for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting.
Let's extract content.
First, about the role: The description includes:

No matter where you're located—on campus or online—you are part of a mission that transforms lives and makes a difference across the state of Texas and beyond."
Also there is immigration info but that's boilerplate? It's about immigration, maybe we should remove as it's not substantive to role? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Immigration info might be considered legal? It's about H-1B fee and moratorium. Likely considered legal boilerplate; we should remove it. So we exclude that.

Now we need to decide sections.

- Requirements: minimum requirements (education/experience).
- Qualifications: preferred education/experience.
