Engineering Technician
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include sections only if posting has real specific content. We have content: "Who We Are" (company overview) could be considered "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is typical heading for role description. But we have "This Role" heading. We could map that to "About the role". Also "What You Will Do" is responsibilities. "How You Will Do It" maybe also responsibilities but could be merged. "What We’re Looking For" is requirements/qualifications. "What We Offer" is benefits. No explicit Pay or Schedule. So we should not create Pay or Schedule sections.
We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is Engineering Technician; we should not put that as heading.
We need to preserve all substantive information, remove boilerplate: EEOC statement, maybe also "EEOC Statement" etc. Also remove navigation, legal, etc. The "EEOC Statement" is boilerplate; remove.
We need to format using for each section heading, - for lists,
for prose.
We need to decide sections: About the role (company overview + role description?), Responsibilities (What You Will Do + How You Will Do It?), Requirements (What We’re Looking For), Benefits (What We Offer). Possibly also Qualifications separate? But we can combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section if content overlaps. The instruction says we can have sections like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits etc. We can choose to have Requirements (includes education/experience) and Skills (technical skills). But we have both education/experience and specific skills (CREO, AutoCAD, measuring tools, etc). Could split into Requirements (education/experience) and Skills (technical). However we must not create thin sections; prefer few substantive sections. Could combine into one "Requirements" covering both education/experience and skills. That seems fine.
Thus sections: About the role (company overview + role description?), Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits.
Check content: "Who We Are" is company overview. "This Role" includes description of role (full-time hourly in-person at Innovation Center). Could be part of About the role. We'll combine.
Responsibilities: "What You Will Do" and "How You Will Do It" both list duties; we can combine into one responsibilities section with bullet list.
Requirements: "What We’re Looking For" includes education/experience, skills, etc.
Benefits: "What We Offer" list.
We must not include headings with filler text. Ensure we don't include empty sections.
Now produce HTML:

We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract.
Who We Are:
"The DuraVent Group is a recognized global technology leader in the HVAC industry, first-to-market with innovations in venting systems. Founded in 1956, our $500 million+ company is headquartered in Detroit, Michigan, and has 15 locations across Canada, Mexico, and the United States. DuraVent leads with best-in-class design and manufacturing capabilities, world-class distribution networks, and customer-first service and support. We ensure quality and drive safety through scientifically proven materials and unequaled engineering. DuraVent acquired Grand Rapids-based Hart & Cooley in 2021.

As a combined company, DuraVent is positioned to help shape the next generation of interior climate technology. Our team of passionate professionals needs you. Come join us and help us build for the future!"
This Role:
"Our team is currently seeking an Engineering Technician. This will be a full-time hourly in-person role at our Innovation Center located in Grand Rapids, MI."
Combine.
Now Responsibilities: list from "What You Will Do" and "How You Will Do It". Let's extract bullet points.
What You Will Do:
- Develop and document test procedures
- Execute product and system testing in the lab
- Help build future test plans that support engineering priorities
- Prepare samples
- Set up equipment
- Collect and organize test data
- Troubleshoot test issues
- Write clear technical reports that summarize results, observations, and next steps
- Work closely with the North American Engineering team to improve test capability, support product development, validate performance, and help ensure testing is completed accurately, safely, and on schedule.
How You Will Do It:
- Develop, document, and follow test procedures for product performance, airflow, pressure loss, and installation-related evaluations.
- Set up and execute lab tests to measure airflow performance, including CFM, pressure drop, flow restriction, throw/spread, and other system performance characteristics.
- Test and evaluate HVAC components, venting products, air distribution products, and high-efficiency appliance applications in a controlled lab environment.
- Collect, organize, and analyze test data to identify performance trends, flow restrictions, product limitations, and opportunities for improvement and prepare test reports that summarize procedures, results, observations, conclusions, and recommended next steps.
- Partner with engineers to build future test plans that support new product development, sustaining engineering, product changes, and performance validation.
- Assist with prototype builds, sample preparation, fixture setup, instrumentation, and test equipment configuration.
- Identify issues during testing and work with engineers to troubleshoot root causes related to airflow, pressure loss, appliance operation, installation conditions, or product design.
- Help evaluate how product geometry, installation configuration, appliance conditions, and system restrictions impact performance.
- Operate, maintain, and help improve lab equipment, test fixtures, airflow benches, instrumentation, and data collection tools.
- Recommend improvements to test methods, lab processes, fixtures, and documentation to improve accuracy, repeatability, and efficiency.
We need to avoid duplication; some items overlap (develop test procedures etc). We'll combine unique items.
Let's create a consolidated list:
- Develop and document test procedures for product performance, airflow, pressure loss, and installation-related evaluations; follow them.
- Set up and execute lab tests to measure airflow performance (CFM, pressure drop, flow restriction, throw/spread, etc.).
- Test and evaluate HVAC components, venting products, air distribution products, and high-efficiency appliance applications in a controlled lab environment.
- Prepare samples, set up equipment, collect and organize test data.
- Troubleshoot test issues and work with engineers to identify root causes related to airflow, pressure loss, appliance operation, installation conditions, or product design.
- Write clear technical reports summarizing procedures, results, observations, conclusions, and recommended next steps.
- Partner with engineers to build future test plans supporting new product development, sustaining engineering, product changes, and performance validation.
- Assist with prototype builds, sample preparation, fixture setup, instrumentation, and test equipment configuration.
- Help evaluate how product geometry, installation configuration, appliance conditions, and system restrictions impact performance.
- Operate, maintain, and help improve lab equipment, test fixtures, airflow benches, instrumentation, and data collection tools.
- Recommend improvements to test methods, lab processes, fixtures, and documentation to improve accuracy, repeatability, and efficiency.
- Work closely with the North American Engineering team to improve test capability, support product development, validate performance, and ensure testing is completed accurately, safely, and on schedule.
That seems comprehensive.
Now Requirements: from "What We’re Looking For".
Extract:
- Associate’s degree in engineering technology or related field and/or a combination of education and experience within the related field with a minimum of 2 years of experience.
- Experience with CREO and AutoCAD (CAD) or other systems.
- Ability to use precision measuring tools and assembly equipment.
- Understanding and practical application of operational shop math.
- Microsoft Office Tools such as Outlook, Excel, PowerPoint, Word.
- Machine Shop experience and experience in the HVAC industry and with sheet metal products preferred.
- Test Lab experience a plus.
- Authorization for employment in the U.S. without requiring visa sponsorship now or in the future.
We should keep as bullet list.
Now Benefits: from "What We Offer".
List:
- Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance
- 401(k) with match
- Paid Holidays
- Paid Vacation
- Paid Personal Time Off
- Long Term Disability Insurance
