Engineer- Controls I (PM Shift/B Crew)
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections that have real specific content. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info.
We need to parse the job description.
First line: "Job Description First Solar reserves the right to offer you a role most applicable to your experience and skillset." That's a statement; maybe treat as "About the role" or similar.
Then "Basic Job Functions: The following is an entry level corporate controls position where a successful candidate will be required to support manufacturing operations, assist with equipment implementation/startup, development of electrical controls systems/designs, PLC/HMI programing, data collection and optimization of manufacturing processes control systems. This position directly supports a manufacturing site, the successful candidate will be assigned to AM shift is 6:00AM - 6:10PM. This results in a rotating 36/48-hour work week schedule, which includes working every other Friday, Saturday and Sunday."
So we have shift and schedule info. That could go under Schedule section.
Then "Education/Experience: Associates/Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field; or equivalent years of work experience.Minimum 1 – 5 years of manufacturing equipment controls engineering experience."
That's qualifications/requirements.
Then "Required Skills/Competencies:" long list.
Then "Essential Responsibilities: Primary Responsibilities:" list.
Then "Key Competencies:" long list (maybe part of skills? but we can treat as Skills or Competencies.)
Then "Reporting Relationships: This position will not have direct reports."
Then "Travel: 5% - 10%"
Then "Estimated Salary Range: $68,800-$98,000 Annually."
Then "US Physical Requirements:" list.
Then other stuff: "Potential candidates will meet the education and experience requirements..." etc. Also background check etc. Also EEO statement (remove). Also "Job description subject to change at any time." maybe minor metadata.
We need to produce sections: maybe About the role (intro), Responsibilities, Requirements (education/experience), Skills (required skills/competencies + key competencies?), Benefits? Not present. Pay (salary range). Schedule (shift info). Benefits not present, so omit.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc.
We need to preserve all substantive info: include shift, schedule, responsibilities list, required skills list, key competencies list, education/experience, travel, salary, physical requirements, reporting relationships (no direct reports). Also maybe "Basic Job Functions" could be part of About the role.
We need to format lists with - . For prose use
.
We need to decide sections:
- About the role: could include the first paragraph about First Solar reserves right, basic job functions description.
- Responsibilities: from "Essential Responsibilities: Primary Responsibilities:" list.
- Requirements: Education/Experience.
- Skills: Required Skills/Competencies list.
- Key Competencies maybe could be merged into Skills, but we could have a separate section "Key Competencies" if we want. However instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine Skills and Key Competencies into one Skills section? But they are distinct lists; we could keep both under Skills with subheadings? But we only allowed headings
for section headings; we could have multiple sections. But we want few sections. Could have "Skills and Competencies" as one section containing both lists.
- Pay: salary range.
- Schedule: shift and schedule.
- Benefits: none.
- Travel: maybe include under About the role or a separate section? Travel is specific; could be its own section "Travel". But we could incorporate into About the role or Schedule? Probably better as its own section "Travel". However instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Travel is a single bullet; maybe we can include under About the role or under Schedule? It's not schedule. Could be under About the role as a note.
- Physical Requirements: could be its own section "Physical Requirements". But again maybe combine into About the role? Might be better to have a section "Physical Requirements". However we want few sections; but we have many distinct categories. Let's think: The instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we should aim for maybe 5-6 sections max. We have: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills and Competencies, Pay, Schedule, Physical Requirements, Travel. That's 8 sections. Could combine some.
We could combine Pay and Schedule into a "Compensation & Schedule" section? But headings must be from list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We cannot create custom headings like "Compensation & Schedule". We must use those exact headings if we include them. So we can only use those headings. So we have to pick from that list. We cannot add "Travel" or "Physical Requirements" as headings unless we map them to existing headings? Not allowed. So we must either omit those sections or incorporate their content into allowed sections.
Thus we need to fit Travel and Physical Requirements into one of the allowed headings: maybe About the role (includes general info), Responsibilities (maybe not), Requirements (maybe not), Skills (maybe not), Benefits (no), Pay (salary), Schedule (shift). Travel could go under About the role or Schedule? Travel is not schedule. Could go under About the role as a note. Physical Requirements could go under About the role as well.
Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Pay, Schedule.
We must not include Benefits if not present.
Now we need to extract content for each.
About the role: Should include the introductory statements: "First Solar reserves the right to offer you a role most applicable to your experience and skillset." plus "Basic Job Functions: The following is an entry level corporate controls position where a successful candidate will be required to support manufacturing operations, assist with equipment implementation/startup, development of electrical controls systems/designs, PLC/HMI programing, data collection and optimization of manufacturing processes control systems. This position directly supports a manufacturing site, the successful candidate will be assigned to AM shift is 6:00AM - 6:10PM. This results in a rotating 36/48-hour work week schedule, which includes working every other Friday, Saturday and Sunday." Also maybe include Travel and Physical Requirements here.
We need to preserve all substantive info: Travel 5%-10%, Physical Requirements list, Reporting Relationships (no direct reports). Also maybe "Job description subject to change at any time." Could be minor metadata; we could drop as per instruction to drop minor metadata? It says "do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So we can include a short p for that or drop. Probably drop.
Thus About the role paragraph(s) will contain all that.
Responsibilities: list from Essential Responsibilities.
Requirements: Education/Experience.
Skills: Required Skills/Competencies list plus Key Competencies list (maybe combine). We'll need to output as
- items.
Pay: salary range.
Schedule: shift info (but we already included shift in About the role; but we need to avoid duplication. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we put shift in About the role, we must not also put it in Schedule unless we want duplication? Duplication is allowed? It says preserve ALL substantive information; duplication might be okay but better to avoid duplication. However we need to include Schedule section only if posting has real specific content for it. The posting does have schedule info (AM shift 6:00AM - 6:10PM, rotating 36/48-hour work week schedule, includes every other Friday, Saturday, Sunday). So we should have a Schedule section with that info. If we also put it in About the role, that would be duplication. But we could keep About the role more generic and put schedule details in Schedule section. However About the role currently includes shift description; we could move that to Schedule and keep About the role more about role purpose. Let's restructure.
About the role: include First Solar reserves right, basic job functions description (support manufacturing operations, assist with equipment implementation/startup, development of electrical controls systems/designs, PLC/HMI programming, data collection and optimization of manufacturing processes control systems. This position directly supports a manufacturing site.) Also maybe include travel, physical requirements, reporting relationships, etc.
Schedule: include shift details.
Thus we avoid duplication.
Now we need to decide what goes into About the role: The basic job functions paragraph (excluding shift). Also the statement about First Solar reserves right. Also travel, physical requirements, reporting relationships, maybe "Job description subject to change at any time." We'll keep as short p.
Now let's extract content.
First Solar reserves the right to offer you a role most applicable to your experience and skillset.
Basic Job Functions: The following is an entry level corporate controls position where a successful candidate will be required to support manufacturing operations, assist with equipment implementation/startup, development of electrical controls systems/designs, PLC/HMI programing, data collection and optimization of manufacturing processes control systems. This position directly supports a manufacturing site.
Now travel: "Travel: 5% - 10% Estimated Salary Range: $68,800-$98,000 Annually." Actually salary is separate; we will put salary in Pay section. Travel we can put in About the role.
Physical Requirements: list.
Reporting Relationships: "This position will not have direct reports."
Also maybe "Potential candidates will meet the education and experience requirements provided on the above job description and excel in completing the listed responsibilities for this role. All candidates receiving an offer of employment must successfully complete a background check and any other tests that may be required." This is kinda generic; could be dropped as boilerplate? It's not exactly boilerplate but maybe minor metadata. We'll drop.
EEO statement remove.
Now Responsibilities list: Let's extract bullet points from "Essential Responsibilities: Primary Responsibilities:" then list items separated by periods? The text: "Supports manufacturing facilities, including remote support of world-wide manufacturing facilities.Designs, programs, and coordinates small-scale control systems and projects.Assists with coordination of new equipment installation and implementation.Maintains and updates manufacturing process tool electrical drawings, ensuring the tracking of equipment changes is documented and drawings are kept current.Troubleshoots and problem-solves equipment controls related issues.Interfaces with multiple departments within the organization to ensure corporate controls policies/standards are understood and being adhered to.Assists senior engineers on large projects.Maintains effective communications levels and fosters team building.Ensures adherence to all safety procedures and good housekeeping standards."
We need to split into items. Each sentence seems separated by a period but no spaces after period? Actually there is no space after period before next sentence. We'll split by periods and trim.
We'll produce
- each.
Now Requirements: Education/Experience: "Associates/Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field; or equivalent years of work experience.Minimum 1 – 5 years of manufacturing equipment controls engineering experience."
We can make two
- items.
Now Skills: Required Skills/Competencies list: It's a long list of statements each ending with a period. We'll split similarly.
List:
- Understands controls engineering techniques and practices which would be required for global facilities including North America, Asian, and European countries.
- Abilities to trouble-shoot electrical/electronic control systems.
- Understands global manufacturing processes and safety requirements.
- Proficient use of Auto Desk AutoCad drafting software to create electrical schematic and panel layouts.
- Understands programming of Rockwell Automation Logix platform PLC’s, including ladder and function block diagram.
- Understands programming Rockwell
