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. No job title heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove application instructions (Ready to apply? etc). Keep substantive info.
Let's parse the posting.
First paragraph: "At Inriver, we help brands deliver better product experiences - everywhere their customers are. From the first product detail to the final purchase decision, we make product information work smarter. Now we're looking for a Group Product Manager, Industry Solutions to be our platform expert in front of customers and our voice for B2B Manufacturing back into Product. This is a hybrid role - part Sales Engineering, part Product Management, part Solution Architect - for someone who loves being close to customers and close to product decisions at the same time. You'll represent Inriver in customer conversations such as RFPs, check-ins and events, and you'll represent our Ideal Customer Profile, B2B Manufacturing, inside Inriver. You'll bring back what you hear, and you'll influence roadmaps across teams to act on it. In some cases that means shaping what dev teams build next. In others, it means building the answer yourself, configuring templates and solutions using the Inriver platform's own extensibility (including MCPs) to show what's possible, no dev resources required. This role reports to the SVP of Product Management."
That's about the role.
Then "Why you'll love this role 💙" bullet list: Be the platform expert in the room: Demoing Inriver, answering the hard questions, and representing product in RFPs, customer check-ins, and events; Become our resident expert on B2B Manufacturing, our Ideal Customer Profile, and bring that signal directly into product decisions; Work hands-on with the platform's extensibility features and prototyping tools to create solutions yourself, not just spec them for someone else; Sit at the intersection of Sales, Partners, and Product, with real influence over what gets built; Join a company with strong product ambitions and a friendly, down-to-earth culture.
Then "What you’ll do 💭" bullet list: Represent the Inriver platform in customer-facing settings - RFP processes, existing customer check-ins, events, and partner conversations; Deliver product demos that speak credibly to both business and technical stakeholders; Gather structured feedback from customers and partners, and translate it into clear input for Product Management; Build deep expertise in B2B Manufacturing as our ICP; their workflows, data challenges, and buying criteria; Influence roadmap priorities across product teams by bringing evidence, not just requests; Identify where customer needs can be met through configuration and templates rather than new development, and prototype those solutions yourself; Partner closely with Sales, Partner teams, Marketing, and Customer Success to keep the product story sharp and consistent.
Then "What you’ll bring" bullet list: 5-10 years of experience in a hybrid role spanning Sales Engineering, Product Management, or Solution Development, or strong exposure to more than one of these disciplines; Comfort presenting and demoing complex software to customers, from technical buyers to business stakeholders; A builder's mindset: you'd rather configure a working prototype than write a requirements doc about one; Experience within B2B Manufacturing; Familiarity with platform extensibility concepts (APIs, low-code configurators, MCPs, or similar), or eagerness to get hands-on with them; Strong communication skills: equally comfortable in an RFP response, a customer workshop, or a roadmap review; A collaborative mindset: you bring structure, curiosity, and follow-through; Willingness to travel occasionally for customer sites, team meet-ups and events.
Then "Why Inriver 💙" paragraph: At Inriver, you'll join a global company with a product at the center - and people who genuinely care about building something meaningful together. Here you'll get: A role with real visibility: to customers, to partners, and to the product roadmap; The chance to shape how B2B Manufacturing customers experience Inriver, hands-on; A supportive team culture with space to learn, lead, and grow; A workplace where your voice matters and your work makes a difference. We're serious about building great products and we also care about enjoying the ride.
Then pay: "The estimated pay range for this role is 160,000-185,000 USD as base salary per annum. The actual base pay for the successful candidate in this role is dependent upon many factors such as location, transferable or job-related skills, work experience, relevant training, business needs. All full time US employees are eligible to participate in inriver's comprehensive benefit package which include medical, dental, vision, 401K, STD, LTD. The ideal candidate is located in the following states; Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina."
Then "Ready to apply? 📬 ..." which is application instructions, we need to remove.
Then final paragraph about company info: "Inriver is a global leader in Product Information Management (PIM), helping more than 1,600 brands create outstanding product experiences. Behind our success is a team of talented, collaborative, and passionate people who enjoy solving complex challenges and making an impact for customers around the world. Headquartered in Malmö, Sweden, we have colleagues across multiple locations globally, bringing together diverse perspectives, expertise, and experiences. For more information, visit www.inriver.com or follow us on LinkedIn." This is generic boilerplate; we can drop as it's not specific to role? It's about company but maybe considered boilerplate. The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This final paragraph is not exactly boilerplate but could be considered generic company description. Might be okay to keep? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. This paragraph is substantive about company but not role-specific. Might be okay to keep as part of About the role? However we already have About the role section. Could incorporate some of that into About the role? The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine company description into About the role or Why Inriver. But we already have Why Inriver section with bullet points. The final paragraph is more generic; could be omitted as not specific to role? It's about the company but not role-specific. Might be considered boilerplate? Not sure. Safer to keep it as part of About the role? But we already have About the role content from earlier. Could add a sentence about company being global leader in PIM etc. That is substantive. Let's include it in About the role.
Now schedule: Not mentioned. No schedule info. So we should not create Schedule section.
Benefits: Mentioned: "All full time US employees are eligible to participate in inriver's comprehensive benefit package which include medical, dental, vision, 401K, STD, LTD." That's benefits. So we need Benefits section.
Pay: Yes we have pay range.
Now sections: About the role (including company description), Responsibilities (What you’ll do), Requirements/Qualifications/Skills? The posting has "What you’ll bring" which includes experience, skills, mindset. Could split into Requirements (experience), Qualifications (maybe education not mentioned), Skills (specific abilities). But we can combine into Requirements and Skills. However instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have Requirements (including experience, skills, mindset) and maybe Skills separate? But we can just have Requirements and Skills as separate if content distinct. Let's see: "What you’ll bring" includes experience, comfort presenting, builder's mindset, experience within B2B Manufacturing, familiarity with platform extensibility, strong communication skills, collaborative mindset, willingness to travel. That's a mix of experience and skills. Could treat as Requirements (experience) and Skills (abilities). But we don't have separate Qualifications (like degree). So we can have Requirements (experience) and Skills (abilities). Or we could have just one section "Requirements and Skills". But instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose which to include. Let's include Requirements and Skills.
Now we need to extract content for each.
About the role: combine initial paragraph + Why you'll love this role bullet points + company description paragraph.
But we must not repeat job title as heading. Already not.
We need to format as HTML:
About the role
then... maybe with
- for lists. We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep bullet points as list items. Let's craft.
