Full-time
We need to produce HTML fragment with headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Include only sections with real specific content. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info.
Let's parse the posting.
Overview: "The Public Drinking Water Program is seeking an enthusiastic candidate for our Senior Capacity Development Specialist." That's about the role.
Then description: "The Capacity Development Program supports the technical, managerial, and financial (TMF) capacity building for new and existing public Community (CWS) and Non Transient Non Community (NTNC) water systems through direct assistance, including grant and contract funding; outreach; and education. The Senior Capacity Development Specialist will be required to communicate the high bar necessary to meet the TMF requirements of being a new public water system and support those new public water systems through the permitting process. This includes conducting sanitary surveys (EPA-required inspections) for new public water systems and developing their subsequent operating permits. This work requires complex and impactful decision-making abilities, as well as the ability to manage political and societal expectations around public water system regulations. The Senior Capacity Development Specialist will manage grants and contracts that support capacity building initiatives for public water systems and assist the Program Manager in developing future budgets utilizing DWSRF set-asides. This position will coordinate with our funding programs in other Divisions, the DW Operations Sections to help coordinate outreach to water systems, and the DW Engineering Section for all construction permits related to upgrades to infrastructure."
That's responsibilities.
Then "This Job Could Be For You If You have excellent project management skills, as well as succinct communication both verbally and in writing, using a high degree of independent judgement and tact.You can distill complex regulatory requirements into easy-to-understand terminology for water system personnel and the general public.You appreciate teamwork and are good at coordinating project work with internal and external partners.You are motivated and driven. You volunteer for new challenges without waiting to be asked. You take ownership of your projects and tasks and want to make a difference."
That's skills/qualities.
Then "Who May Apply This position, Env Analyst VI - Public Drinking Water Program, Sr Capacity Development Specialist - Limited Service (Job Requisition #55823), is open to all State employees and external applicants. It is a Limited Service position, which is non-tenured and authorized for a specific period of time. Limited Service positions are established for specially funded projects or programs. If you would like more information about this position, please contact Megan.Young@vermont.gov. Resumes will not be accepted via e-mail. You must apply online to be considered. Please note that multiple positions in the same work location may be filled from this job posting."
That's application instructions and metadata; we should remove application instructions and job ID etc. So we drop that.
Then "Environmental Factors Duties are largely performed in an office setting; however, some field travel may be necessary for which private means of transportation must be available. Field work may involve exposure to chemicals, gases, hazardous liquid and solid waste, and construction sites during all weather conditions; and may involve traversing rough terrain and bodies of water. Some work outside of regular working hours, including attendance at public meetings, may be required. Strong differences of opinion may be encountered on a regular basis."
That's maybe part of responsibilities or work environment; could be included under Responsibilities or maybe a separate section like Working Conditions, but we only have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could incorporate environmental factors under Responsibilities (maybe as part of duties). Or we could create a separate section but not allowed. So we put under Responsibilities.
Then "Minimum Qualifications Master's degree or higher in a biological-life or physical science, engineering, a social science, data science, or an environmental or natural resources field AND two (2) or more years of experience in a natural resources field. OR Bachelor's degree in a biological-life or physical science, engineering, a social science, data science, or an environmental or natural resources field AND three (3) or more years of experience in a natural resources field. OR Six (6) years or more of experience in an engineering, environmental, social science, data science, or natural resources field."
That's Requirements/Qualifications. We have both Requirements and Qualifications headings allowed. We need to decide which to use. Usually Requirements = minimum qualifications; Qualifications = preferred? But we can put the minimum qualifications under Requirements. Could also put under Qualifications. We'll choose Requirements for the minimum qualifications. Then maybe Qualifications could be left out if no specific preferred qualifications beyond that. The posting does not list preferred qualifications beyond minimum. So we should not create a Qualifications section with filler. So we omit Qualifications.
Skills: we have the "This Job Could Be For You If..." list: excellent project management skills, succinct communication both verbally and in writing, high degree of independent judgement and tact, ability to distill complex regulatory requirements into easy-to-understand terminology, teamwork, coordinating project work with internal and external partners, motivated and driven, volunteer for new challenges, take ownership, want to make a difference. That's skills.
Benefits: The posting includes a "Total Compensation" section describing benefits: "As a State employee you are offered a great career opportunity, but it's more than a paycheck. The State's total compensation package features an outstanding set of employee benefits that are worth about 30% of your total compensation, including: 80% State paid medical premium and a dental plan at no cost for employees and their families Work/Life balance: 12 paid holidays each year and a generous leave plan State Paid Family and Medical Leave Insurance (FMLI) Two ways to save for your retirement: A State defined benefit pension plan and a deferred compensation 457(b) plan Tuition Reimbursement Flexible spending healthcare and childcare reimbursement accounts Low cost group life insurance Incentive-based Wellness Program Qualified Employer for Public Service Student Loan Forgiveness Program Want the specifics? Explore the Benefits of State Employment on our website."
That's substantive benefits. So we include Benefits section.
Pay: The posting does not mention specific salary or pay range. It mentions total compensation but not pay. No explicit pay. So we should not create Pay section.
Schedule: No mention of schedule (full-time, part-time, hours). Not present. So omit Schedule.
About the role: we have overview paragraph. Could also include the role title but we shouldn't repeat job title as heading. So About the role section will contain the overview paragraph(s). Possibly also include the mission of the program? The overview includes: "The Public Drinking Water Program is seeking an enthusiastic candidate for our Senior Capacity Development Specialist." Then description of program. That's fine.
Now we need to output HTML fragment with

Now we need to output HTML fragment with headings and - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

We need to decide what constitutes a list. For responsibilities, we have multiple sentences; could be turned into
