We need to output HTML fragment with sections: h3 headings for sections present: About the role? Not given explicitly but we have description about company. Could treat as "About the role" maybe but we need to follow rule: use h3 for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Only include sections when posting has real specific content. We have content for Responsibilities (Technical Responsibilities), Requirements (Required Skills & Required Experience, Physical & Work Environment Requirements), Benefits (What We Offer), Pay (Salary Description), Schedule (Schedule). Also maybe "About the role" could be derived from description about company and position? The description includes company overview and position title. Could be considered "About the role". But we need to avoid filler. The company overview is substantive. So we can include an "About the role" section with that description (company overview and position). However the instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it)". So we can still have About the role heading with content about the role/company. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Also remove application instructions (none). Also remove cookie/navigation/legal etc. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract: Company description: "KSE is a mid-size construction management and engineering firm ranking in the ENR Top 100 for CM and ENR Top 500 for design services. With seven offices across four states (NY, NJ, PA and CT), the firm has been providing transportation and public infrastructure construction services for more than three and half decades." Position: "Position: Geotechnical Field Engineer Reports: Geotechnical Manager" Technical Responsibilities bullet list: - Perform geotechnical field investigations, explorations, geologic reconnaissance, and site mapping. - Prepare geotechnical field boring logs, soil and rock sampling, and field permeability testing. - Support geotechnical laboratory testing and analysis. - Perform basic engineering calculations, data interpretation, and technical analysis. - Assist in preparing geotechnical reports and project documentation. - Coordinate with subcontractors in the field to complete scope-of-work activities. - Travel to field assignments throughout NJ, NY, PA, and CT; occasional overnight stays may be required. - Work in alignment with construction schedules, which may require early morning, evening, and overnight field work. Requirements: "Required Skills & Required Experience:" then list: - 0 to 3 years of experience as a Geotechnical Field Engineer. - Bachelor’s degree in civil engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Geology, or a related field - Green Infrastructure project experience and permeability testing is a plus - Previous internship experience a plus. - Engineer-in-Training (EIT) certification – plus. - OSHA 10-hr or 40-hr HAZWOPER training – plus. - Experience with RSLog or gINT– plus. - Previous internship or field experience in geotechnical engineering – plus. - Ability to work independently and as part of a team. - Reliable transportation to travel between job sites and office/lab (mileage, tolls & parking reimbursed). Physical & Work Environment Requirements bullet list: - Ability to sit, stand, walk, climb, kneel, crouch, crawl, grasp, reach, push/pull, and perform repetitive motions as needed for field tasks. - Frequently lift and/or move up to 35 lbs. occasionally up to 75 lbs. - Visual acuity required for data analysis, computer use, reading, and site inspections. - Outdoor work performed 50–90% of the time, often on uneven terrain and in varying weather conditions. - Exposure to outdoor elements including insects, plants, animals, and environmental temperatures typical of the region. - Occasional exposure to hazards such as moving mechanical parts, vehicles, electrical systems, heights, scaffolding, or chemicals. - Daily travel ranging from 1 to 3 hours depending on project location; overnight travel may be required. Schedule section: The posting includes a "Schedule" paragraph: "Sites may require commute as long as 1 hour to 3 hours of driving. Sometimes overnight stay for the duration of the project. The field inspections/visits are dictated by construction schedules and could include early morning or late evening timing at the project site. Ability and willingness to work alternate hours, to include overnight hours as required by the project specific requirements. The employee is subject to both inside and outside environmental and climate conditions The employee is expected to perform approximately 50 to 90 percent of their work week outdoors with the remaining time in the office. Outdoor work frequently includes walking on uneven surfaces in all types of weather conditions and may have exposure to animals, insects, plants, etc. The employee is subject to hazards such as proximity to moving mechanical parts, moving vehicles, electrical current, working on scaffolding and high places, exposure to various heat/cold temperatures typical of the region or exposure to chemicals. Must have a reliable form of transportation to travel between job sites and the office/lab with equipment and/or samples. Miles, tolls, and parking reimbursed." Note some repetition with Physical requirements. We'll keep as schedule content. Benefits: "What We Offer" list: - In-house Safety Training and free PPE to field staff. - Dedicated mentorship program. - Learning and Development initiatives. - Purpose driven opportunity to work on exciting infrastructure and sustainability projects building America. - Inclusive culture celebrating diversity. - Health Insurance Benefits with HSA option. - Disability, Life Insurance, and 401K Retirement Accounts. - Paid Vacation and Sick Time, Paid Holidays. - Tuition Reimbursement. - Career Advancements. - Company Holiday Party, Company Summer Outings, Friday Breakfast, Monthly Heritage Celebration Lunch, Lunch & Learn Programs. Pay: Salary Description: "$55000 - $70000 per year" We need to output HTML fragment with h3 headings and appropriate ul/li or p. We should not include headings for empty sections. We'll include:

About the role

with p containing company overview and position line.

Responsibilities

with ul of responsibilities.

Requirements

maybe split into Skills/Experience and Physical? Could combine but better to have two sub-sections? The instruction says use h3 for section headings (list). Could have multiple h3 sections. We could have Requirements (skills/experience) and Physical & Work Environment Requirements as separate h3? But they'd be similar headings; maybe combine into one Requirements section with two sublists? However we must follow instruction: use h3 for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings but suggests those as examples. We could have Requirements and then Physical & Work Environment Requirements as a separate h3? Might be okay but risk of being considered thin. Better to combine into Requirements with two subsections using

or

    with headings inside? But we cannot use other headings besides h3? Not prohibited but we should follow pattern. Could do:

    Requirements

    Skills & Experience:

      ...

    Physical & Work Environment:

      ...
    That's acceptable.

    Benefits

    with ul.

    Pay

    with p.

    Schedule

    with p. We must ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO etc. Remove lines about equal opportunity employer etc. Also remove duplicated lines like "The employee is subject to both inside and outside environmental and climate conditions" appears twice; we should keep only once. Also remove "KS Engineers, P.C. is an EOE/AA/VEV/Disabled Employer." etc. Now craft HTML. Let's write:
