IT Systems Administrator, Sr
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include sections only when posting has real, specific content. We have: - About the role: The first paragraph describes the position: "The University of Maryland, Baltimore School of Dentistry (UMSOD) is seeking an IT Systems Administrator, Sr. This position will provide senior-level administration, maintenance, security, and support of the organization's on-premises and cloud infrastructure..." That's about the role. - Responsibilities: The "Primary Duties" section lists many duties. We can put under Responsibilities. - Requirements: Education, Experience, Supervisory Experience, Preferred Experience, Certification/Licensure, Other (substitution). Also Knowledge, Skills, Abilities. - Qualifications: Might overlap with Requirements. But we can treat Requirements as education/experience, and Qualifications as certifications/licenses? However we have no certifications. Could combine. - Skills: Knowledge, Skills, Abilities section. - Benefits: Provided. - Pay: Hiring Range: $104,000 - $116,000, Commensurate with education and experience. The phrase "Comm..." is placeholder? It says "Commensurate with education and experience". That's not a specific number but it's still a range. We should include Pay section only if posting actually states them. It does state a range. So include Pay. - Schedule: Not mentioned explicitly. There's mention of flexible work schedules and teleworking options (if applicable per job). That's under Benefits. No explicit schedule like full-time, shift day etc. There's mention "Job Reg or CII Exempt Staff Full Time/Part Time Full-Time Shift Day". That's metadata but we should not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; we can fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. The schedule info: "Full-Time Shift Day". That's schedule info. We could include a Schedule section with that. However we need to avoid filler like "not specified". It's specified: Full-Time Shift Day. So we can include Schedule. But we must not repeat the job title as heading. Already not. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, accommodation request, etc. Remove those. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all duties, responsibilities, etc. We need to format using
headings, - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to decide what constitutes a list. Many sentences can be turned into list items.
We'll create sections:
About the role
...
Responsibilities
- ... each duty as li
Requirements
- Education: Bachelors in ...
- Experience: Four (4) years’ experience with proficient knowledge of at least two (2) operating systems, such as: Windows, Mac OS, and Unix/Linux (Red Hat/Suse/Solaris/AIX/HPUX)
- Supervisory Experience: N/A
- Preferred Experience: VMware vSphere/vCenter administration; Microsoft Hyper-V; Windows Server administration; Active Directory and Group Policy; Azure infrastructure and identity services; Veeam Backup & Replication; Enterprise storage solutions; Security patching and vulnerability remediation; Microsoft Defender or equivalent endpoint security platforms; Disaster recovery and business continuity planning; Experience supporting highly available production environments in healthcare, higher education, research, or similarly complex enterprise organizations preferred.
- Certification/Licensure: N/A
- Other: Except for qualifications established by law, additional related experience and formal education ... may be substituted for the education or experience requirement on a year-for-year basis with 30 undergraduate college credits being equivalent to one year of related experience. In instances where specific education and/or experience is required only directly related education and/or experience may be substituted.
But we need to avoid filler like "N/A". The instruction: 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. So we should not include sections that have only filler. For Requirements, we have Supervisory Experience: N/A and Certification/Licensure: N/A. Those are filler. We should omit those lines. Also we should not include "N/A" as list items. So we can drop those.
Similarly, for Preferred Experience we have a list; that's substantive.
For Other: substitution rule is substantive.
Thus Requirements section will include Education, Experience, Preferred Experience, Other.
Now Qualifications: maybe we can combine with Requirements? But we need to decide if we need Qualifications heading. The posting has "Knowledge, Skills, Abilities" which is more like Skills. There's also "Education:" etc. Could treat Qualifications as certifications/licenses (none). Since we have none, we should not create Qualifications heading.
Skills: Knowledge, Skills, Abilities section.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Now we need to extract duties list from "Primary Duties" and following paragraphs.
Let's parse duties:
- Working independently or overseeing a team the senior position has a lead role in the installation, support, and maintenance of servers, storage systems, or operating systems.
- Leads in the planning of and responds to service outages and infrastructure problems.
- Configuration and programming for systems-related projects.
- Using the latest technologies in high-throughput and high-performance computers and enterprise class storage systems develops computational infrastructures.
- Infrastructure Engineering and Virtualization Leadership: Serve as the primary administrator and technical lead for the organization's virtualization platforms, including VMware vSphere/vCenter and Microsoft Hyper-V environments, ensuring availability, performance, scalability, and lifecycle management of enterprise systems.
- Backup and Disaster Recovery Responsibilities: Administer and maintain enterprise backup and disaster recovery solutions, including Veeam Backup & Replication, backup validation, recovery testing, storage management, and business continuity planning.
- Cloud Migration and Hybrid Infrastructure: Participate in the design, implementation, and support of hybrid cloud solutions, including Microsoft Azure infrastructure, identity integration, disaster recovery, and modernization initiatives.
- Oversees and performs operating systems administration, development, installation, maintenance, and upgrade for assigned department(s), such duties as adding/deleting users, setting up/changing workstations/servers, backing up and recovery of data, data archiving, security, and installing/restoring data.
- Follows established policy and recommends process changes for operating system policies that would ensure security and integrity or lead to increased efficiency for users, applications, operating systems management, etc.
- Assist in the evaluation and acquisition of new technologies and products.
- Makes recommendations for upgrades to hardware and software based on existing operations, pending needs and available budget.
- Advises on new applications to be developed.
- Responsible for interfacing with other campus technologists and department team members to ensure integration of systems and applications are succinct.
- Provide technical support for the client workstations and resolves system and program issues for all applications utilized by the staff, including the upgrading of operating systems to support new applications.
- Frequently has team leadership responsibilities and provides training to other IT professionals.
- Performs other duties as assigned.
We'll turn each bullet into - .
Now Benefits: The paragraph: "Benefits: Exempt Regular UMB offers a comprehensive benefits package that prioritizes wellness, work/life balance, and professional development, along with additional exciting perks that employees can take advantage of. This position participates in a retirement program (pension or optional retirement plan/ORP) that must be selected and is effective on your date of hire. Exempt regular staff receive a generous PAID leave package that includes over 4 weeks of vacation accrued each year, 15 paid holidays, 3 personal leave, unlimited accrual of sick time, and comprehensive health insurance; professional learning and development programs; tuition remission for employees and their dependents at any University System of Maryland school; and flexible work schedules and teleworking options (if applicable per job)."
We can make list items: retirement program, paid leave package details, professional learning, tuition remission, flexible work schedules/teleworking.
Now Pay: "Hiring Range: $104,000 - $116,000, Commensurate with education and experience". The phrase "Comm..." is filler but we still have range. We should include Pay section with the range. Possibly we can note "Comm..." as filler but we can still include the range. The instruction: 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. So we can include Pay section with the range, but we should avoid including the filler phrase "Comm...". We could just put the range in a
. Or we could include both but the filler phrase is not allowed. So we should omit that phrase. So Pay section:
$104,000 - $116,000
.
Schedule: We have "Full-Time Shift Day". Also maybe "Exempt Regular". We'll include Schedule: Full-Time Shift Day
.
Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, accommodation request, Title IX, etc. Remove those.
Now produce HTML fragment.
Let's craft.
