We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes intro paragraphs. We need to use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real content.
We need to preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Capital One will consider sponsoring a new qualified applicant for employment authorization for this position." That's maybe not boilerplate but could be considered part of posting; but it's not a heading. It's a statement about sponsorship; we should keep? It's not boilerplate; it's a substantive note about sponsorship. Probably keep.
We need to parse the posting:
Intro: "Do you love building and pioneering in the technology space? Do you enjoy solving complex business problems in a fast-paced, collaborative, inclusive and iterative delivery environment? At Capital One, you'll be part of a big group of makers, breakers, doers and disruptors who solve real problems and meet real customer needs. We are seeking Full-stack Software Engineers who are passionate about leveraging cutting-edge open source frameworks and emerging technologies. In this role, you’ll be at the forefront of driving a major transformation across Capital One."
That's about the role.
Then "What You’ll Do:" list of responsibilities.
Then "Basic Qualifications:" list.
Then "Preferred Qualifications:" list.
Then salary info.
Then benefits mention.
Then other stuff about application timeline, agencies, EEO, etc. Those are boilerplate to remove.
We need sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (What You’ll Do), Requirements (maybe Basic Qualifications?), Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications?), Skills (maybe list of technologies?), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
We have:
- About the role: intro paragraph(s). Good.
- Responsibilities: bullet list under "What You’ll Do:".
- Requirements: Basic Qualifications.
- Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications.
- Skills: maybe list of programming languages, tools etc. Could be extracted from responsibilities or qualifications. But we could also put under Skills a list of technologies: Java, Scala, Python, Go, Node.js, JavaScript, TypeScript, Open Source RDBMS and NoSQL databases, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS tools/services.
But we must not invent content; we need to preserve all substantive info. If we create a Skills section, we need to pull the relevant content from the posting. The posting includes "Utilize programming languages like Java, Scala, Python, Go, Node.js, JavaScript and TypeScript, Open Source RDBMS and NoSQL databases, Container Orchestration services including Docker and Kubernetes, and a variety of AWS tools and services". That's a substantive list. Also many preferred qualifications list specific years of experience with certain tech. Could be considered skills. But we can keep them under Qualifications.
We need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps we can combine Skills into Responsibilities or Qualifications. But the instruction says use headings for those categories if we have content. We could create a Skills section with that list.
Benefits: The posting mentions "Capital One offers a comprehensive, competitive, and inclusive set of health, financial and other benefits that support your total well-being. Learn more at the Capital One Careers website." That's substantive enough for Benefits section.
Pay: Salary ranges for locations. That's substantive.
Schedule: Not mentioned. No schedule info. So we should NOT include Schedule section.
We also need to include maybe a short paragraph for metadata like Job ID? Not needed.
We must not repeat the job title as heading.
We must not include boilerplate like "Capital One is an equal opportunity employer..." etc. Remove those lines.
Also remove "This role is expected to accept applications for a minimum of 5 business days. No agencies please." etc.
Also remove the long EEO and accommodation paragraphs.
Also remove the note about Capital One Financial entities.
Now produce HTML fragment.

Alternatively could list as ul. But we already have that in Responsibilities; maybe we shouldn't duplicate. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we put the same sentence in both Responsibilities and Skills, that's duplication. Better to not duplicate. We could move that sentence to Skills and remove from Responsibilities? But Responsibilities already includes that line as a bullet. If we remove it, we lose that detail from Responsibilities. Could keep it in Responsibilities and not have Skills section. But we need to decide if we want Skills section. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we skip Skills section and keep that detail under Responsibilities. That avoids duplication. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. Now Benefits: we have a sentence about benefits. Could also include "Eligibility varies based on full or part-time status, exempt or non-exempt status, and management level." That's also benefits-related but maybe boilerplate? It's still about benefits eligibility. Might keep as part of Benefits. Pay: we have salary ranges for three locations and note about other locations, performance based incentive compensation. We should keep that. Now we need to remove boilerplate lines: "Capital One will consider sponsoring a new qualified applicant for employment authorization for this position." This is not boilerplate but maybe we keep? It's a substantive note about sponsorship. Could keep under About the role or a separate note. But we don't have a heading for sponsorship. Could add a short p under About the role. Also "This role is also eligible to earn performance based incentive compensation, which may include cash bonus(es) and/or long term incentives (LTI)." That's part of Pay. Now also "Learn more at the Capital One Careers website." That's part of Benefits. Now also "Eligibility varies based on full or part-time status, exempt or non-exempt status, and management level." That's benefits eligibility. Now also "This role is expected to accept applications for a minimum of 5 business days. No agencies please." That's application instruction; remove. Now also the EEO paragraphs etc; remove. Now also the accommodation paragraphs; remove. Now also the note about third-party products; remove. Now also the note about Capital One Financial entities; remove. Now also the line about "Capital One will consider for employment qualified applicants with a criminal history..." that's EEO; remove. Now also the line about "If you have visited our website..." accommodation; remove. Now also the line about "For technical support or questions about Capital One's recruiting process..." remove. Now also the line about "Capital One does not provide, endorse nor guarantee..." remove. Now also the line about "Capital One Financial is made up of several different entities..." remove. Now also the line about "Please note that any position posted in Canada is for Capital One Canada..." remove. Now also the line about "The minimum and maximum full-time annual salaries for this role are listed below, by location." That's part of Pay. Now also the line about "Salaries for part-time roles will be prorated based upon the agreed upon number of hours to be regularly worked." That's part of Pay. Now also the line about "Candidates hired to work in other locations will be subject to the pay range associated with that location, and the actual annualized salary amount offered to any candidate at the time of hire will be reflected solely in the candidate’s offer letter." That's part of Pay. Now also the line about "This role is also eligible to earn performance based incentive compensation..." part of Pay. Now also the line about "Incentives could be discretionary or non discretionary depending on the plan." part of Pay. Now also the line about "Capital One offers a comprehensive, competitive, and inclusive set of health, financial and other benefits that support your total well-being." part of Benefits. Now also the line about "Learn more at the Capital One Careers website." part of Benefits. Now also the line about "Eligibility varies based on full or part-time status, exempt or non-exempt status, and management level." part of Benefits. Now also the line about "This role is expected to accept applications for a minimum of 5 business days. No agencies please." remove. Now also the line about "
