We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role?

We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting.

Actually "About the role" is generic; but we could use "About the role" heading for description of role?

Alliance Team Members Demonstrate DRIVE: (values) maybe could be part of Skills? Could be separate section? Not required but could be included under Skills? Might be considered part of Skills/Abilities? It's a list of values. Could be included under Skills as bullet points.
Pay: For California, Colorado, and Washington, the compensation range for this role is $120,000 to $160,000 plus eligible for bonus. Actual compensation is influenced by a variety of factors including but not limited to skills, experience, qualifications, and geographic location.
Thus we have Pay section.
Schedule: Not mentioned. So we should not create Schedule section.
Benefits: Not mentioned explicitly. No benefits listed. So we should not create Benefits section.
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. So we will have sections: Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications? Actually Education & Experience could be under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can map:
- Responsibilities: as above.
- Requirements: maybe Education & Experience (minimum qualifications). Could also include Standard and Physical Requirements? Those could be under Requirements as well. But we have separate "Standard and Physical Requirements". Could be part of Requirements or maybe a separate section? There's no heading for that in list, but we could put under Requirements as a sublist? However we must use only those headings; we cannot create new headings like "Physical Requirements". So we need to fit that content under one of the allowed headings. Probably under Requirements (includes education, experience, physical). Or we could put under Qualifications (which often includes education/experience). But we have both Requirements and Qualifications headings allowed. We need to decide.
We have Education & Experience (Bachelor's degree, 6 years experience, etc.) That's typical for Requirements or Qualifications. We also have Skills and Abilities list (skills). That's for Skills heading.
We have Standard and Physical Requirements (physical demands, driver's license, MVR). That could go under Requirements as well (makes sense). Or we could put under Qualifications? Usually qualifications include education, experience, skills, physical requirements. But we already have Skills separate. So we can put physical under Requirements.
Thus sections:
- Responsibilities (

Thus sections:
- Responsibilities (Responsibilities
) with - ...
- Requirements (
Requirements
) with education/experience + physical requirements.
- Qualifications (Qualifications
) maybe not needed if we already covered education/experience under Requirements. But we could put the "Bachelor’s degree..." under Qualifications and experience under Requirements? However we need to avoid duplication. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine education/experience and physical under Requirements, and skills under Skills. Then we might not need Qualifications section at all. But we need to include a section only when posting has real specific content. If we don't have content for Qualifications, we omit it.
Thus we will have sections: Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Pay.
Check if any other content like "About the role" could be used for company description? The intro about Alliance Laundry Systems Distribution is company overview, not role-specific. Could be placed under About the role? But About the role heading is for description of the role, not company. However we could still put company overview there if we want, but it's not role-specific. The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short or drop it." It doesn't forbid using About the role for company description, but it's better to use it for role summary. We have a paragraph at start: "Alliance Laundry Systems Distribution is a full-service commercial and industrial laundry equipment partner..." That's company description. Could be placed under About the role as a brief overview. But we also have responsibilities etc. Might be okay to include About the role with that company description. However we need to avoid filler. It's substantive.
Thus we could have sections: About the role (company overview), Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Pay.
Check if any content for Benefits? No.
Schedule? No.
Thus output HTML fragment with those sections.
We need to use
for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
Thus for About the role: we have prose (maybe multiple sentences). We'll put in
.
Responsibilities: list of duties; each bullet as
- .
Requirements: includes education/experience (maybe as
- ) and physical requirements (also list). Could combine into one list.
Skills: list of skills/abilities.
Pay: prose about compensation range.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details exactly as given.
Let's extract exact phrasing.
About the role paragraph: "Alliance Laundry Systems Distribution is a full-service commercial and industrial laundry equipment partner with over 110 years of industry experience. We offer comprehensive support services including installation, factory-trained service, genuine parts replacement, site selection, financing, and store design. We exclusively sell trusted brands — Speed Queen®, UniMac®, and Huebsch® — known for durability and reliability. We serve a wide range of customers, including laundromat owners, Speed Queen franchise operators, and on-premises laundry managers, helping them maximize profits and reduce operating costs."
We need to keep the em dash etc. Use HTML entities? We can keep as is.
Responsibilities bullets: need to capture each bullet exactly.
List from text:

Check if any missing: The text also includes "Drive daily business operations through effective leadership of sales, service, and installation at the distribution location(s)Partner with the Commercial Regional GM..." Actually there is no period between those two sentences in original? It appears as "...distribution location(s)Partner with the Commercial Regional GM..." but we can treat as separate bullet.
We'll keep as separate bullets.
