Lead, Chief Systems Engineer

We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use

for each heading. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. Do not repeat job title as heading. Do not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Keep substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Key info: - Job Title: Lead, Chief Systems Engineer (but we don't output heading for it) - Job Code: 44437 (ignore) - Job Location: Colorado Springs, CO (maybe include in About the role? Could be part of prose) - Job Schedule: 9/80 - Employees work 9 out of every 14 days - totaling 80 hours worked (Every Other Friday Off). So schedule info present => we can include a Schedule section. - Job Description: L3Harris Technologies is seeking a Radar Chief Systems Engineer to support radar‑related programs at our Colorado Springs location. This role offers the opportunity to contribute to critical mission‑focused systems within a rapidly growing defense environment. The position plays a key role in developing and sustaining advanced solutions for high‑priority assets and requires strong collaboration within a team of experienced professionals. - Essential Functions: list of duties (multiple bullet-like sentences). We'll need to put them under Responsibilities (or maybe "Responsibilities" heading). The list includes many items. - Qualifications: Bachelor’s Degree and minimum 9 years of prior relevant experience. Graduate Degree and a minimum of 7 years of prior related experience. In lieu of a degree, minimum of 13 years of prior related experience. Must have technical leadership experience for teams of larger than 50 People. Experience in at least one of the following areas: radar software, signal processing, and/or RF hardware. Secret security clearance required. - Preferred Additional Skills: list of skills (phased array radars, high power amplifiers, digital beamforming, SDA mission prosecution, LPAR, HWIL simulation, surveillance, signal processing; CAMEO Systems modeler/ MagicDraw; Knowledge of Kubernetes environments, in particular experience with Redhat Openshift Containerized Platform (OCP); Working experience in Agile framework). These could go under Skills. - Pay: "In compliance with pay transparency requirements, the salary range for this role in Colorado State is $110,500 - $205,500. This is not a guarantee of compensation or salary, as final offer amount may vary based on factors including but not limited to experience and geographic location." So we have Pay section. - Benefits: "L3Harris also offers a variety of benefits, including health and disability insurance, 401(k) match, flexible spending accounts, EAP, education assistance, parental leave, paid time off, and company-paid holidays. The specific programs and options available to an employee may vary depending on date of hire, schedule type, and the applicability of collective bargaining agreements." So Benefits section. - Application window close date etc: maybe not needed; it's boilerplate? It's not EEO but it's application instruction; we should remove application instructions. The instruction: "The application window for this position will close on 11/1/2026." That's application instruction; we should drop. - EEO etc: remove. Thus sections: About the role (maybe include location and brief description), Responsibilities (essential functions), Qualifications (education/experience/clearance), Skills (preferred additional skills), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to ensure we only include sections when there is real specific content. All have content. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to format lists with

  • . For prose, use

    . We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Let's extract details precisely. About the role: Could combine location and description: "L3Harris Technologies is seeking a Radar Chief Systems Engineer to support radar‑related programs at our Colorado Springs location. This role offers the opportunity to contribute to critical mission‑focused systems within a rapidly growing defense environment. The position plays a key role in developing and sustaining advanced solutions for high‑priority assets and requires strong collaboration within a team of experienced professionals." Also maybe mention location: Colorado Springs, CO. Already in description. We could also mention "Job Location: Colorado Springs, CO" but we shouldn't put as heading; we can embed in prose. Thus About the role

    containing that. Responsibilities: list of essential functions.
