Requirements: Education and Experience. The posting: "Required Qualifications Education: A Bachelor’s degree with 5 years of experience or a High School Diploma with 9 years of experience.

We need to preserve all. Could format as
- each bullet? But it's a paragraph with sentences. Better to keep as
for prose? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. The requirements are a list of items; we could split into list items. However the original is not explicitly bullet list but we can treat each sentence as a requirement. It's acceptable to make a list. We'll output
- for each distinct requirement.
Let's split:
- A Bachelor’s degree with 5 years of experience or a High School Diploma with 9 years of experience.
- 5 years of hands-on experience in the implementation and administration of complex, multi-location, multi-vendor, converged voice/data networks in a geographically distributed environment.
- In-depth hands-on experience with F5 Load Balancers in real-world complex environments.
- Experience administering Cisco routers & switches including but not limited to Nexus 9xxx, Catalyst 9000, Cisco ONS, Cisco ACI and DNA Center; Juniper MX routers and EX switches; and Infoblox DDI appliances.
- Experience working in a Data Center.
- Experience managing networks, internal and external DNS, and the associated IP infrastructure.
- Experience administering and configuring monitoring tools for proactive alerting and trends analysis.
- Experience working with support ticketing systems, managing assigned tickets, and providing appropriate follow-up.
- Experience with creating and maintaining documentation and using Data Center inventory management tools.
That seems comprehensive.

- . Since it's a list? It's a single item. Use
maybe. But instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. This is not a list, it's a statement. So
. Benefits: The benefits overview paragraph. Need to preserve all substantive information. It's a long paragraph describing benefits. We'll put as
under Benefits heading. We must exclude boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we need to strip the EEO paragraphs, the virtual recruiter note, the privacy policy, the equal opportunity repeated, the accommodation contact, the transparency in coverage, the copyright, the address, etc. Also remove the "Job#: 3053369 Job Description: If interested, please send most updated resume to [email protected]" line (application instruction). Also remove "F5 Network Engineer Location: Remote" maybe not needed as heading? It's location info; could be part of About the role? But we already have About the role paragraph; we could incorporate location? The instruction: do not repeat job title as heading; we can include location in About the role paragraph? The posting includes "Location: Remote". That's substantive. We should preserve it. Where to put? Could add to About the role paragraph after Role Overview. Or we could make a separate section? Not needed. We'll add a sentence: "Location: Remote." within About the role
. Also "Role Overview Our organization is seeking an F5 Engineer to join our team." That's part of Role Overview. We'll keep. Now craft HTML. Structure:
