Engineer Embedded Software

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 only sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting. We have description paragraphs about company, role description, responsibilities, qualifications, etc. We need to extract: - About the role: maybe a short paragraph summarizing role? The posting includes description: "At Northrop Grumman..." then description of role. Could be "About the role" section. - Responsibilities: bullet list of duties: "Support to Production: ..." etc. We need to list each bullet. - Requirements: maybe basic qualifications? Or "Qualifications" could be basic and preferred? The instruction says use headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which to include. We have Basic Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Could combine into Requirements (basic) and Qualifications (preferred) or Skills. But we need to follow typical pattern: Requirements = basic qualifications; Qualifications = preferred qualifications; Skills = maybe specific skills like programming languages, tools. But we must not create sections with filler. If we don't have content for a heading, omit it. We have Pay: salary range given: $87,600.00 - $131,400.00. So we can include Pay section. Schedule: Not mentioned explicitly; there is "9/80 Work Schedule (where available)" under benefits. That's a schedule detail but it's in benefits. Could we create Schedule section? The posting mentions "9/80 Work Schedule (where available)" as part of benefits. It's not a explicit schedule requirement. Might be better to include under Benefits. Since we only create Schedule if posting actually states them. It does mention a work schedule option but it's under benefits. Could still create Schedule section with that detail? The instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." The posting does state "9/80 Work Schedule (where available)" as part of benefits. So we could include Schedule section with that detail. However, it's also in Benefits list. Might be duplication. Safer to include Benefits section with health plan, savings plan, PTO, education assistance, training, 9/80 work schedule, etc. And not create separate Schedule. Pay section: we have salary range. Benefits: we have list: Health Plan, Savings Plan, Paid Time Off and Additional Benefits including Education Assistance, Training and Development, 9/80 Work Schedule (where available), and much more! Also later: health insurance coverage, life and disability insurance, savings plan, Company paid holidays and paid time off (PTO) for vacation and/or personal business. So we can combine. Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /, no markdown. We'll produce something like:

We must ensure we preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Need to include all details from posting. Let's extract details. First, About the role: The description includes company overview and role description. We need to preserve all substantive information but not repeat job title. We can summarize but must not invent or summarize away detail. However we can condense but must keep all info? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." That suggests we should not omit details; we need to keep them. But we can rephrase? Probably we should keep the sentences as is, maybe split into paragraphs. Thus About the role could contain the paragraphs describing the company and role: Starting from "At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities..." through "This position will support aerial, military-grade, or space-grade Electronic Warfare Systems and Subsystems." That's a lot. We'll keep that as prose in

tags. Responsibilities: The bullet list under "What You Will Get To Do". Let's extract each bullet: - Support to Production: Review and make needed updates to software governing how test equipment operates. - Troubleshoot discrepancies in software packages. - Coordinate with Electrical Design Engineering, Software & Firmware Engineering, Production technician, Project Management, Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, and Quality organizations to meet contractual acceptance testing and environmental screening commitments. - Software design – coding & integration/validation: Investigate, design, and provide solutions to meet new or modified testing requirements. - Test procedure development/Maintenance: Generate and maintain/revise Manufacturing Acceptance testing procedures, Environmental Screening procedures, hardware drawings of test equipment and fixtures. - Continuous improvement: Review of quality metrics to identify and implement continuous improvement initiatives to reduce cost, cycle time, defects. - Testability reviews: Collaborate with design engineering to achieve testability in new and updated product design. - Ability to interface/communicate with multiple levels of leadership, clients, and vendors. - Building a strong professional relationship with other Manufacturing disciplines (Process Engineering, Project Management, Shop Operations, Mission Assurance), strong decision-making skills and a high-level ethical standard is essential. We need to keep each as

. Some are long sentences; keep them. Requirements: Basic Qualifications list: - Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science, Electrical and/or Computer Engineering or a related STEM field with a minimum of 2 years relevant experience; OR a Master of Science (MS) degree in equivalent fields with 0 or more years of experience. - Experience with hardware and calibration / testing methodology - Experience working with use of any test instruments such as (but not limited to) Performance Network Analyzer, Signal Generator, Spectrum Analyzer, Oscilloscope, etc. - Experience with programming languages such as C#, C, LabVIEW or Lab Windows CVI - Experience with troubleshooting of hardware, software, or firmware issues - Experience completing software projects involving software design / development activities and/or integration and validation activities on schedule and on budget. - Ability to obtain and maintain a Secret clearance. - US Citizenship required. We'll put each as

. Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications: - Prior hardware & software troubleshooting experience of test equipment or prime hardware. - Experience in troubleshooting unit under test. - Experience with RF Electronic systems in manufacturing or design (software, firmware, etc.) environment. - Familiarity with reading schematics and interpreting electrical one-lines. - Experience using GitHub. - Active DoD Security Clearance. We'll put each as

. Skills: Could be derived from the qualifications? But we might combine some. However we already have Requirements and Qualifications covering education, experience, clearance, citizenship. Skills could be specific technical skills: programming languages, test instruments, hardware troubleshooting, RF systems, schematics, GitHub, etc. But we risk duplication. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Maybe we can omit Skills section and include those details under Requirements/Qualifications. But we need to follow headings list; we can omit if no specific content. Since we already covered skills in Requirements and Qualifications, we could omit Skills section. Benefits: Need to capture all benefits mentioned: - Health Plan - Savings Plan - Paid Time Off - Additional Benefits including Education Assistance, Training and Development, 9/80 Work Schedule (where available), and much more! - Health insurance coverage - Life and disability insurance - Savings plan (already mentioned) - Company paid holidays - Paid time off (PTO) for vacation and/or personal business We should avoid duplication but preserve all substantive info. Could combine: Health Plan (health insurance coverage), Savings Plan, Paid Time Off (PTO for vacation/personal business, company paid holidays), Education Assistance, Training and Development, 9/80 Work Schedule (where available), Life and disability insurance, etc. We'll list each distinct benefit as

. Pay: salary range. Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, application period, etc. Remove those. Also remove lines like "RELOCATION ASSISTANCE: No relocation assistance available CLEARANCE REQUIRED FOR START: No CLEARANCE TYPE: Secret TRAVEL: Yes, 10% of the Time". That's metadata; we should fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it." So we could include a short paragraph at top maybe: "Relocation assistance: None. Clearance: Secret required. Travel: 10% of time." But we need to decide if we include that as a paragraph. It's minor metadata; we could include a short

after the heading? But we have no heading for metadata. Could just drop it. The instruction says fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. So we could include a

with that info, but not as a heading. Where to place? Possibly after About the role? Might be okay. But we need to preserve ALL substantive information; this metadata is substantive? It's about relocation assistance, clearance, travel. It's substantive. So we should include it. We'll add a

after the About the role maybe, or before Responsibilities. Let's add a

with: "Relocation assistance: None. Clearance required: Secret. Travel: 10% of time." Now we need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. We'll not. Now produce HTML. Let's craft.
