We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "POSITION PURPOSE" and sections like Essential Job Functions (with subcategories: Facilities Maintenance & Repair, Inspection, Inventory & Equipment, Administrative, Safety, Supervisory Responsibilities, PERSONAL WORK RELATIONSHIPS, Other Duties As Assigned). Also Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities; Travel Requirements; PHYSICAL & MENTAL DEMANDS, WORK HAZARDS; Minimum Required Qualifications; APPROVED COMBINATIONS; Insurability Requirements For All Drivers; etc. We need to use

for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). But we should only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to map content to these headings appropriately. The instructions: "use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we should use those exact headings? Probably we can use those as appropriate: About the role (position purpose), Responsibilities (essential job functions), Requirements (knowledge, skills, abilities, minimum qualifications), Qualifications (maybe education/experience), Skills (maybe knowledge, skills, abilities), Benefits (if any), Pay (salary), Schedule (duty days). We must not repeat job title as heading. Also we should not include Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. The posting includes Salary range and Duty Days, so we can include Pay and Schedule sections. Benefits? Not mentioned, so we should not include Benefits section. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate etc. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. We need to decide how to structure content. We have many details: POSITION PURPOSE (prose). Essential Job Functions broken into categories with bullet-like sentences. Could treat each bullet as

  • under a
      within Responsibilities section. Might need subheadings? Not allowed? Only

      for section headings. Could we still have

      ? Not specified; better to avoid extra headings. Could use

      for prose and

      • for lists. We could have sections:

        About the role

        POSITION PURPOSE ...

        Responsibilities

        • Facilities Maintenance & Repair: Assesses District facilities for needed repairs ...
        • ... etc. But we need to preserve all details; we could break each sentence into separate
        • . Might be long but okay. We also have Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities (list). Could be under Requirements or Skills section. Since we have both Requirements and Skills headings, we could put Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities under Skills. Requirements could include Minimum Required Qualifications and Approved Combinations and Insurability Requirements. Travel Requirements could be under Responsibilities? Or maybe under Requirements? But we have a Travel Requirements section; we could put under Responsibilities? But better to have a separate section? The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Travel Requirements into Responsibilities or Requirements. However we have a specific "Travel Requirements" heading in posting; we could treat as part of Responsibilities (since it's about travel). But we need to preserve content; we could include it as a
        • under Responsibilities. Physical & Mental Demands, Work Hazards could be under Requirements? Or maybe under Responsibilities? Could be under Requirements (physical requirements). We'll include as a
        • under Requirements. Minimum Required Qualifications and Approved Combinations and Insurability Requirements could be under Qualifications section. We need to avoid placeholder text like "commensurate with experience" etc. Not present. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. The posting includes some lines like "This document is intended to describe the general nature..." that's boilerplate; we should remove that. Also "Insurability Requirements For All Drivers" is substantive; keep. We need to preserve all substantive information: salary range, duty days, reports to, pay grade, FLSA status, PC#, etc. Those are metadata; we should fold minor metadata into a short

          or drop it. The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

          or drop it." So we can include a short paragraph at top with Reports to, Salary, Pay Grade, Duty Days, FLSA Status, PC#. That's minor metadata. Thus structure:

          Reports to: Director - Area Maintenance. Salary: $64,909-$78,202. Pay Grade: 402. Duty Days: 244. FLSA Status: Exempt. PC#: 23354.
