General/Interdisciplinary Engineer
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate.
We need to parse the posting.
Let's extract content:
Overview: General/Interdisciplinary Engineer LOCATION: Tinker AFB OK JOB STATUS: Full-time CLEARANCE: Secret CERTIFICATION: n/a TRAVEL: Limited, as needed
Then description: Astrion has an exciting opportunity for a General/Interdisciplinary Engineer providing support to the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center/Airborne Warning and Control System (AFLCMC/HBS/WIW). The Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) Division, has the collective Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC) mission responsibility to deliver airborne Battle Management Command & Control (BMC2) capabilities that support joint, allied, coalition, humanitarian, and homeland defense operations. Modernization efforts enable continued involvement with worldwide operations by revitalizing legacy mission systems, replacing aging computer architectures, integrating multi‑sensor data fusion, and improving global expeditionary readiness and availability. Additionally, the Division assists in the planned divestiture of the E‑3 platform and in shaping development of follow‑on capabilities for future airborne C2 systems. This is a full time Hybrid position located at Tinker AFB, OK. Position Contingent Upon Contract Award*
Then Required Qualifications / Skills Minimum Required Qualifications Clearance: Must hold an active Secret clearance Preferred Qualifications Education: Bachelor’s Degree in a related field and 3 years of experience in the respective technical/professional discipline being performed, 3 of which must be in the DoD OR 7 years of directly related experience, 5 of which must be in the DoD Preferred Qualifications/Skills Technical Skills [list] Interpersonal Skills [list]
Then Responsibilities Duties include, but not limited to: [list of duties] (very long). Then after responsibilities, there is "Position Contingent Upon Contract Award*" again.
We need to produce sections: maybe About the role (overview), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Minimum Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications?), Skills (technical and interpersonal). Benefits, Pay, Schedule: none given, so we should not include those sections.
We must not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to preserve all substantive info: location, job status, clearance, travel, description, qualifications, responsibilities.
We need to format using for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to decide sections:
- About the role (overview): includes location, job status, clearance, travel, description. Could be a paragraph.
- Responsibilities: list of duties.
- Requirements: maybe Minimum Required Qualifications (clearance) and Preferred Qualifications (education/experience). Could be combined.
- Skills: Technical Skills and Interpersonal Skills.
We should not duplicate content.
We need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Position Contingent Upon Contract Award*" maybe we can keep as a note? It's not boilerplate? It's a statement about contingency. Might be considered substantive? It's a note about contract award. Could be included in About the role as a sentence.
We must not include repeated lines.
Let's extract details:
Location: Tinker AFB, OK
Job Status: Full-time
Clearance: Secret (must hold active Secret clearance)
Travel: Limited, as needed
Certification: n/a (maybe ignore as boilerplate)
Position Contingent Upon Contract Award* (note)
Description paragraph: Astrion has an exciting opportunity... (the long paragraph). We'll keep that.
Now Responsibilities: The long list under "Responsibilities Duties include, but not limited to:" includes many bullet-like sentences separated by periods. We need to turn into
- . The text includes many sentences; we can split by sentences that start with capital letters and end with period. But we can approximate by making each line a bullet. However we must preserve all substantive information; we can keep as a single paragraph? The instruction says use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to make a list. We'll need to parse the responsibilities text into items.
The responsibilities section includes multiple paragraphs with headings like "Design & Architectures", "Acquisition", "Technical Management". Each has sub-bullets. We could treat each heading as a subheading? But we only allowed
for section headings. Could we add ? Not allowed. Probably we should keep as a single list ignoring headings, but we might lose structure. However instruction: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So only those headings. Inside responsibilities we can use - . We can keep the headings as plain text inside
- or as . Not prohibited. We'll keep them as part of list items.
Thus we will create a
with each duty as - . We'll need to split the responsibilities text into sensible items.
Let's copy responsibilities text:
"Responsibilities Duties include, but not limited to: Design & Architectures The Contractor shall provide engineering support in the design, operation, and sustainment of systems and components that cover tasks throughout the acquisition life cycle (requirements analysis through system disposal).

We need to split into items. Could break at each capitalized heading: "Design & Architectures", "Acquisition", "Technical Management". Also each sentence after that.
Simplify: We'll create a list with each sentence as an item. Might be many items but okay.
Let's manually split:
