Full-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must parse the description. First, "Your role at GEI." That's a heading maybe "About the role". The description includes: "Your role at GEI. Essential Responsibilities & Duties GEI is seeking highly motivated individuals to perform a broad range of geotechnical and construction engineering technician inspection and testing duties as a casual-on-call employee on both short and long-term projects in various locations. Candidates will support a broader geotechnical engineering and construction services team in completing geotechnical laboratory testing, overseeing subsurface exploration activities, and performing construction inspection activities on a variety of municipal, commercial, industrial and federal projects to document the construction activities performed by others are consistent with project specifications and drawings. Candidates will also provide materials testing and data collection for all types of construction projects including, but not limited to, foundation subgrade testing, soil density testing, field testing of concrete and will also perform various laboratory testing of soil and concrete materials." So we can have About the role (maybe combine with responsibilities). But we need separate sections: About the role (prose), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (maybe Minimum Qualifications), Qualifications (maybe preferred), Skills (maybe organizational and communication skills), Benefits (Total Rewards Package), Pay (not specified, so we should NOT include Pay section), Schedule (maybe mention "Hybrid Work Schedules Are Available" but that's vague; also "Usual Workday Hours X 8 X 10 12 Other work hours" indicates schedule options but not specific. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Benefits: they list "GEI’s Total Rewards Package Includes Market-Competitive Compensation Connecting Conversation Program with a Focus on Professional Development and Opportunities for Advancement Rewards and Recognition A Vibrant Culture that is Focused on Partnership, Sustainability, Giving Back to Our Communities and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion For Some Positions, Hybrid Work Schedules Are Available And More…" That's benefits content. So we can include Benefits section. Schedule: they mention "Hybrid Work Schedules Are Available" and "Usual Workday Hours X 8 X 10 12 Other work hours". That's somewhat specific: indicates possible work hours 8,10,12. Could be considered schedule info. The instruction: never create Schedule section unless posting actually states them. It does state hybrid work schedules available and usual workday hours options. So we can include Schedule section with that info. Pay: they mention "Market-Competitive Compensation" but not specific numbers. That's vague; "Market-Competitive Compensation" is not a specific figure. The instruction: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). "Market-Competitive Compensation" is similar to vague; better to omit Pay section. Now we need to structure. Sections: - About the role: prose summarizing role (maybe first paragraph). Could be: "GEI is seeking highly motivated individuals to perform a broad range of geotechnical and construction engineering technician inspection and testing duties as a casual-on-call employee on both short and long-term projects in various locations." - Responsibilities: list of duties: support geotechnical engineering team in completing geotechnical laboratory testing, overseeing subsurface exploration activities, performing construction inspection activities on various municipal/commercial/industrial/federal projects to document consistency with specs/drawings; provide materials testing and data collection for all types of construction projects including foundation subgrade testing, soil density testing, field testing of concrete; perform various laboratory testing of soil and concrete materials. We can bullet each. - Requirements: Minimum Qualifications: High School Diploma required, AS degree in Engineering Technology, BS in Construction Management, or related field highly preferred. Valid driver’s license required. Excellent organizational and communication skills. Previous experience in construction inspection and testing capacity with experience in soils, concrete, and bituminous paving. Previously certified from ACI in soil or concrete testing and State of Michigan highly desired or ability to obtain certifications. Previous Resident Engineering Experience is a plus. Must be willing to travel on temporary assignments as necessary, including field assignments. We could separate Requirements (minimum) and Qualifications (preferred). But we have both sections available. Let's assign: Requirements: Minimum Qualifications (hard requirements): High School Diploma required, Valid driver’s license required, Excellent organizational and communication skills, Previous experience in construction inspection and testing capacity with experience in soils, concrete, and bituminous paving, Must be willing to travel on temporary assignments as necessary, including field assignments. Qualifications: Preferred/desired: AS degree in Engineering Technology, BS in Construction Management, or related field highly preferred; Previously certified from ACI in soil or concrete testing and State of Michigan highly desired or ability to obtain certifications; Previous Resident Engineering Experience is a plus. Skills: maybe "Excellent organizational and communication skills" already covered; but we could also list "Ability to obtain certifications", "Experience with soils, concrete, bituminous paving". However we might combine. Better: Skills section could list "Organizational skills, Communication skills, Ability to perform field and laboratory testing, Knowledge of soils, concrete, and bituminous paving, ACI certification capability". But we must not invent; we can pull from text: "Excellent organizational and communication skills." "Previous experience in construction inspection and testing capacity with experience in soils, concrete, and bituminous paving." "Previously certified from ACI in soil or concrete testing and State of Michigan highly desired or the ability to obtain certifications." So we can list those as skills. Benefits: list from Total Rewards Package: Market-Competitive Compensation, Connecting Conversation Program with a Focus on Professional Development and Opportunities for Advancement, Rewards and Recognition, A Vibrant Culture that is Focused on Partnership, Sustainability, Giving Back to Our Communities and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, For Some Positions, Hybrid Work Schedules Are Available, And More… (we can omit "And More…" as filler). We'll list those. Schedule: Hybrid Work Schedules Are Available; Usual Workday Hours: 8, 10, 12 hours options. We need to output HTML fragment only, using

for section headings,
  • for lists,

    for prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc. We must remove boilerplate like EEO etc. At end there is "GEI is an AA/equal opportunity employer, including disabled and veterans." That's boilerplate; remove. Also remove "See all our office locations here." etc. Also "Get to know us better by visiting GEI’s career site here." etc. Also "Employee-owned. Employee-focused." etc. That's description but maybe part of About the role? It's more about company culture; could be included in About the role or Benefits? It's not a benefit per se but could be part of About the role. However we already have About the role; we could incorporate some of that as prose. But we must preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include that content somewhere. The company description paragraphs: "We are GEI. Some of the world’s most pressing problems ... With several offices across North America, we offer a range of engineering, science, and technical consulting services. Our range of expertise, project types, and culture make us the choice for top talent in the AEC industry. See all our office locations here. Employee-owned. Employee-focused. As an employee-owned company, our employees support our flat leadership structure, have a say in how our business operates and benefit from our financial success. We are committed to employee growth with career development opportunities, competitive total rewards, a well-being program, flexible work arrangements and more. Our company culture is driven by our 4 Cs – we are Client-Centered, Curious, Collaborative, and Community Minded – which support our focus on sustainability, safety, diversity, equity and inclusion. Get to know us better by visiting GEI’s career site here." This is substantive about company; we could include in About the role or maybe a separate section like "About GEI". But we only have predefined headings; we could put under About the role (since it's about the role and company). However About the role heading is for role description; but we can include company info there as prose. It's okay. We must not include navigation/link phrases like "See all our office locations here." "Get to know us better by visiting GEI’s career site here." Those are link prompts; they might be considered boilerplate? They are not essential info; they are just calls to action. Might be considered boilerplate; but they are not cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. "See all our office locations here." is a navigation link; likely considered navigation. So we should remove that. Similarly "Get to know us better by visiting GEI’s career site here." is navigation/link; remove. Thus we keep the descriptive sentences without the links. Now craft HTML. We'll have sections:
