We need to output HTML fragment only, with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Equal Opportunity Employer" etc. Also remove contact info? The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it." Also "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should drop the "For more information, please reach out to our Human Strategist Amy Maxwell at amy.maxwell@sixgen.io." That's application instruction/contact. Also drop "Equal Opportunity Employer ..." section. We need to preserve all substantive information: location, job type, clearance required, about SIXGEN, position overview, responsibilities list, required qualifications, preferred qualifications, compensation & benefits (including salary range). Also maybe include "Compensation & Benefits" as Benefits and Pay sections? The instruction says use headings for Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have compensation & benefits paragraph includes salary range and benefits list. We can split: Benefits section for benefits list, Pay section for salary range. No schedule info given, so omit Schedule heading. We also need sections: About the role (maybe position overview?), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe required qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe preferred qualifications?), Skills (maybe from preferred qualifications?), Benefits, Pay. We need to decide mapping. We have: About SIXGEN (company overview) and Position Overview (role overview). Could combine into About the role. Use

About the role

with paragraphs containing both. Responsibilities: list. Requirements: maybe "Required Qualifications". Use

Requirements

. Qualifications: maybe "Preferred Qualifications". Use

Qualifications

. Skills: maybe from preferred qualifications list like problem-solving, systems engineering, designing secure systems, etc. Could put under Skills. Benefits: list of benefits. Pay: salary range. We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". We have specific salary range: $135,000 to $160,000 per year. Good. We must not include "Flexible and remote work policies for eligible positions." That's a benefit, include. We must not include "Flexible PTO and holiday schedule." That's also benefit. We must not include "Employer-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and their families." etc. We must not include "401(k) with a 4% employer contribution." etc. We must not include "Professional development reimbursement for training, certifications, and education." All good. Now we need to ensure we don't include duplicated lines. The responsibilities list has each sentence separated by periods but no commas? Actually they are concatenated without spaces? The text: "Plan, implement, upgrade, and monitor security measures to protect computer networks and information systems.Ensure appropriate security controls are implemented to safeguard digital assets and critical infrastructure.Respond to cybersecurity incidents, security breaches, and malware events.Apply cybersecurity policies, principles, and best practices across IT and cybersecurity services.Develop and design security solutions that maintain the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of enterprise information.Identify, plan, and document improvements to existing security controls.Develop recommendations and courses of action (COAs) to address complex cybersecurity challenges.Interpret cybersecurity requirements and assist with cybersecurity and IT budget planning.Plan and coordinate the installation of new or modified security hardware, operating systems, and software.Support Cybersecurity Vulnerability Management by assessing, tracking, and implementing required system and network remediation efforts.Guide the implementation of cybersecurity operational processes and governance to maintain an effective security program." We need to split into list items. Each sentence ends with a period. We'll split accordingly. Now required qualifications: "Minimum 5 years of experience in cybersecurity or information assurance.Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Computer Engineering, Information Technology, or a related technical discipline.Active TS/SCI with CI Polygraph.Experience with the Risk Management Framework (RMF).Active DoD 8570 IAM Level II certification or the ability to obtain one within 60 days, including one of the following:CAPCASP+ CECISMCISSP (or Associate)GSLCCCISO" We need to format as list items. Preferred qualifications: "Experience with DoD cybersecurity policies and compliance requirements.Experience using Xacta 360.Experience with eMASS.Familiarity with:AWSACASVMware vCenterWSUSSTIGsIAVAsStrong problem-solving and systems engineering skills.Experience designing and building secure systems and network architectures." We need to parse: there are some missing spaces after colons. We'll just keep as is but maybe split by periods. However some items lack periods. We'll treat each sentence separated by period. Let's add periods where missing? But we must not invent content. We can keep as is but split by periods where present. The string: "Experience with DoD cybersecurity policies and compliance requirements.Experience using Xacta 360.Experience with eMASS.Familiarity with:AWSACASVMware vCenterWSUSSTIGsIAVAsStrong problem-solving and systems engineering skills.Experience designing and building secure systems and network architectures." We see after "Familiarity with:" there is no space before list; but we can keep as one item: "Familiarity with:AWSACASVMware vCenterWSUSSTIGsIAVAsStrong problem-solving and systems engineering skills." That seems messy. Better to split by periods: we have: - Experience with DoD cybersecurity policies and compliance requirements. - Experience using Xacta 360. - Experience with eMASS. - Familiarity with:AWSACASVMware vCenterWSUSSTIGsIAVAsStrong problem-solving and systems engineering skills. - Experience designing and building secure systems and network architectures. The last item lacks a period at end but okay. We could further split the familiarity item into separate items but that would be inventing detail. We'll keep as one. Now benefits list: "Employer-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and their families.Employer-paid short-term disability, long-term disability, and basic life/AD&D insurance.401(k) with a 4% employer contribution.Professional development reimbursement for training, certifications, and education.Flexible and remote work policies for eligible positions.Flexible PTO and holiday schedule." Split by period. Now pay: "Salary range is dependent on experience and can range from $135,000 per year to $160,000 per year." Now location and job type and clearance: we need to include that somewhere. Could be in About the role paragraph or a short

metadata. The instruction: fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. So we can include a short paragraph after the heading About the role maybe: "

Location: Customer Site – Columbia, MD (CANX1) | Job Type: Full Time | Clearance Required: Active TS/SCI with CI Polygraph

" That's minor metadata. Now About the role: combine SIXGEN description and Position Overview. We'll write two paragraphs maybe. Now we must not include any boilerplate like Equal Opportunity Employer. Now output only HTML fragment. Let's craft:

About the role

Location: Customer Site – Columbia, MD (CANX1) | Job Type: Full Time | Clearance Required: Active TS/SCI with CI Polygraph

SIXGEN delivers agile, mission-ready cybersecurity solutions that empower government and critical infrastructure organizations to stay ahead of advanced cyber threats. We combine innovation, deep expertise, and cutting-edge capabilities to uncover vulnerabilities, protect vital systems, and ensure operational superiority in an ever-evolving digital landscape.

SIXGEN is seeking an Information Systems Security Officer (ISSO) - Journeyman to support the USCYBERCOM J6 C4 & Cyber Directorate. The selected candidate will help implement and maintain enterprise cybersecurity programs, ensure compliance with DoD security requirements, and protect critical information systems through effective risk management and security engineering practices.

Responsibilities

  • Plan, implement, upgrade, and monitor security measures to protect computer networks and information systems.
  • Ensure appropriate security controls are implemented to safeguard digital assets and critical infrastructure.
  • Respond to cybersecurity incidents, security breaches, and malware events.
  • Apply cybersecurity policies, principles, and best practices across IT and cybersecurity services.
  • Develop and design security solutions that maintain the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of enterprise information.
  • Identify, plan, and document improvements to existing security controls.
  • Develop recommendations and courses of action (COAs) to address complex cybersecurity challenges.
  • Interpret cybersecurity requirements and assist with cybersecurity and IT budget planning.
  • Plan and coordinate the installation of new or modified security hardware, operating systems, and software.
  • Support Cybersecurity Vulnerability Management by assessing, tracking, and implementing required system and network remediation efforts.
  • Guide the implementation of cybersecurity operational processes and governance to maintain an effective security program.

Requirements

  • Minimum 5 years of experience in cybersecurity or information assurance.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Computer Engineering, Information Technology, or a related technical discipline.
  • Active TS/SCI with CI Polygraph.
  • Experience with the Risk Management Framework (RMF).
  • Active DoD 8570 IAM Level II certification or the ability to obtain one within 60 days, including one of the following: CAP, CASP+, CE, CISM, CISSP (or Associate), GSL, CCISO.

Qualifications

  • Experience with DoD cybersecurity policies and compliance requirements.
  • Experience using Xacta 360.
  • Experience with eMASS.
  • Familiarity with: AWS, ACAS, VMware vCenter, WSUS, STIGs, IAVAs, Strong problem-solving and systems engineering skills.
  • Experience designing and building secure systems and network architectures.

Skills

  • Strong problem-solving and systems engineering skills.
  • Experience designing and building secure systems and network architectures.
But note we duplicated some items from qualifications into skills. Might be redundant. Better to not have Skills section if it's just repeating. The instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Skills into Qualifications. But we already have Qualifications (preferred). Could rename Qualifications to Preferred Qualifications and keep Skills separate? However we have limited distinct content. Perhaps we drop Skills section and keep Qualifications as preferred qualifications. The instruction: use headings for Skills only if posting has real specific content. The posting does have "Strong problem-solving and systems engineering skills." and "Experience designing and building secure systems and network architectures." That's specific. So we could have a Skills section with those two items. But we already have them in Qualifications list; we could move them to Skills and keep Qualifications for other preferred items (experience with DoD policies, Xacta 360, eMASS, familiarity with tools). Let's restructure: Preferred Qualifications (maybe
