We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have job description content. Use headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real content. We need to parse the posting. Company description: not needed? It's part of description but we can include as "About the role"? Actually "About the role" heading could contain description of role and maybe company description? The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. So we can have About the role (maybe summarizing role). Then Responsibilities (list). Then Requirements (maybe Minimum Requirements). Then Qualifications (maybe Preferred Qualifications). Then Skills (maybe technical skills). Then Benefits (benefits description). Then Pay (compensation range). Then Schedule (hybrid, on-site days). Need to preserve all substantive info. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "ReqID: ..." etc. Also remove "About AECOM" maybe? That's company description but could be part of About the role? Probably we can include company description under About the role or maybe separate? The instruction says we can use About the role heading for section headings; we can include company description there. But we must not invent filler.

As an Equal Opportunity Employer, we believe in your potential and are here to help you achieve it. All your information will be kept confidential according to EEO guidelines. We need to remove EEO boilerplate etc. So we should strip lines about EEO, equal opportunity, confidentiality, etc. Also remove "As an Equal Opportunity Employer..." and "All your information will be kept confidential according to EEO guidelines." Also remove "At AECOM, we are committed to maintaining a secure and trustworthy recruitment process..." maybe that's not boilerplate? It's about fraudulent hiring activity; could be considered boilerplate but it's specific to recruitment process. Might keep? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The line about fraudulent hiring activity could be considered legal/scams warning; better to remove. Also "To support this commitment, all newly hired employees are required to attend an in-person Day 1 onboarding at an AECOM office location as a condition of employment." That's also procedural; maybe keep? It's not EEO. Might be okay. But we need to preserve substantive information. The fraudulent hiring activity line is not substantive about the job; it's a legal warning. Likely remove. Also "Offered rate of compensation will be based on individual education, qualifications, experience, and work location." That's substantive about pay determination; keep. Now structure sections: About the role: Could include company description and role overview. We'll combine the initial paragraphs about AECOM, the hiring event, role location, start date, etc. Responsibilities: list. Requirements: Minimum Requirements (Bachelor's degree, US Citizenship, Driver's License, MVR review). Could also include "Entry-level technical new hires are eligible to participate in AECOM's Graduate Development Program (GDP)" maybe under Requirements or Qualifications. Might put under Requirements. Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications (EIT/FE plus, software skills, technical writing, internship experience, team oriented, communication). Skills: Could list technical skills: spreadsheet, word processing, standard office software, AutoCAD, MicroStation, STAAD, MathCad, etc. But we already have those in Preferred Qualifications. Might combine Skills with Qualifications? But we need separate sections only if content exists. We could put Skills as a subsection of Qualifications? But instruction says use headings for those categories. We can create Skills section listing: Capable of using spreadsheet, word processing and standard office software; Basic knowledge of industry standard computer software (AutoCAD, MicroStation, STAAD, MathCad); Strong technical writing skills; Team oriented with strong communication skills. Benefits: list benefits. Pay: compensation range $75,000 to $85,000 yearly. Schedule: hybrid position, must work on-site minimum two days per week at listed locations. Also include note about start date Spring/Summer 2027 maybe in About the role. Now produce HTML fragment. We must not include or . Just the fragment. Let's craft:
