We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. No metadata like Job ID. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting: It's bilingual English and French. The content includes description, responsibilities, requirements, qualifications, skills, etc. Need to extract sections. We need to decide which sections to include: Likely About the role (description), Responsibilities (list of duties), Requirements (maybe education/experience), Qualifications (maybe preferred), Skills (communication etc.), Benefits (maybe not present), Pay (not present), Schedule (maybe travel up to 15% - that's schedule? Travel requirement could be considered schedule? But schedule usually refers to work schedule like full-time, part-time, shift. Travel requirement is not schedule. So we likely omit Pay, Schedule, Benefits unless explicitly stated. There's no explicit benefits, pay, schedule. So we will not include those headings. We need to include sections only if there is real specific content. So we will have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We must use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can format them. We need to avoid duplication: The posting has English and French versions overlapping. We need to include content but not duplicate same info. We should combine? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." If we have both English and French saying same thing, we might need to include both? But that would be duplication. The instruction also says: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." Duplicated lines should be removed. So we should deduplicate identical content across languages. However the English and French sections are translations, not identical lines but convey same meaning. Are they considered duplicated lines? Likely they are considered duplicated content (same info in two languages). We should keep only one language version? The instruction: "Remove ... duplicated lines". If the same meaning appears in both languages, they are not identical lines but could be considered duplicated content. Safer to keep only one version (maybe English) to avoid duplication. But we need to preserve all substantive information; if we drop French, we lose some nuance? However the English version already covers the same content. The French version is basically translation; we could keep English only. That would not lose substantive information because the English already contains it. The French version is just translation; we can drop it as duplicate. We'll keep English sections. Now parse English portion: First paragraph: "Shape Your World At Alcoa, you will become an essential part of our purpose: to turn raw potential into real progress. The way we see it, every Alcoan is a work-shaper, team-shaper, idea-shaper & world-shaper. Alcoa Transformation group is looking to fill the role of a Senior Engineer - Site Closure! Transformation is charged with the global responsibility to manage Alcoa’s identified environmental liabilities and assets at closed locations and to provide technical assistance for operating locations’ waste management needs to meet overall financial and risk avoidance goals. This role is responsible for providing strategic technical support to Transformation Locations for all aspects relating to impoundment operations, maintenance, and closure, and ensuring adherence to the Global Industry Standard for Tailings Management (GISTM) and Alcoa’s Impoundment Management System (IMS). This role will also serve as the Lead for the Integrated Closure Committee leading initiatives to enhance processes for Global site closure planning and Asset Retirement Obligation cost estimating." Then there is a heading "Technical Lead – Integrated Closure Committee" with bullet points. Then "Technical Consultant – Technical Support for Transformation Closure Projects" with bullet points. Then "Technical Consultant – GISTM & Alcoa IMS Program Oversight, Maintenance, and Optimization" with bullet points. Then "General Job Requirements" with bullet list. Then French section "About the Location" etc. That's location description, maybe we can include as About the role? Actually "About the Location" is separate. Could be part of About the role? Might be considered "About the Location" but we don't have a heading for location. We could include it under About the role as prose. But we need to avoid duplication. The location description is generic about Alcoa. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not EEO but it's about company. Might be considered substantive? It describes Alcoa's mission, locations, values. Could be kept as part of About the role. But we need to avoid EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. The French section includes "Dans cette publication, le masculin est utilisé afin d’alléger le texte. Alcoa est fière d’être un milieu de travail offrant l’égalité des chances..." That's EEO boilerplate; we should remove that. Also later "As a proud equal opportunity workplace..." etc. That's EEO boilerplate; remove. Thus we keep the substantive description about Alcoa's purpose, locations, sustainability, etc. That's not EEO. Now we need to structure. Section About the role: Could combine the initial paragraph plus the location description (excluding EEO). Let's extract: English initial paragraph up to "Asset Retirement Obligation cost estimating." That's about role. Then after that, there is "Technical Lead – Integrated Closure Committee" etc. Those are responsibilities. Thus About the role could be the first paragraph (maybe two sentences). We'll keep that as prose. Responsibilities: All bullet points under the three Technical Lead/Consultant sections. We'll combine them into a single list? Or we could keep subheadings? The instruction: Use

    for section headings. Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. It doesn't forbid having multiple lists under a section. We could have a
        with all responsibilities. We need to preserve all substantive information; we should not lose any bullet. Let's extract each bullet. From Technical Lead – Integrated Closure Committee: - Provide strategic technical input into the development of Global policies, standards, and guidelines establishing the framework to ensure implementation of cost-effective closure solutions that meet applicable regulatory and Alcoa requirements. - Perform technical gap assessments of site closure plans and associated cost estimates and support development of gap closure plans. - Provide recommendations to optimize the geotechnical designs, construction, and monitoring of Global closure strategies and designs - Conduct risk assessments and readiness reviews for closure execution. From Technical Consultant – Technical Support for Transformation Closure Projects: - Perform technical reviews of studies, data, and reports including geotechnical investigation reports, seepage analyses, closure designs, monitoring data, QA/QC protocols, and related documents. - Provide technical guidance to Locations to perform required geotechnical site investigations, stability analyses, closure works, and maintenance and monitoring activities. - Interpret monitoring data and recommend modifications to optimize operations and maintenance programs. - Perform site visits to support development of closure plans, optimize O&M Programs, and provide technical support during active construction projects. From Technical Consultant – GISTM & Alcoa IMS Program Oversight, Maintenance, and Optimization: - Provide technical support to Locations to develop scopes of work, review deliverables, and perform risk assessments for various impoundment projects. - Oversee program maintenance requirements to ensure ongoing conformance with Alcoa requirements while actively identifying opportunities to improve program efficiency and reduce risk. - Coordinate internal assurance reviews and external audits related to impoundment management with project teams. - Update technical standards, guidelines, and procedures based on lessons learned and industry standard practices. - Coordinate collection of relevant site data from the locations to support internal reporting requirements. Now Requirements: Under "General Job Requirements" bullet list: - Bachelor’s degree in Geotechnical Engineering, Geology, Civil Engineering, or a closely related engineering discipline. - Master’s degree preferred in: Geotechnical Engineering, Geological Engineering, or similar field. - PE or PG license is preferred. - Minimum of 5 years’ progressive engineering experience working on projects in an industrial, mining, process, manufacturing, or similar environment - Sound knowledge of internationally recognized tailings management standards and industry guidelines such as ICMM, ANCOLD, MAC/CDA, and GISTM. - Demonstrated experience in geotechnical engineering aspects of tailings dam closure planning, execution, and monitoring. - Experience performing geotechnical investigations, slope stability analyses and consolidation modelling. - Experience performing geotechnical risk assessments in accordance with industry practices, including evaluation of structural stability, and long‑term performance of legacy impoundments. - Strong verbal and written communication, interpersonal and influencing skills with demonstrated ability to challenge effectively and drive outcomes. - Strong organizational and time management skills, capacity to manage multiple initiatives simultaneously and drive aggressive implementation plans and schedules - Travel requirements up to 15% Note: The last bullet about travel requirements could be considered schedule? But it's a requirement. We'll keep under Requirements. Now Qualifications: The posting also has "What you bring to the role" in French section, but also there is English "General Job Requirements" which includes qualifications. The French section includes education, experience, knowledge, etc. That's duplicate. We'll treat the English list as both Requirements and Qualifications? We need separate sections if there is distinct content. The English list includes both requirements and qualifications (education, experience, skills). The French section includes similar but also mentions "Un baccalauréat..." etc. That's duplicate. So we can split: Requirements: education, experience, license. Qualifications: maybe preferred Master's, PE/PG license? But the instruction: Use sections only when posting has real, specific content for it. We have content for Requirements (education, experience, license). We have content for Qualifications (maybe Master's preferred, PE/PG preferred). But those are already in the list. Could combine. Better to have: Requirements (education, experience, license). Qualifications (Master's preferred, PE/PG preferred). Skills (communication, organizational, influencing). But we need to avoid duplication. Let's parse the English list items: 1. Bachelor’s degree in Geotechnical Engineering, Geology, Civil Engineering, or a closely related engineering discipline. -> Requirement (education) 2. Master’s degree preferred in: Geotechnical Engineering, Geological Engineering, or similar field. -> Qualification (preferred) 3. PE or PG license is preferred. -> Qualification (preferred) 4. Minimum of 5 years’ progressive engineering experience working on projects in an industrial, mining, process, manufacturing, or similar environment -> Requirement (experience) 5. Sound knowledge of internationally recognized tailings management standards and industry guidelines such as ICMM, ANCOLD, MAC/CDA, and GISTM. -> Could be Knowledge (maybe Skills/Requirements) 6. Demonstrated experience in geotechnical engineering aspects of tailings dam closure planning, execution, and monitoring. -> Experience 7. Experience performing geotechnical investigations, slope stability analyses and consolidation modelling. -> Experience 8. Experience performing geotechnical risk assessments in accordance with industry practices, including evaluation of structural stability, and long‑term performance of legacy impoundments. -> Experience 9. Strong verbal and written communication, interpersonal and influencing skills with demonstrated ability to challenge effectively and drive outcomes. -> Skills 10. Strong organizational and time management skills, capacity to manage multiple initiatives simultaneously and drive aggressive implementation plans and schedules -> Skills 11. Travel requirements up to 15% -> Could be Schedule? But it's a requirement about travel. We'll keep under Requirements maybe as a note. Thus we can create sections: - About the role (prose) - Responsibilities (list) - Requirements (list: education, experience, travel) - Qualifications (list: Master's preferred, PE/PG preferred) - Skills (list: communication, organizational, influencing, knowledge of standards? Actually knowledge
