Launch Integration Engineer, Electrical & Software
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, application instructions, etc. Must preserve all substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Content:

You'll see your work on the road every day, helping people move freely and pursue their dreams. At Ford, you can build more than vehicles. Come build what matters.

Then "As a System Software Integration and Validation Engineer, you will play a critical role in ensuring the quality and reliability of our automotive systems. You will be responsible for designing, developing, and executing verification and validation activities to ensure that our software meets the highest standards of safety and performance. Your expertise will be vital in driving the success of our projects and maintaining our reputation for excellence."
Then "What you'll do..." list of responsibilities.
Then "You'll have..." list of qualifications.
Then "Even better, you may have..." list of preferred qualifications.
Then benefits paragraph: "As an established global company, we offer the benefit of choice..." then bullet list of benefits.
Then salary: "This position is a salary grade 8 and ranges from $138,800-$232,700. Final determination of salary grade will be based on candidate's skills and experience, and base salary will be set within the applicable range according to job scope, responsibility and competitive market value."
Then "For more information on salary and benefits, click here: https://fordcareers.co/GSR" (application instruction? maybe we keep? It's a link for more info; but instruction to click maybe considered application instruction? It's not exactly apply but info. Might keep as part of Benefits? Probably we can keep as a link within Benefits? But rule: remove application instructions. This is not exactly applying, but it's a link for more info. Might be considered boilerplate? Safer to drop it.
Then "Visa sponsorship is available for this position." (substantive)
Then "Candidates for positions with Ford Motor Company must be legally authorized to work in the United States. Verification of employment eligibility will be required at the time of hire." (legal boilerplate? Might be considered required but it's a standard statement; maybe we drop as it's generic legal? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. This is legal about work authorization; likely considered boilerplate. Remove.
Then "We are an Equal Opportunity Employer..." drop.
Then "In the United States, if you need a reasonable accommodation..." drop.
Then "This position is hybrid with a requirement to be onsite four or more days per week." (Schedule info) So we need a Schedule section.
Also "#UEV" maybe a tag; drop.
Thus sections:
- About the role (maybe intro paragraph). Could be "About the role" heading.
- Responsibilities (What you'll do)
- Requirements (You'll have) maybe "Qualifications" or "Requirements". The rule says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose appropriate.
We have "You'll have..." which are required qualifications. Could be "Requirements" or "Qualifications". We'll use "Requirements".
Then "Even better, you may have..." could be "Preferred Qualifications" but not in list; we could put under "Skills" maybe? Or we could add a "Qualifications" section for required and another for preferred? But we prefer few substantive sections. Could combine required and preferred under "Requirements" with sub-bullets? But we need to preserve all detail. Could have "Requirements" for required, and "Preferred Qualifications" maybe not a standard heading but we could use "Skills" for preferred? However "Skills" heading is allowed. We could put preferred qualifications under "Skills". But the preferred includes Masters/PhD, familiarity with ISO 26262, proficiency in C/C++/Python/MATLAB, experience testing fully electric vehicles. Those are skills/qualifications. So we can put them under "Skills". The required qualifications include degree, years experience, understanding of automotive systems, etc. Those could be under "Requirements". Good.
Benefits: we have list of benefits.
Pay: we have salary range.
Schedule: hybrid requirement.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must not emit empty sections.
Now craft HTML.
We need for each heading, then content: either
for prose,
- for lists.
We need to preserve all substantive info.
Let's extract About the role prose: The introductory paragraphs up to "In this position..." maybe combine.
We have: "We made history and now we work to transform the future – for our customers, our communities and our families.

. Now Schedule: "This position is hybrid with a requirement to be onsite four or more days per week." We can put that in a
. We should also include Visa sponsorship info? It's substantive: "Visa sponsorship is available for this position." Could be part of Benefits or maybe a separate note. Since we have Benefits section, we could add a bullet there. But it's not a benefit exactly; it's about visa. Could add a
under Benefits or separate section? There's no heading for Visa. Could add a
after Benefits before Pay? But rule: only emit sections when posting has real, specific content for it. We could add a
under Benefits? But it's not a benefit. Perhaps we can add a short
after Benefits heading? Actually we could add a
