Export Controls & Trade Compliance Manager

We need to output only HTML fragment, using

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes location, clearance requirement, about NODA, the role description, key responsibilities, required qualifications, preferred qualifications, skills & attributes, benefits & perks, growth path, export control compliance statement, equal opportunity statement (but we remove EEO boilerplate). Also location and clearance requirement are metadata; we can fold into a short

maybe under a heading? The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. So location and clearance requirement can be a short paragraph maybe before sections? Probably we can include a

with location and clearance. Then sections: About the role (the paragraph about role), Responsibilities (key responsibilities), Requirements (maybe required qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe preferred qualifications?), Skills (skills & attributes), Benefits (benefits & perks), Pay (not specified, so we should NOT include Pay section), Schedule (not specified, so omit). Also we might include About NODA? Could be part of About the role? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should follow those headings exactly. So we need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits. Possibly also include a short intro paragraph for location/clearance before any heading. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include the details from the posting under each section. Let's extract: Location: Austin, TX or Washington, D.C. (Hybrid on-site, with up to 5% travel) Clearance Requirement: U.S. Citizen with the ability to obtain a security clearance About NODA: description. The Role: description. Key Responsibilities: bullet list (we need to convert to

• ). Required Qualifications: list. Preferred Qualifications: list. Skills & Attributes: list. Benefits & Perks: list. Growth Path: maybe could be part of Benefits? But not in headings list; we could omit or maybe include under Benefits? The instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Growth Path is specific content; but not in allowed headings list. Could we include it under Benefits? Probably not; better to omit if not matching allowed headings. However we must preserve all substantive information; we cannot drop it. But we could incorporate it into Benefits section as extra detail? The instruction: Use headings only from the list; we can still include other content under those headings. So we can put Growth Path under Benefits or maybe under Qualifications? Better to put under Benefits as additional info. But we need to be careful not to misrepresent. Could add a subsection? Not allowed to add new headings. So we can just include a paragraph under Benefits heading that includes growth path details. Export Control Compliance statement: that's legal boilerplate; we should remove as per instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. That includes export control compliance statement? It's legal; likely remove. Equal Opportunity Statement: remove. Thus we will produce:

  Location: Austin, TX or Washington, D.C. (Hybrid on-site, with up to 5% travel). Clearance Requirement: U.S. Citizen with the ability to obtain a security clearance.

  Then sections:

  About the role

  We are seeking an Export Controls & Trade Compliance Manager to serve as the day-to-day operational owner for NODA AI's export controls and trade compliance activities. You will be responsible for the mechanics that keep our program running: import and export compliance, restricted party screening, licensing administration, jurisdiction and classification, government submissions, training, foreign person and visitor controls, audits, and recordkeeping. You will work closely with outside export compliance counsel on matters requiring specialized legal or regulatory interpretation and translate that guidance into practical action. You will also partner across Engineering, Business Development, Contracts, the Information System Security Manager (ISSM), Facility Security Officer (FSO), People Operations, and Finance to embed trade compliance into how NODA AI operates rather than treating it as an after-the-fact review. This role is for someone comfortable operating at the intersection of technology, national security, regulation, and execution. You can move quickly without sacrificing rigor, understand enough about complex technical products to ask the right questions, and bring structure to an environment where requirements and priorities evolve quickly. You know when to independently execute established processes and when a question requires escalation to outside counsel. Most importantly, you are an operator who keeps licenses moving, records audit-ready, employees trained, controlled information protected, and compliance requirements from becoming barriers to execution.

  But note: The "About NODA" description also is substantive; maybe we should include that under About the role? The heading "About the role" maybe should include both about NODA and the role? The instruction: use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities...). So we can put the description of NODA and the role under About the role. However the posting has separate "About NODA" and "The Role". We could combine them. Alternatively we could have a separate section "About NODA" but not in allowed headings; we could fold into About the role. Thus About the role paragraph will include NODA description and role description. Now Responsibilities: we need to list each responsibility as

  . The responsibilities list is long; we need to capture all bullet points.
