Engineering Mgr - Affinity Solutions Technology (Hybrid)

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role (position overview), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Preferred Skills? The instructions: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We have content: Position Overview (About the role). Responsibilities list. Qualifications list (Emerging or Experienced People Leader etc). Preferred Skills list (Accountability, Active Listening, etc). Pay: "The Estimated Base Pay Range For This Job Is $110,200.00 - $203,500.00 Pay may vary depending on job-related factors and individual experience, skills, knowledge, etc." That's specific pay range. So we can include Pay section. Benefits: there is a benefits paragraph describing PTO, leave programs, holidays, pension, health insurance, volunteer time, associate resource groups. That's substantive. So include Benefits section. Schedule: there is hybrid working arrangement description: "**This position will be in a hybrid working arrangement.** Securian Financial believes in hybrid work as an integral part of our culture. Associates get the benefit of working both virtually and in our offices. If you’re in a commutable distance (90 minutes), you’ll join us 3 days each week in our offices to collaborate and build relationships. Our policy allows flexibility for the reality of business and personal schedules." That's schedule info. So include Schedule section. We should not include boilerplate like EEO, legal statements, accommodation contact, drug-free workplace, privacy statement, legal statement. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include the position overview paragraph, responsibilities bullet list, qualifications bullet list, preferred skills bullet list, pay paragraph, benefits paragraph(s), schedule paragraph. We need to use

  for each section heading. Use

  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For benefits, we have a list of items: PTO program, leave programs, holidays, company-funded pension plan and 401(k), health insurance, volunteer time, associate resource groups (with sublist). We could make a
    with each benefit as
    • . For sublist of associate resource groups, we could nest
      . We need to avoid filler like "Be you. With us." That's part of benefits intro but maybe we keep as prose? The instruction: Use

      for prose. So we can have a

      for introductory sentences before list. We must not repeat the job title as heading. The job title is "Engineering Mgr." but we shouldn't add heading for it. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's construct:

      We need to ensure no duplicate content. The benefits paragraph includes "Be you. With us." which we omitted; that's okay as it's not essential? It's part of the benefits intro but we kept a similar sentence. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The phrase "Be you. With us." is a tagline; is it substantive? It's more branding but could be considered part of benefits description. However we kept a sentence that captures the idea: "As a valued member of our high-performing team, we want you to connect with your work, your relationships and your community." That's from the original text after "Be you. With us." Actually original: "Be you. With us. At Securian Financial, we understand that attracting top talent means offering more than just a job – it means providing a rewarding and fulfilling career. As a valued member of our high-performing team, we want you to connect with your work, your relationships and your community." So we kept the latter sentence but omitted the first two sentences. Are those substantive? They are somewhat boilerplate but still part of the description. However we might include them to preserve all substantive info. Let's include the full paragraph: "Be you. With us. At Securian Financial, we understand that attracting top talent means offering more than just a job – it means providing a rewarding and fulfilling career. As a valued member of our high-performing team, we want you to connect with your work, your relationships and your community." That's three sentences. We'll keep that as

      before the list. Thus benefits section:
