We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only sections with real content. From posting: - About The Opportunity: description. That's "About the role" maybe. - What You'll Do: responsibilities. - Requirements: includes "What We're Looking For" bullet list. - Preferred Qualifications: could be Qualifications. - Additional Requirements: maybe part of Requirements or Qualifications? It's about citizenship. - Benefits: listed. - Pay: compensation: $150,000-$225,000 base salary + equity. Also Travel: Travel to customer sites as needed (maybe schedule? Travel is not schedule but could be part of Pay? Actually Travel is separate but we have no heading for Travel; we could put under Benefits? Not appropriate. Could be under Pay? Not exactly. The instruction: include Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections only if posting actually states them. Pay is stated: $150,000-$225,000 base salary + equity. So we need a Pay section. Schedule: Not mentioned. Travel is not schedule. So no Schedule. We also have Location: Seattle, WA or Chicago, IL — In Office. That's metadata; we can fold into a short

maybe at top. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment. Structure: maybe start with a

for location and compensation? But compensation will be its own Pay section. Location can be a short
