Lead Engineer - Mobile & Full-Stack (Remote)

for prose. We need to decide what goes where. We have: - About the role: company description, role remote, EVP, WE ARE, YOU ARE? Actually "YOU ARE" is more about candidate expectations; could go under Requirements/Qualifications. But we can include some of it in About the role as overview. Better: About the role: include the introductory paragraphs up to "YOU ARE:"? Might be okay. Responsibilities: include the three subsections: Your Day-to-day Technical Leadership, Delivery & Execution, Team & Collaboration. Each contains prose paragraphs; we can treat each bullet as list items? Actually they are paragraphs with multiple sentences. We can wrap each paragraph in

. Or we could treat each bullet as list item if they are bullet-like but they are not bullet points; they are sentences separated by line breaks. We'll output

for each. Requirements: the "Required YOU'LL BRING:" list. That's a list of items each starting with bold? Actually each line is a requirement. We'll make

• . Qualifications: maybe we can treat "Preferred Experience ..." as Qualifications (or Preferred Qualifications). Could also be Skills. But we have separate Skills heading. Could put technical skills under Skills. However the posting includes many skill-like items: Experience with A.I. first engineering, native iOS/Android, full-stack, state management, REST/GraphQL, CI/CD, etc. Those could be Skills. The "Preferred Experience" includes LLM/AI-native, webview integration, leading teams, micro-frontend, accessibility, Expo, fintech background. Those could also be Skills or Qualifications. We need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine Required and Preferred into Requirements and Qualifications sections: Requirements = Required; Qualifications = Preferred. Skills could be extracted from both? But we already have skill-like items in Required. Might be redundant. Better: Use sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (covers Required), Qualifications (covers Preferred), Benefits. Skip Skills because it's covered. But instruction says we can include Skills if we have content. We could still include Skills but risk duplication. Safer to follow the posting: we have Required (technical qualifications) and Preferred (additional qualifications). We'll map Required to Requirements, Preferred to Qualifications. Benefits from "We Offer ..." plus equipment statement. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits. We must not include Pay or Schedule. Now we need to extract content precisely, preserving all substantive information, not inventing or summarizing away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we need to strip the EEO statement at end. Also remove "Job Required Equipment & Services Will Be Provided" maybe keep as benefit? It's a benefit: equipment provided. We'll include in Benefits. Now let's extract. About the role: Let's gather paragraphs from start until before "Your Day-to-day Technical Leadership".
