- Intro: "IT Software Development Internship Scot Forge Company is looking to hire one IT Software Development Intern for the Summer of 2027 in-person at the corporate facility in Spring Grove, IL. This internship will provide exposure to a collaborative IT team supporting a manufacturing environment through software development, integrations, and business applications."
That's about the role.
- "Potential Projects and Tasks Examples Work may include self-directed projects with mentor check-ins, pairing with an owner, or shadowing to learn a system. Some examples of work include the following." Then bullet list:
- Participating in the design and development of application backends with integrations to other systems such as REST APIs or webhooks
- Building components of business-facing frontend applications for edge, mobile, and web devices
- Participating in manufacturing digital-twin projects with the OT and Ignition teams
- Working with the ERP development team to re-imagine user experiences from web to mobile platforms
- Developing and integrating prompts, skills, and agents for generative AI with applications and systems
That's responsibilities.
- "Qualifications: Pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field Rising Sophomore or higher at the start of the internship"
That's qualifications.
- "Required Skills and Project Experience Programming in an object-oriented language (i.e., C# or Python) Working with Git-based version control tools Interfacing with other systems, such as REST APIs or relational databases (for example, Oracle SQL or Microsoft SQL)"
That's required skills.
- "Preferred Skills and Project Experience Designing frontend user interfaces or developing web-based applications Project scope and design, including data models, system architecture, and task refinement CI/CD fundamentals, Docker, application packaging, or other deployment concepts Building APIs or webhooks, including thread-safe or parallel processing where needed Working with generative AI tools (for example, Claude Code, Codex, Grok Build, or Antigravity)"
That's preferred skills.
- "Scot Forge Internship Program Offers: Paid Compensation Professional Career Development and Mentoring Company Sponsored Intern Events Cross-Discipline Intern Project Meaningful Project Work Real World Problem Solving Collaborative Work Environment Profit-Sharing Bonus"
That's benefits.
- Additional Requirements: "Must be authorized to work anywhere in the U.S. without sponsorship Must be able to pass a 90 day head hair drug test today"
- "Review of applications will begin September 28th and continue until the position is filled." (application instruction? Might be considered application instructions; we should remove application instructions per instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should drop that line.
- "The estimated pay range for this position is the lowest and highest range we in good faith believe we would pay for this role at the time of this posting. We ultimately may pay more or less than the posted range, and the range may be modified in the future. The actual base pay offered to a candidate will depend on various factors including but not limited to relevant skills, experience, qualifications, education, certifications, seniority, geographic location and prevailing minimum wage, performance, shift, travel requirements, and business or organizational needs."
This is pay info but vague; they say "estimated pay range ... lowest and highest range we in good faith believe we would pay". No actual numbers given. According to rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. They didn't give actual numbers; they gave a statement about range but no numbers. Is that considered stating them? It says "estimated pay range for this position is the lowest and highest range we in good faith believe we would pay for this role at the time of this posting." That's still not a concrete range; it's vague. The rule says: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. This is akin to "not specified" or "varies". So we should not create a Pay section.
- Benefits: they list a comprehensive package: Medical, Vision, Dental, Hearing, Life (Basic & AD&D), Disability (STD & LTD), 401K Plan with match, Profit Sharing, Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), Tax Savings (FSA & HAS), Vacation Time, Paid Time Off, and Paid Holidays. Also earlier they listed "Paid Compensation Professional Career Development and Mentoring Company Sponsored Intern Events Cross-Discipline Intern Project Meaningful Project Work Real World Problem Solving Collaborative Work Environment Profit-Sharing Bonus". So we have benefits content.
- Schedule: Not mentioned. So no schedule section.
- Additional Requirements: Must be authorized to work anywhere in the U.S. without sponsorship; Must be able to pass a 90 day head hair drug test today. Those could go under Requirements or Qualifications? Probably under Requirements (or Additional Requirements). We have a Qualifications section already for degree and year. Could add a "Requirements" section for work authorization and drug test. Or we could incorporate into Qualifications. But we have both Qualifications and Required Skills sections. The instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can have Requirements separate from Qualifications. Qualifications likely refers to education/year. Requirements could be work authorization, drug test, maybe also required skills? But we already have Skills section. Let's follow typical: Qualifications = education/year. Requirements = legal/work auth etc. Skills = required and preferred skills.
Thus sections:
- About the role (intro paragraph)
- Responsibilities (list of projects/tasks)
- Qualifications (education/year)
- Skills (required and preferred skills) maybe split into Required Skills and Preferred Skills? But we only have one Skills heading allowed. Could combine both required and preferred under Skills with subheadings? Not allowed to add extra headings besides those listed. Could use

Could combine both required and preferred under Skills with subheadings? Not allowed to add extra headings besides those listed. Could use - and differentiate within items. Could separate required and preferred as separate lists but still under same Skills heading. That's okay.
- Benefits (list of benefits)
We should not include Pay or Schedule.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, drug-free workplace statement etc. Remove those.
We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include the details about paid compensation, professional career development, mentoring, company sponsored intern events, cross-discipline intern project, meaningful project work, real world problem solving, collaborative work environment, profit-sharing bonus, plus the comprehensive benefits list.
We also need to include the location: Spring Grove, IL, in-person for Summer 2027.
We need to include that it's one IT Software Development Intern.
We need to include that it's in-person at corporate facility.
We need to include that it provides exposure to collaborative IT team supporting manufacturing environment through software development, integrations, and business applications.
We need to include the potential projects list.
We need to include qualifications: pursuing bachelor's degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or related field; Rising Sophomore or higher at start.
We need to include required skills: programming in OO language (C# or Python); working with Git-based version control; interfacing with other systems such as REST APIs or relational databases (Oracle SQL or Microsoft SQL).
We need to include preferred skills: designing frontend UIs or developing web-based apps; project scope and design including data models, system architecture, task refinement; CI/CD fundamentals, Docker, application packaging, or other deployment concepts; building APIs or webhooks including thread-safe or parallel processing; working with generative AI tools (Claude Code, Codex, Grok Build, or Antigravity).
We need to include additional requirements: must be authorized to work anywhere in US without sponsorship; must be able to pass a 90 day head hair drug test today.
We need to exclude application instruction line about review of applications begin September 28th.
We need to exclude EEO statement, drug-free workplace, etc.
We need to exclude the note about pay not considered wages until earned etc. That's boilerplate legal; remove.
We need to exclude the statement about estimated pay range being lowest and highest range we in good faith believe... that's vague; we should not create Pay section, but we might still mention that pay is paid? The internship offers "Paid Compensation" as part of benefits. So we can mention that it's paid but not give range. That's fine under Benefits.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown.
