GSE & Tools Customer Solutions Manager
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." That suggests those are the allowed headings. Probably we should map content to those headings. So we need to decide which sections we have content for: About the role (Job Summary), Responsibilities (Primary + Additional), Requirements (Qualified Experience And Training), Qualifications (Education, Experience, Licensure/Certifications maybe overlapping), Skills (Qualified Skills + Preferred Specific GSE & Tools Expertise + Communication Skills + Technical Systems Proficiency). Benefits, Pay, Schedule not present -> omit.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc.
We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all details from the posting within those sections.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, accommodation notice, Know Your Rights, Pay Transparency, etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
Let's extract content.

Physical Requirements: list.
We need to decide where to place Physical Requirements. Not in allowed headings; maybe we can include as a separate section with h3 "Physical Requirements". The instruction says 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 are typical. Safer to include Physical Requirements as a section with h3? Might be considered extra but okay. However they said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Could combine Physical Requirements into Requirements or Qualifications? Probably better to include as its own section but maybe not needed. The instruction: "use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It doesn't say you cannot use other headings, but the examples are those. I'd stick to those headings only. So we need to map Physical Requirements into either Requirements or Qualifications. Probably Requirements includes experience, education, etc. Physical Requirements could be part of Requirements. We'll add a subsection under Requirements as a - list.
Similarly, we might include "Travel Required" etc under Requirements.
Thus sections:
- About the role (Job Description + Job Summary)
- Responsibilities (Primary + Additional)
- Requirements (Qualified Experience And Training + Education, Experience, Licensure/Certifications, Travel Required, Citizenship, Clearance, Physical Requirements)
- Qualifications (maybe we can combine Education/Experience etc but we already used Requirements for that. Qualifications could be for "Qualified Skills" etc. But we have Skills section for that. So Qualifications maybe for "Education, Experience, Licensure/Certifications"? However we already used Requirements for that. To avoid duplication, we need to decide mapping.
Let's define:
About the role: Job Description paragraph + Job Summary.
Responsibilities: Primary Responsibilities + Additional Responsibilities.
Requirements: Qualified Experience And Training (the bullet-like sentences) + Education + Experience (Required + Preferred) + Licensure/Certifications + Travel Required + Citizenship + Clearance.
Qualifications: maybe not needed if we covered in
