We need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use only sections that have real specific content. We have company description: could be About the role? Actually "About the role" could be position overview. We'll include About the role (position overview). Responsibilities: essential job functions list. Requirements: list of requirements. Qualifications: maybe education etc. Skills: maybe communication etc. But we need to avoid filler. Let's extract.

We need to decide sections: About the role (position overview). Responsibilities (essential job functions). Requirements (maybe combine requirements and qualifications). Qualifications (education). Skills (communication, problem solving). Benefits, Pay, Schedule: not provided, so omit. We must not repeat job title as heading. We'll not. We'll output HTML with

for each section. We'll need
  • for lists. We'll need

    for prose. Let's craft. Section About the role: include company description + position overview? Could be two paragraphs. We'll put company description as

    , then position overview as

    . Responsibilities: list of essential job functions. Requirements: list of requirements bullet points. Qualifications: maybe education: Bachelor's degree etc. Could be separate. Skills: maybe communication, problem solving, flexibility, teamwork, accuracy, attention to detail, solution-focused work ethic, ability to work independently/collaboratively, knowledge of safety practices. But we need to ensure we don't invent. The requirements list includes many items that could be considered qualifications/skills. We'll split: Qualifications: education (Bachelor's degree, advanced degrees plus). Skills: hands-on experience, extensive experience with MIL-STD, ability to work independently/team, strong solution-focused work ethic, strong problem-solving skills, high level of accuracy, excellent communication skills, knowledge of personnel and product safety practices.

US PERSON REQUIREMENT Due to US Export control laws, must be a US Citizen, Permanent Resident or have protected status" Essential Job Functions list (as given): - Act as the main point of contact for Technical Sales for RFQ, Quoting, Deliverables, and Cycle Time requirements - Execute hands-on operations for C-SAM, X-Ray, decapsulation, cross-sectioning, SEM, EDS, microscopic inspection, and destructive physical analysis (DPA) services, including sample preparation - Manage lab resources to ensure high utilization and timely completion of work orders - Track, report, and expedite lab work orders to meet customer committed schedules - Analyze test and inspection results to provide customers with results, conclusions, and suggested follow-up actions - Act as subject matter expert for completed analysis and create presentations, reports, and data pack collateral for lab work orders - Coordinate with Quality to ensure SOPs are updated, accurate, and meet AS9100 and ISO9001 standards, and successfully pass customer and certification audits - Conduct FA lab tours and act as spokesman for Spirit’s FA capabilities - Maintain lab equipment to preventative maintenance and calibration schedules Requirements list: - 5-7 years of experience in semiconductor device analysis, failure analysis, or related field - Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, electronics engineering, or a related field - Advanced degrees or technical certifications are a plus - Hands-on experience with failure analysis, device analysis, technology tear-down, reverse engineering, DPA testing, and construction analysis of semiconductors, passive, and discrete devices - Extensive experience with MIL-STD for EEE and semiconductor components, especially DPA MIL-STD-1580 - Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative team in a dynamic work environment - Strong solution-focused work ethic with a high degree of flexibility supporting multiple projects of varying complexity and priority - Strong problem-solving skills with ability to analyze complex circuits and devices - High level of accuracy and attention to detail in analytical processes - Excellent communication skills with ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams and present technical information clearly - Knowledge of personnel and product safety practices, including ESD and FOD controls Now we need to split into sections. About the role: combine company description and position overview (maybe two

    ). Responsibilities: essential job functions list. Qualifications: education (Bachelor's degree, advanced degrees or technical certifications are a plus). Could also include US person requirement? That is a requirement but maybe part of qualifications. We'll include US person requirement in Qualifications? It's a requirement but we can put under Qualifications as a note. But we must not invent. We'll include US person requirement as a bullet under Qualifications? It's not education but a requirement. Might be better to put under Requirements. However we already have Requirements section for experience etc. Let's decide: Qualifications: education and US person requirement. Skills: hands-on experience, MIL-STD, ability to work independently/team, solution-focused work ethic, problem-solving skills, accuracy/attention to detail, communication skills, safety knowledge. But the instructions: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Could combine Qualifications and Skills into Requirements? But we need to follow headings list; we can omit sections if no content. We could have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (covering all). That would be three sections. That's acceptable. But we need to use headings exactly as given? It says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't require using all; we can omit sections lacking content. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements. That would be concise. But we must preserve all substantive information. If we put everything under Requirements, we might lose distinction but still preserve. However we might want to separate education vs experience. But it's okay as long as we preserve. Let's do About the role (company description + position overview). Responsibilities (essential job functions). Requirements (all bullet points from Requirements list). That covers everything. Check if any info missing: US person requirement is in position overview paragraph; we included that in About the role. Good. Now output HTML fragment. We'll need to wrap each section:

    About the role

    then

    ... maybe two paragraphs. We'll need to ensure we don't include any markdown fences. Let's craft. HTML:
