We need to output only HTML fragment, no html/body tags, no markdown fences. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. We need to extract content. Let's parse the job posting. First part: "About Our Job With competitive pay, great benefits, and endless opportunities, working for the City and County of Denver means seeing yourself working with purpose — for you, and those who benefit from your passion, skills and expertise. Join our diverse, inclusive and talented workforce of more than 11,000 team members who are at the heart of what makes Denver, Denver." That's like an introductory paragraph. Could be "About the role" maybe. But we need to decide sections. We have "What We Offer" with salary range and benefits. That includes Pay and Benefits. We have "Location & Schedule" with location and schedule details. We have "Who We Are & What You’ll Do" describing responsibilities. We have "Specifically, in this position, you will:" list of duties. We have "What You’ll Bring" describing qualifications/skills. We have "Required Minimum Qualifications" with education, experience, license/certifications. We have "Application Deadline" etc but we need to drop application instructions. We have "Job Profile CO2721 Forensic Pathologist" etc but we drop minor metadata. We have "Position Type Unlimited Position Salary Range $214,121.00 - $364,005.00 Target Pay $240,000.00 - $360,000.00 Agency Dept of Public Health & Environment Redeployment during Citywide Emergencies ..." This includes Pay and maybe other. We need to avoid boilerplate EEO etc. We need to include sections only when there is real specific content. Let's decide sections: - About the role: could combine the introductory paragraph and maybe "Who We Are & What You’ll Do"? Actually "Who We Are & What You’ll Do" is more about responsibilities. So "About the role" could be the introductory paragraph about the organization and purpose. - Responsibilities: list of duties from "Specifically, in this position, you will:" plus maybe other duties described earlier. - Requirements: maybe "Required Minimum Qualifications" (education, experience, license/certifications). Also "What You’ll Bring" could be Skills/Qualifications. But we have separate headings for Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide which to use. We have "Required Minimum Qualifications" which includes education, experience, license/certifications. That's qualifications. We have "What You’ll Bring" which includes experience, skills, characteristics. That could be Skills. We could also have a Qualifications section for education/license, and Skills for experience/characteristics. Pay: we have salary info in "What We Offer": New hires typically brought into organization between $240,000.00 - $364,005.00. Also later Position Type Unlimited Position Salary Range $214,121.00 - $364,005.00 Target Pay $240,000.00 - $360,000.00. We need to include Pay section only if posting states them. It does. So we can include Pay with that range. Benefits: "What We Offer" includes benefits list: guaranteed life-long monthly pension after 5 years, 457B Retirement Plan, 140 hours PTO earned within first year + 12 paid holidays, 1 personal holiday, 1 Wellness Day and 1 volunteer day per year, Competitive medical, dental and vision plans effective within 1 month of start date, Free RTD EcoPass, Education Refund Program (tuition reimbursement), Eligibility for Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Program. Also maybe other benefits. Schedule: "Location & Schedule" includes location and schedule: work on site at Office of the Medical Examiner, 500 Quivas St., Denver, CO. The Office is 24/7/365 operation, though autopsies performed Monday – Friday, excluding weekends and holidays. On-call duties shared between all Forensic Pathologists including the Chief. Also later mentions on-call responsibilities, emergency preparedness, may require being 'on-call' from time to time respond to emergencies. So schedule info present. We also have location; but schedule section should include schedule details; location could be included in schedule or maybe we could add a separate section? Not required; we can include location in schedule paragraph. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, application instructions, navigation, cookie, legal. Also remove "Application Deadline" etc? The instruction says remove application instructions. So we should drop the "Application Deadline" paragraph and the "To be considered..." etc. Also drop "Job Profile CO2721 Forensic Pathologist" etc. Also drop "Position Type Unlimited Position Salary Range ..." maybe we already used salary info; but that paragraph also includes Position Type, Agency, Redeployment during Citywide Emergencies. The redeployment info might be relevant? It's about emergency redeployment; could be considered part of responsibilities or schedule? Might be considered a benefit? It's a policy. Might be considered part of responsibilities? Not sure. Safer to keep if it's substantive and not boilerplate. It says: "City and County of Denver employees may be re-deployed to work in other capacities in their own agencies or in other city agencies to support core functions of the city during a citywide emergency declared by the Mayor." That's a policy; could be considered part of responsibilities or maybe a note. Could be included under Responsibilities as a bullet. But we need to avoid duplication. We also have "Redeployment during Citywide Emergencies" heading in the text; we can treat that as a bullet under Responsibilities. We must not include "Agency Dept of Public Health & Environment" maybe as metadata; could be omitted. We need to preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. Thus we need to extract all substantive content and place into appropriate sections. Let's list substantive paragraphs: 1. Intro: "About Our Job With competitive pay, great benefits, and endless opportunities, working for the City and County of Denver means seeing yourself working with purpose — for you, and those who benefit from your passion, skills and expertise. Join our diverse, inclusive and talented workforce of more than 11,000 team members who are at the heart of what makes Denver, Denver." 2. "What We Offer The City and County of Denver offers a competitive salary commensurate with education and experience.

We also offer generous benefits for full-time employees which include but are not limited to: A guaranteed life-long monthly pension, once vested after 5 years of service 457B Retirement Plan 140 hours of PTO earned within first year + 12 paid holidays, 1 personal holiday, 1 Wellness Day and 1 volunteer day per year Competitive medical, dental and vision plans effective within 1 month of start date Free RTD EcoPass Education Refund Program (tuition reimbursement) towards continued learning Eligibility for Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Program" Note: there is a missing punctuation but we keep as is. 3.
