Benefits section with that line. But we already have Schedule; we could add Benefits with visa sponsorship and maybe note about immigration lawyer. Let's include Benefits

          Benefits

          with

          Visa sponsorship: we sponsor visas and retain an immigration lawyer to assist.

          We must not invent details; that's accurate. Now ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now produce HTML fragment. Let's craft the About the role paragraph: combine the two paragraphs after "About The Role". The text: "We are hiring an Energy Scheduling & Portfolio Lead to own energy availability across Anthropic's non-cloud data center portfolio: contracted and available energy against planned compute, and the risk to it. This one central scheduling and portfolio role holds the live view of energy availability risk and energy availability need for workload management. You will be our counterpart to the LSEs, QSEs, scheduling coordinators, and suppliers in electricity and gas markets across jurisdictions; forecasting is an instrument of that view. You schedule and manage physical energy delivery — not financial instruments — including how much gas the portfolio needs to schedule, and keep energy supply and the workload plan in step with workload and site planning, energy origination, and data center operations. ESA counterparties operate the behind-the-meter plants; you manage their performance and our exposure. This role will also build processes and structures to ultimately support asset management across our energy portfolio. You are this function's first dedicated owner and will build its models and processes from zero." We'll put that in a

          . Now Responsibilities list: need to extract each bullet from the responsibilities section. The responsibilities paragraph is long with many sentences separated by semicolons. We need to turn each distinct duty into

        • . Let's parse: - Own the live view of energy availability risk and need: contracted, available, and committed energy and capacity at each site against planned load and ramp, by month and by hour where it matters; keep it current as deals sign, sites come online, and plans change, and close gaps and use surpluses with workload and site planning and energy origination. - Be the operational counterpart to our LSEs, QSEs, scheduling coordinators, and retail and wholesale suppliers in domestic ISO/RTOs, including ERCOT, and international power markets, and manage our participation in utility and ISO market programs. - Predict and track curtailment (utility, ISO, fuel, equipment, and contract-driven) for each site, and navigate shortage pricing and reliability events: ISO scarcity pricing, emergency procedures, conservation calls, and the notification and performance obligations under each ESA, PPA, utility agreement, and market program; coordinate the load response with site operations and workload planning, and track performance, compensation, and cost. - Oversee the portfolio's contracted or tariff-based load-flexibility capability and the contribution of this capability to Anthropic's ratepayer-protection commitment: curtailment and demand-response participation, flexible-interconnection and non-firm service commitments to utilities and ISOs, and the site-level playbooks for each; work with workload planning on what the compute can actually flex, and commit only where the workload plan supports it. - For the first operating sites, manage counterparty performance and Anthropic's exposure under the ESAs: outage notices, availability guarantees, liquidated damages, dispatch coordination, and the reporting behind them. - Know the ESAs and utility load agreements we sign well enough to operate their scheduling, curtailment, availability, flexibility, and ratepayer-protection terms, and partner with legal and energy origination so new agreements are operable. - Determine how much gas the portfolio needs to schedule and build the portfolio's gas scheduling strategy for gas-fired behind-the-meter supply, nominations, hub and index pricing, pipeline capacity and constraints, and work through gas-plant outages and their effect on site availability, including by building relationships with external commodity partners. - Build Anthropic's energy forecasting as an instrument of the availability-risk view: consumption per site from the workload plan, site design, and ramp, and cost against ESA and PPA terms, market and natural gas prices, as the monthly and annual outputs the team and Finance need, including exposure to index-priced volume and the inputs energy origination needs to size new supply. - Supply the energy-side inputs and checks that let Finance, Accounting, and Procurement Ops reconcile invoices and settlements against ESA, PPA, and tariff terms and explain the variance; this role will collaborate heavily with energy finance but will not have primary responsibility for financial management of the energy portfolio — the physical position is yours. - Track the market information that moves our position — ISO/RTO prices, scarcity and reliability conditions, gas hub prices, ancillary and capacity costs, and tariff, interconnection, and market rule changes — and reflect it in the view. - Work cross-functionally: with energy finance on the financial management of the portfolio, with data center operations on site load, flexibility, and outages, and with other internal teams — workload and site planning, engineering and design, legal, procurement — so the energy position and the physical reality of each site stay aligned. - Build and own the processes, data, and tooling for all of the above; partner with engineering and site operations on metering, telemetry, and load data so the availability view, forecasts, and settlements rest on measured consumption. That's many items. We'll keep them as list items. Now Requirements (must-have) list from "You May Be a Good Fit If You Have". Bullets: - 8+ years in energy markets, power scheduling, energy procurement, or utility / retail energy operations, including hands-on work with scheduling and settlement review in ERCOT, PJM, NYISO, MISO, or another ISO/RTO market. - Have worked at or directly with an LSE, QSE, scheduling coordinator, retail energy provider, or load-management desk, and know day-ahead and real-time scheduling, settlements, and curtailment / demand-response programs from the inside. - Read ESAs, PPAs, and utility large-load interconnection and service agreements fluently enough to operate their scheduling, availability, curtailment, and pricing terms and to model the exposure they create. - Can predict curtailment for a large load and navigate shortage pricing and reliability events — ISO scarcity pricing, emergency procedures, conservation calls — from experience, not from the rulebook. - Understand gas scheduling — nominations, hub pricing, pipeline constraints — and have worked through gas-fired plant outages and their effect on served load. - Have designed or operated load flexibility for a large load — curtailment, demand response, non-firm or flexible interconnection — and understand the large-load tariff provisions that protect other ratepayers (minimum demand charges, cost allocation, exit and stranded-cost provisions, study and collateral requirements) and how a load operates within them. - Have built or run energy consumption and cost forecasts for large loads — data centers, industrials, or a retail / wholesale portfolio — and can tie a forecast to contract terms and market prices. - Coordinate well across teams that do not report to you — workload planning, site operations, finance, legal, origination — and can give a clear picture of where energy availability stands against
