Highway Maintenance Specialist (Limited Duration)

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 with real content. We need to extract content from posting. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. We need to include sections: maybe "About the role" (intro paragraph), "Responsibilities" (list of duties), "Requirements" (minimum qualifications), "Qualifications" maybe special qualifications? Could combine. "Skills" maybe "What We’d Like To See". "Benefits" from "What’s In It For You". "Pay" from salary range and PERS note. "Schedule" maybe not present; there is mention of flexible work schedules but not explicit schedule. Might not include schedule if not specific. We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". We have salary range specifics. We must remove boilerplate: navigation, EEO, legal, etc. Also remove application instructions, "How To Apply", "Additional Information" etc. Also remove "Initial Posting Date", "Application Deadline", "Agency", etc? Those are metadata; we can fold minor metadata into short p or drop. Probably we can include a short p with posting date and deadline? The instruction: "do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it." So we can include a short p with Initial Posting Date and Application Deadline maybe. But we could drop them. Safer to include a short p with that info. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Thus we need to include: - A short p maybe: "Initial posting date: 09/28/2026. Application deadline: 10/12/2026." Or similar. - About the role: paragraph(s) from "The Role" section: "Do you want to use your skills to make a difference? Join our hardworking Bend maintenance crew and help keep Oregon’s roads and travelers safe! As part of our team, you will operate equipment necessary to maintain and repair roadways, highways, bridges and structures. You will also help with emergency cleanup and traffic control after storms, spills, incidents and more! This is a limited duration appointment that is expected to end after approximately one year or before. Limited duration appointments are benefits eligible and have a designated maximum length of service. This position has the potential to become permanent. We provide a safe and reliable multimodal transportation system that connects people and helps Oregon's communities and economy thrive. We encourage people from all backgrounds and abilities to apply for our positions." We should keep that as prose in

. - Responsibilities: list from "A Day In The Life". That's a long list of duties. We'll put each as

under

. Must preserve all details. Let's extract bullet points: - Assist with weather related emergencies and operate snowplows, deicer trucks and other equipment to clear snow from roadways. - Operate a variety of heavy and light equipment and tools to maintain and repair various surfaces. - Perform minor surface repairs including pothole and concrete patching and small inlay work. - Maintain and repair fences, guardrails, concrete barriers and milepost markers. - Maintain drainage systems, dig and clean ditches and repair culverts, inlets and erosion. - Clear debris, clear brush, mow grass and spray roadside vegetation. - Maintain wooded areas which includes replanting, pruning, thinning or trimming trees, shrubs and groundcover. - Service and repair tools and motorized equipment. - Perform minor maintenance including janitorial work, landscaping, painting and light carpentry. - Exposure to noise, extreme heights, all weather conditions, heavy equipment, pesticides and hazardous waste materials is expected. - Must be able to move around rough terrain, bend and stoop for extended periods and may need to lift up to 60 pounds. - May need to be available after hours, on weekends and holidays for emergency, on call and weather related purposes. - To request a copy of the position description, which includes all duties and working conditions, please email ODOTRecruitment@odot.oregon.gov. (This is more like instruction; maybe we should drop as it's application instruction? It's a request for position description; could be considered part of responsibilities? It's more admin. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not a duty. Probably drop.) We'll keep the duties up to the lift requirement. - Requirements: Minimum Qualifications: "One year of experience performing basic highway maintenance work. OR Two years of general landscaping, maintenance, mechanical, farming, logging, and/or construction experience or training." We'll put as
• ... OR ...
maybe two items. - Qualifications: Special Qualifications: CDL-A with tanker endorsement etc, ability to acquire permit, etc. Also valid US driver license, acceptable driving record, pre-employment checks, FMCSA note, response time requirement. We'll include as list. - Skills: "What We’d Like To See": list of desired attributes: Experience in road maintenance, construction or in a maintenance training program such as ODOT High School to Highway program, ODOT/ODF Fire and Ice program, Job Corps, etc. Experience working on a team. Experience prioritizing safety. Winter maintenance experience such as sanding, deicing or using snow blowers or snowplows. Experience communicating verbally and in writing. - Benefits: "What’s In It For You": "Work/life balance, 11 paid holidays a year, flexible work schedules, paid leave and so much more. Learn more about working at the Oregon Department of Transportation and the benefits we offer." Also mention "Comprehensive and equitable base salary offer within the listed range." That's more pay. Also "Public Service Loan Forgiveness opportunity!" Also maybe "Subscribe to receive weekly email notifications!" That's not a benefit. We'll keep benefits: work/life balance, 11 paid holidays, flexible work schedules, paid leave, Public Service Loan Forgiveness opportunity. Also maybe "Learn more about working at ODOT and the benefits we offer." That's vague. - Pay: Salary range $4,312 - $5,988 (non-PERS monthly). Note about PERS increase 6.95% if PERS member. Also mention "Through an equal pay assessment, we will determine the salary offer using the information you provide..." That's procedural; maybe include as note. - Schedule: Not explicitly given; there is "flexible work schedules" but not specific schedule. Might not include schedule section. We must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Benefits are stated. Pay is stated. Schedule not explicitly stated; we have "flexible work schedules" but that's a benefit, not schedule. So we omit Schedule. Now produce HTML fragment: We'll start with a short p for metadata: maybe

Initial posting date: 09/28/2026. Application deadline: 10/12/2026.

Make sure not to repeat job title. Check for any duplicated lines: we must avoid repeating same content. Now craft content precisely. About the role paragraph: combine sentences. Let's write: "Do you want to use your skills to make a difference? Join our hardworking Bend maintenance crew and help keep Oregon’s roads and travelers safe! As part of our team, you will operate equipment necessary to maintain and repair roadways, highways, bridges and structures. You will also help with emergency cleanup and traffic control after storms, spills, incidents and more! This is a limited duration appointment expected to end after approximately one year or before. Limited duration appointments are benefits eligible and have a designated maximum length of service. This position has the potential to become permanent. We provide a safe and reliable multimodal transportation system that connects people and helps Oregon's communities and economy thrive. We encourage people from all backgrounds and abilities to apply for our positions." That's fine. Responsibilities list: include each duty as li.

That's all.

We'll phrase as two li. Special Qualifications: need to capture CDL-A with tanker endorsement, no air brake restrictions, no 5th wheel restrictions, no manual transmission restrictions, OR ability to acquire class A commercial learner permit within 60 days of hire and CDL-A with tanker endorsement and restrictions removed within six months of hire (ODOT will cover training costs).

If you are already a participating PERS member or become PERS eligible, the range increases by 6.95%. Salary offers are determined through an equal pay assessment based on the information you provide in your application." That's fine. Now produce HTML. Check no markdown fences. Just raw
