We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content.
We need to parse the job description.
We need to preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions). Also remove things like "Applications for this position will be accepted until Sept. 26, 2026" (application instructions). Also remove "Export Control Requirements", "Conflict of Interest", "Drug Free Workplace", "Equal Opportunity Employer", etc. Also remove "Shift: This position is for 1st shift." maybe schedule? Actually schedule is a section if posting actually states schedule. It says "This position is expected to be 100% onsite. The selected candidate will be required to work onsite at the listed location." Also "Shift: This position is for 1st shift." So schedule info: 100% onsite, 1st shift. So we can include a Schedule section with that.
Pay: there is Summary Pay Range for Level 3 and Level 4. So we can include Pay section with those ranges.
Benefits: The posting mentions "At Boeing, we strive to deliver a Total Rewards package that will attract, engage and retain the top talent. Elements of the Total Rewards package include competitive base pay and variable compensation opportunities. The Boeing Company also provides eligible employees with an opportunity to enroll in a variety of benefit programs, generally including health insurance, flexible spending accounts, health savings accounts, retirement savings plans, life and disability insurance programs, and a number of programs that provide for both paid and unpaid time away from work." That's benefits info. So we can include Benefits section summarizing that.
Qualifications: There's Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience) and Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience). Also Typical Education/Experience for Level 3 and Level 4. Could combine into Requirements/Qualifications sections. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which sections to include.
We have About the role: introductory paragraph about Boeing, mission, etc. That's substantive.
Responsibilities: there is a "Position Responsibilities:" block with bullet-like sentences. We'll put those in
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content.

We have About the role: introductory paragraph about Boeing, mission, etc. That's substantive.
Responsibilities: there is a "Position Responsibilities:" block with bullet-like sentences. We'll put those in - .
Requirements: maybe Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience). Could be Requirements.
Qualifications: maybe Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience) plus Typical Education/Experience.
Skills: maybe list of skills from "We seek candidates with interest and skills in the following areas:" and later bullet-like list.
We need to avoid duplication. Let's extract content.
First, About the role: The first paragraph(s) up to "This position is for Ground Engineers who enjoys being a leader; offering the opportunity to provide overall direction for major sections of our ground system software development staff and programs." Actually that's part of role description. Let's capture:
"At Boeing, we innovate and collaborate to make the world a better place. We’re committed to fostering an environment for every teammate that’s welcoming, respectful and inclusive, with great opportunity for professional growth. Find your future with us. Boeing Defense, Space and Security (BDS), Space & Mission Systems MILSATCOM Program, is seeking a Ground Systems Test & Integration Engineer (Level 3 or 4) to provide leadership and guidance in development of our nation’s next generation of satellite ground mission planning systems in Colorado Springs, CO This position is for Ground Engineers who enjoys being a leader; offering the opportunity to provide overall direction for major sections of our ground system software development staff and programs. The successful candidate will be leading the development of cutting-edge technology in an agile environment."
We can keep that as About the role.
Responsibilities: The block after "Position Responsibilities:" includes multiple sentences each starting with a verb. We'll turn each into
- .
List them:
- Applies an interdisciplinary, collaborative approach to plan, design, develop and verify complex lifecycle balanced system of systems and system solutions.

We should ensure each is a separate
- .

Also Typical Education/Experience for Level 3 and Level 4 could be included but maybe redundant. We'll keep them as part of Qualifications.
Skills: The list "We seek candidates with interest and skills in the following areas:" includes:
- Ground system engineering
- software integration and test
- formal qualification
Then later bullet-like list:

Also later: "As a member of the MILSATCOM Mission Planning Development Team, you'll be working with supplier/contractor software, system engineering, and test teams on requirement generation, requirement verification, support to the customer’s delivered system. The team will work closely with customer on requirement generation, development the ground mission planning system, then develop, execute, and document test plans, procedures, and reports of the ground system and systems from single components to larger functional systems." This could be part of Responsibilities but we already have responsibilities. Might be duplicate. We'll keep it maybe as part of Responsibilities but we already have many. Could add as additional responsibility bullet.
But to avoid duplication, we could incorporate that into Responsibilities as additional bullet.
But we need to ensure we preserve all substantive info. Let's include that as a responsibility bullet: "Work with supplier/contractor software, system engineering, and test teams on requirement generation, requirement verification, and support to the customer’s delivered system; work closely with customer on requirement generation, development of the ground mission planning system; develop, execute, and document test plans, procedures, and reports of the ground system and systems from single components to larger functional systems."
Now Benefits: The paragraph about Total Rewards package. We'll put that as
maybe with
- for each benefit? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should list benefits as list items.
Benefits list:
- competitive base pay and variable compensation opportunities
- health insurance
- flexible spending accounts
- health savings accounts
- retirement savings plans
- life and disability insurance programs
- programs that provide for both paid and unpaid time away from work
We could also mention "eligible employees with an opportunity to enroll in a variety of benefit programs". We'll capture as list.
Pay: Summary Pay Range Mid-Level (Level 3): $112,200 - $151,800; Summary Pay Range Lead (Level 4): $136,850 - $185,150.
We'll put as
maybe.
Schedule: "This position is expected to be 100% onsite. The selected candidate will be required to work onsite at the listed location." and "Shift: This position is for 1st shift." So schedule: 100% onsite, 1st shift.
We'll put as

We need to ensure we don't include empty sections. All have content.
Now we need to be careful not to repeat info. For example, "Excellent oral and written communication skills" appears multiple times; we can combine.
Let's craft the content.
About the role paragraph: combine the initial sentences.
