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 that have real specific content.
We need to parse the posting.
Key sections:
- "What Your Job Will Be Like": description of role, responsibilities. Could be "About the role" or "Responsibilities". The instruction: use
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content.
We need to parse the posting.
Key sections:
- "What Your Job Will Be Like": description of role, responsibilities. Could be "About the role" or "Responsibilities". The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which headings to use based on content.
We have:
- "What Your Job Will Be Like" includes description of tasks: Conduct independent research..., Design..., Analyze..., Collaborate..., Prepare..., work full time onsite.
That's responsibilities. Could use Responsibilities
with - list.
- "Salary Range" section: talk about pay structure, competitive pay rates, based on earned credit hours, classification, degree level, pay rate determined during hire process, link to chart. This is Pay info. So we can have
Pay
with describing.
- "Qualifications We Require": list of requirements: Must attend Alabama A&M Fall 2026 Career Week Events, Earned bachelor's degree, Currently attending and enrolled full time in spring term preceding internship (or scheduled to graduate in spring) in accredited science, engineering, or math graduate program, Minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0/4.0, Ability to work up to 40 hours per week during the summer, Ability to secure and maintain a U.S. security clearance which requires U.S. citizenship. Also note about if not started grad program apply to undergrad intern.
We can put under
Requirements
(or Qualifications). The instruction includes both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. We need to decide. Since they label "Qualifications We Require" and "Qualifications We Desire". Could treat "Requirements" for mandatory, and "Qualifications" for desired? But they said use headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can have both Requirements and Qualifications sections.
Thus:
- Requirements
with list of mandatory items.
- Qualifications
with list of desired qualifications: Currently pursuing a degree in specific fields, Strong analytical..., Proficiency in at least one programming language, Excellent communication skills, Passion for research...
- "About Our Team": description of Sandia, START Institute. Could be "About the role"? Actually "About Our Team" is about the team. Could be "About the role"? Not exactly. Could be "About the role" maybe not. Could be "About the team" but not in list. Could omit? The instruction says include a section ONLY when posting has real specific content. We have content about team. Could map to "About the role"? Not ideal. Maybe we can use "About the role" for description of role and team? But we already used Responsibilities for job tasks. Could use "About the role" for overview of role and team. However we already have responsibilities. Could we combine? The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine "About the role" and "Responsibilities"? But they said use headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities... So we could have both but maybe we can skip About the role if we already have Responsibilities covering tasks. However the "About Our Team" is not exactly responsibilities. Could be considered "About the role" (the role within team). Could put that under About the role.
But we also have "About Sandia" later: description of Sandia, benefits, flexible work arrangements, etc. That could be "Benefits"? Actually benefits section includes generous vacation, medical, 401k, learning opportunities, relocation assistance, etc. Also flexible work arrangements. So we can create Benefits section.
Also there is "Security Clearance" section: details about clearance, drug test, background review, etc. That could be part of Requirements? But it's more about clearance requirement. Could be part of Requirements (security clearance). Already we have ability to secure and maintain clearance in Requirements. The extra details about drug test etc could be omitted as boilerplate? It's security clearance details; maybe we keep as part of Requirements? But we should not repeat. The instruction: remove EEO/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Security clearance details maybe not boilerplate but specific to role. However it's quite detailed; we could keep a short paragraph under Requirements or maybe a separate section? Not in list headings. Could incorporate into Requirements.
Also there is "Posting Duration": about posting open for minimum three days etc. That's metadata; we can drop.
"Job ID", "Job Family", etc drop.
"EEO" drop.
"NNSA Requirements For MedPEDs" maybe drop as legal/boilerplate.
Thus final sections:
- Responsibilities (h3) with ul list of tasks.
- Requirements (h3) with ul list of mandatory qualifications.
- Qualifications (h3) with ul list of desired qualifications.
- Pay (h3) with p describing pay structure and link.
- Benefits (h3) with p describing benefits: generous vacation, strong medical, competitive 401k, learning opportunities, relocation assistance, flexible work arrangements (9/80, 4/10 compressed workweeks, part-time, telecommuting). Also mention "These benefits vary by job classification." Could include.
- About the role? Could combine About Our Team and About Sandia into a section maybe "About the role" or "About the team". Since we already have Responsibilities, maybe we can have "About the role" summarizing the role and team. But we already have responsibilities; maybe we can skip About the role and just have Responsibilities. However the instruction says include a section ONLY when posting has real specific content. We have content about team and Sandia; we could put that under "About the role". Let's do that: About the role
with p describing Sandia National Laboratories, START Institute, mission, etc.
But we must avoid duplication: we already have responsibilities list; About the role can be a brief overview.
Thus final HTML fragment:
About the role

Make sure not to include any headings with empty content.
Now extract precise content.
