We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes description (primary function, performance shall include...). That's responsibilities. Also mandatory experience, education, clearance, certifications, other requirements: these could be Qualifications or Requirements. Benefits are given. No Pay or Schedule info. So we will have sections: About the role (maybe a brief summary), Responsibilities, Qualifications (or Requirements), Benefits. We need to decide headings: Use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; we can drop them or put in a short

    . Probably we can include a short

    with the requisition ID. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. We need to include all substantive info: The description about primary function, primary support, day-to-day support, etc. Then list of performance items (many bullet-like sentences). We need to turn those into

    • . Must preserve all details. We also have Mandatory Experience, Education, Clearance, Certifications, Other Requirements, Benefits. We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe a short paragraph summarizing primary function). Responsibilities (list of performance items). Qualifications (maybe combine mandatory experience, education, clearance, certifications, other requirements). Benefits (list). Could also have Requirements section separate from Qualifications but we can combine. We must not create Pay or Schedule sections. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to ensure we don't create headings with empty content. Let's extract the responsibilities list from "Performance Shall Include" onward until before "Mandatory Experience". That is a long list of sentences each starting with a verb. We'll turn each into
    • . We need to preserve the exact wording? Probably keep as is. Let's copy the responsibilities text: "Perform oversight of the development, implementation and evaluation of information system security program policy; special emphasis placed upon integration of existing SAP network infrastructures.Develop and oversee operational information systems security implementation policy and guidelines of network security, based upon the Risk Management Framework (RMF) with emphasize on Joint.Special Access Program Implementation Guide (JSIG) authorization process.Advise customer on Risk Management Framework (RMF) assessment and authorization issues.Perform risk assessments and make recommendations to DoD agency customers.Advise government program managers on security testing methodologies and processes.Evaluate authorization documentation and provide written recommendations for authorization to government PMs.Develop and maintain a formal Information Systems Security Program.Ensure that all IAOs, network administrators, and other cyber security personnel receive the necessary technical and security training to carry out their duties.Develop, review, endorse, and recommend action by the AO or DAO of system assessment documentation.Ensure approved procedures are in place for clearing, sanitizing, and destroying various types of hardware and media.Develop and execute security assessment plans that include verification that the features and assurances required for each protection level functioning.Maintain a and/or applicable repository for all system authorization documentation and modifications.

The text currently has no clear delimiters besides periods. We'll split at each sentence that starts with a verb (Perform, Develop, Advise, etc.) but some sentences are concatenated without spaces after periods. We'll need to insert splits manually? Could just keep as one big paragraph? But requirement: Use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to make a list. We can approximate by splitting at each period that is followed by a capital letter (or after a period and space). However the text has missing spaces after some periods (e.g., "infrastructures.Develop"). We'll need to add a space for splitting but we must not invent content. We can still keep the text as is but we could treat each sentence as an item even if missing space; we can still split by period and then trim. The resulting items may have missing space at start of next sentence but that's okay as it's original text just missing a space. We'll produce items like "Perform oversight of the development, implementation and evaluation of information system security program policy; special emphasis placed upon integration of existing SAP network infrastructures." etc. Let's attempt to split manually by identifying each distinct duty: 1. Perform oversight of the development, implementation and evaluation of information system security program policy; special emphasis placed upon integration of existing SAP network infrastructures. 2. Develop and oversee operational information systems security implementation policy and guidelines of network security, based upon the Risk Management Framework (RMF) with emphasize on Joint.Special Access Program Implementation Guide (JSIG) authorization process. 3. Advise customer on Risk Management Framework (RMF) assessment and authorization issues. 4. Perform risk assessments and make recommendations to DoD agency customers. 5. Advise government program managers on security testing methodologies and processes. 6. Evaluate authorization documentation and provide written recommendations for authorization to government PMs. 7. Develop and maintain a formal Information Systems Security Program. 8. Ensure that all IAOs, network administrators, and other cyber security personnel receive the necessary technical and security training to carry out their duties. 9.

Ensure proper protection or corrective measures have been taken when an incident or vulnerability has been discovered within a system. 15. Ensure that data ownership and responsibilities are established for each authorization boundary, to include accountability, access rights, and special handling requirements. 16. Ensure development and implementation of an information security education, training, and awareness program, to include attending, monitoring, and presenting local cyber security training. 17.
