Head of Infrastructure (Remote)

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "Job Details" description. We need to use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections when posting has real specific content. We have content for Responsibilities (Key Responsibilities). We have Minimum Qualifications (Qualifications). We have maybe Skills? Not explicit separate; but we could treat "Minimum Qualifications" as Qualifications. We have Pay: "Cubic Pay Range $165,000.00 - $190,000.00* + benefits." So we can include Pay section. Benefits: mention "+ benefits" but not details; we should not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It only says "+ benefits" vague; not specific. According to rule: never create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It only says "+ benefits" which is not specific; we should not create Benefits section. Schedule: not mentioned. About the role: we have a paragraph at start describing role: "The Head of Infrastructure & Platforms is responsible for ..." That could be About the role. So we can include About the role section with that prose. Responsibilities: we have many bullet points under Key Responsibilities; we need to convert to

• . Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications list; we can put as
  • . Skills: maybe not separate; we could omit Skills section if not explicit. Could also include Skills from qualifications but better to follow rule: only include when posting has real specific content for it. There's no separate Skills heading; we could omit Skills. Pay: include Pay section with the range. Benefits: not include. Schedule: not include. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: we need to strip out things like "Business Unit Cubic Corporation Company Details", "Explore more on Cubic.com.", "The description provided above is not intended to be an exhaustive list..." etc. Also remove EEO etc. Also remove "Worker Type Employee", "We are committed to creating an inclusive workplace..." etc. Also remove the note about pay range being guideline etc? That is part of Pay details; we can keep the pay range but maybe discard the extra explanation? The rule: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the pay range statement, but we can also keep the explanatory sentences? They are substantive? They are about compensation guidelines; they are part of posting. Should we keep them? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." But we must preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the pay range and maybe the note that it's a guideline etc. However that could be considered boilerplate? It's still part of the posting. I'd keep it as a paragraph under Pay section. Similarly, we need to keep the initial paragraph about Cubic company details? That's "Business Unit Cubic Corporation Company Details When you join Cubic..." That's generic company description; maybe considered boilerplate? It's not specific to the role. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." This company description might be considered boilerplate but it's not legal/EEO. It's generic about Cubic. Might be considered not substantive for the job? The rule says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The company description is substantive? It's about the company, not the role. Might be considered boilerplate but not explicitly listed. I'd err on side of removing it as it's not specific to the job. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." It doesn't say to remove generic company overview. However earlier: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." The company overview could be considered not substantive for the role. I'd keep it maybe under About the role? Actually About the role should be about the role, not company. Could include a brief company description as part of About the role? Might be okay. Better to include About the role section with the paragraph that describes the role responsibilities (the first paragraph after Job Details). Let's extract that: "The Head of Infrastructure & Platforms is responsible for the operational leadership, delivery, and continuous improvement of the organization's global infrastructure and platform services. The role manages multiple technical disciplines, including cloud infrastructure, enterprise networking, identity services, endpoint management, server and hosting platforms, and related infrastructure operations. The postholder ensures that these services are secure, reliable, supportable, and delivered in accordance with approved business, financial, security, and compliance requirements. Working within the direction set by senior IT leadership, the role establishes departmental objectives, operating procedures, work plans, and priorities; manages the department budget; allocates resources; and delegates assignments across experienced technical professionals and, where applicable, subordinate managers. The successful candidate will combine effective people leadership with broad technical knowledge and sound tactical decision-making. The role is expected to resolve complex operational issues, deliver larger infrastructure projects, and translate approved technology plans into practical, measurable outcomes." That's substantive. Now Responsibilities: we have many bullet points under Key Responsibilities with subheadings. We need to turn each bullet into
  • . Should we preserve subheadings? Probably we can just list each bullet as
  • . The subheadings like "Departmental Leadership & Operational Planning" could be kept as part of the
  • text. We'll keep them. Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications list; each line as
  • . Pay: include the pay range and maybe the explanatory sentences. We'll put as

    . We must not include any markdown fences. Output only HTML fragment. Let's craft:
