We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have a description: "Why join OTTO Engineering?" then description. Then responsibilities list. Then "About you - What you’ll bring to the table:" is qualifications/requirements. Then "What OTTO offers for this specific position:" includes pay range, profit sharing, vacation, benefits list. So we need sections: About the role (maybe the introductory paragraph), Responsibilities (list of duties), Requirements (or Qualifications/Skills), Benefits, Pay, Schedule? Schedule not mentioned; only "Required to work outside of the normal office hours including “on-call” time" - that's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section with that detail. Benefits: list of benefits (health, dental, vision, 401k, life insurance, disability, holidays, picnics, parties). Pay: hiring range $22-28 per hour, profit sharing bonus details. Also mention vacation accrual.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Use for section headings. Use
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. So remove the Equal Opportunity Employer paragraph and the accommodation request etc. Also remove the link to career page? That's application instructions; we should remove application instructions. So remove the "To review all of OTTO’s available opportunities..." line and the link. Also remove the unsolicited resumes note.
We need to include all substantive info: company description, responsibilities list (many bullet-like sentences), requirements (experience, driver's license, etc.), benefits list, pay range, profit sharing, vacation, schedule (on-call). Also mention profit sharing details.
We must not create sections with filler text. So only include sections where we have content.

Requirements
or Qualifications
. Use Requirements.
Then benefits: list from "What OTTO offers for this specific position:" includes profit sharing bonus, vacation, benefits list.
We need separate sections: Pay, Benefits, Schedule maybe.
Pay: "Target hourly hiring range: $22.00 to $28.00 per hour, based on qualifications and experience." Also profit sharing details: "Profit Sharing Bonus - OTTO believes that it’s fair to share the profits that the employees help to make; profit sharing is distributed to employees twice a year. OTTO’s profit sharing plan is paid at the discretion of the company and is not a guaranteed bonus or any part of a compensation plan."
We could combine Pay and Profit Sharing under Pay section, or separate. Since profit sharing is part of compensation, we can include in Pay section.
Benefits: list:
- Health: Medical Insurance- HMO Plan Standard PPO Plan Enhanced PPO Plan High Deducible PPO Plan FSA, LFSA, and HSA
- Dental Insurance- Base Plan Buy-Up Plan
- Vision Insurance
- 401(k) with a company match

Also vacation: "Vacation: five days after 30 days of employment and 80 hours at 1 year - vacation time is earned on the anniversary date."
We could put vacation under Benefits or separate. Since it's a benefit, include in Benefits.
Schedule: "Required to work outside of the normal office hours including “on-call” time" (already in requirements). But we could also put schedule section with that detail. However we already have it in requirements; but we could avoid duplication. The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; we can keep it in requirements. No need separate schedule unless we want. But we can include schedule section if we have content not duplicated elsewhere. Since it's already in requirements, we could keep it there. But we could also move it to schedule and remove from requirements to avoid duplication. However we must preserve all info; moving is fine as long as not lost. Let's keep schedule separate: "Required to work outside of the normal office hours including “on-call” time". Then remove from requirements.
Thus requirements list will exclude that line.
Now we need to ensure we don't create sections with filler text. All sections have content.
