Engineer Senior - Engineer Principal
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (Job Summary), Responsibilities (What You’ll Do), Requirements (What We’re Looking For), Pay, Benefits.
We could combine Responsibilities and Requirements as separate sections.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
Let's craft:
About the role

But note that the responsibilities also include Engineer Principal specifics. The above only covered Engineer Senior? Actually the "What You’ll Do" section includes both Engineer Senior and Engineer Principal? The posting shows two sections: Engineer Senior What You’ll Do: Essential Job Functions & Tasks ... then Engineer Principal What You’ll Do: Essential Job Functions & Tasks ... So we need to include both sets. Could combine them under Responsibilities with separate subheadings? But we only allowed h3 for section headings; we could have h3 for Responsibilities and then inside we could have ? Not allowed? The instruction only says use h3 for section headings; doesn't forbid other headings but better to stick to h3 for major sections. We could embed details in paragraphs.
Simplify: Keep responsibilities as a combined list covering both Senior and Principal; we can note that responsibilities apply to both levels, with additional expectations for Principal. Could add a note.
But we must preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot omit details specific to Principal. So we need to include both sets.
We could create two responsibility sections: one for Engineer Senior, one for Engineer Principal, each with its own h3? But the instruction says use h3 for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid multiple h3 sections with same heading? Probably better to have one Responsibilities section and include both sets within.
We can include bullet points that capture both sets; but we risk losing nuance. However we can embed paragraphs describing both.
Alternative: Have two h3 sections: "Engineer Senior – Responsibilities" and "Engineer Principal – Responsibilities". But those are not in the prescribed list; but instruction says use h3 for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't say we cannot use other headings, but to follow the pattern we should use those headings. Safer to stick to those.
Thus we will include all details under Responsibilities, maybe separate paragraphs for Senior and Principal.
We'll include paragraphs:
Engineer Senior – Essential Job Functions & Tasks: ...
then Engineer Principal – Essential Job Functions & Tasks: ...
Then we can still have bullet lists for each? Could do bullet lists inside paragraphs? Better to use for each.
We'll do:
Responsibilities
Engineer Senior – Essential Job Functions & Tasks:
- Technical Expertise: ...
...
Engineer Principal – Essential Job Functions & Tasks:
- Technical Expertise: ...
...
That respects using h3 for section heading, and using ul for lists.
Now Requirements: "What We’re Looking For: Minimum Requirements" includes details for Senior and Principal. We'll similarly split.
We'll have:
Requirements
Engineer Senior – Minimum Requirements:
- Has typically acquired four (4) or more years of related engineering experience along with a Bachelor's degree in engineering in a program accredited by ABET* OR Two (2) years of related engineering experience along with a Master's degree or PhD in engineering from a program accredited by ABET*
- Registration as a Professional Engineer (PE) in any U.S. state or Puerto Rico** is encouraged and preferred.
- ABET - Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology.
- Individuals with a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering Technology can satisfy this degree requirement, if they obtain a certified Professional Engineering (PE) license.
- Acceptable alternative is: A Bachelor’s degree in engineering (non-ABET) plus a Master's degree or PhD in engineering from a university with an ABET accredited Bachelor's program.
- Confirmation is required to ensure the PE obtained in Puerto Rico aligns with NCEES standards.
- VP or above may waive the requirement for a degree from a university with a Non ABET accredited program
Engineer Principal – Minimum Requirements:
- Has typically acquired eight (8) or more years of related engineering experience along with a Bachelor's degree in engineering in a program accredited by ABET* OR Six (6) years of related engineering experience along with a Master's degree or PhD in engineering from a program accredited by ABET*
- Registration as a Professional Engineer (PE) in any U.S. state or Puerto Rico** is preferred for this position unless approval to waive this requirement is given by the organization's EVP.

- ** Confirmation is required to ensure the PE obtained in Puerto Rico aligns with NCEES standards.
- VP or above may waive the requirement for a degree from a university with a Non ABET accredited program
Now Pay and Benefits:
We have Pay info: "Standard base pay is: Engineer Senior - $98,993 - $128,689 /year. Engineer Principal - $116,255 - $151,132 /year."
We also have compensation grade and range: "Compensation Grade: SP20-008 Compensation Range: $98,993.00 - $151,132.50". That's overall range.
We should include Pay section with that info.
Benefits: "In addition to competitive compensation, AEP offers a unique comprehensive benefits package that aims to support and enhance the overall well-being of our employees." Also there is a paragraph about mission etc. That's more about company culture; could be included in Benefits or maybe a separate "About the company" but not required. We'll put Benefits section with that statement.
We should not include fluff like "Where Putting the Customer First Powers Everything We Do..." That's boilerplate? It's about mission; could be considered substantive? It's not a benefit but could be considered company overview. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The mission statement might be
for prose. We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (Job Summary), Responsibilities (What You’ll Do), Requirements (What We’re Looking For), Pay, Benefits. We could combine Responsibilities and Requirements as separate sections. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's craft:
