EngineeringFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: h3 headings for sections present: About the role? The posting includes a description paragraph after "Job Description:" maybe treat as About the role. Responsibilities list. Education & Citizenship Requirements maybe as Requirements or Qualifications. Skills list. Benefits? Not given except "We hire experts and have superb benefits." but no specifics, so we should not create Benefits section because no specific benefits listed. Pay? Not specific, only "competitive salary/benefits package. Salary commensurate with experience and education." That's vague, not specific, so we should not create Pay section. Schedule? It says "Schedule: Full Time". That's a schedule detail. Should we create Schedule section? The rule: include a section ONLY when 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. Here schedule is stated: Full Time. That's specific enough? It's not vague like "varies". It's a concrete schedule. So we can include Schedule section with that info. Location also given but not a heading; we can fold into a short p. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, application instructions (Apply Online button). Also remove duplicated lines. We need to preserve all substantive information.

We also have location: Huntsville, AL (Redstone Arsenal, AL) / On-Site Schedule: Full Time We need to output sections: maybe About the role (the initial paragraph), Responsibilities, Requirements (or Qualifications), Skills, Schedule (maybe also Location within a p). We should not create Benefits because not specific. Pay not specific. We need to decide headings: About the role (maybe "About the role") for the initial descriptive paragraph. Responsibilities (h3). Requirements (maybe "Requirements" covering Education & Citizenship and Additional Requirements). Skills (h3) covering Required Skills and Desired Skills? Could separate Required and Desired but we can combine under Skills. Or we could have "Required Skills" and "Desired Skills" as subheadings but only h3 allowed for section headings; we could still use h3 for each but that may be many thin sections. Better to combine into one Skills section with two sublists: Required Skills and Desired Skills maybe using or just separate
    with headings inside? But we must follow rules: use

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

      for prose. It doesn't forbid using inside

    • . So we can have a Skills section with two lists: Required Skills and Desired Skills each preceded by a

      or . That's okay. We also need to include Schedule section with Full Time. Location maybe in a

      after schedule or within same p. We must not include application instructions like "Apply Online" button. We must not include EEO etc. Let's craft HTML. Structure:

      About the role

      Requirements

      Education & Citizenship Requirements: ...

      Additional Requirements: ...

      maybe combine into one

      with sentences. But we might want to list requirements as list? The rule: use

      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Requirements could be considered a list. However the education requirements are not a simple list but sentences. Could still be

        . It's okay. Better to have

        Requirements

        then

        containing education & citizenship and additional requirements.

        Skills

        Required Skills:
