We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "Team Overview", "Position Overview", "Essential Duties", "Skills", "Education", "Credentials", "Salary". Also maybe "Responsibilities" etc. We need to use headings

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we should only include sections when posting has real specific content. The posting includes "Team Overview" (maybe About the role), "Position Overview" (maybe Responsibilities), "Essential Duties" (maybe Responsibilities), "Skills", "Education", "Credentials", "Salary". Also maybe "Qualifications" could combine Education and Experience. But we must not invent sections. Use headings exactly as given? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to those headings if appropriate. But we can also use other headings? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect we use those exact headings when applicable. However we must not repeat job title as heading. We can include "About the role" for Team Overview + Position Overview. "Responsibilities" for Essential Duties. "Qualifications" for Experience, Education, Credentials. "Skills" for Skills. "Pay" for Salary. No Benefits or Schedule. Also maybe "Requirements" could be experience/education but we already have Qualifications. We'll follow: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Pay. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. We need to strip boilerplate: EEO statement at end should be removed. Also maybe "The Federal Home Loan Bank of New York is committed..." remove. We need to keep all details: Team Overview paragraph, Position Overview paragraph, Essential Duties bullet points (many). Skills bullet list. Experience/Education/Credentials details. Salary. We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't include cookie/navigation etc. Let's extract content. Team Overview: "Financial Accounting (FA) is responsible for all daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly accounting and reconciliations, as well as all required reporting to the SEC, FHFA and OF. FA works with various stakeholders including HR, Legal, Corporate Real Estate, Membership, Senior Management, SOX, internal and external auditors and the OF." Position Overview: "This position is responsible for supporting the external reporting function; SEC reports to include 10-K and 10-Q, and various reports filed with bank regulators. Research technical accounting/reporting matters; and other special projects as assigned by Manager or Sr Manager of Financial Reporting. In addition, this position will have a significant role in implementation of new trade accounting subledger." Essential Duties: It's a long paragraph with many sentences, some separated by periods. We need to turn into list items? The instruction: Use

    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The Essential Duties section is a list of duties; we can break each sentence into
    • . However we must preserve all substantive information; we can keep as prose? But they say use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should convert to list. Let's parse Essential Duties sentences: - Internal Reporting Heavy involvement with implementation of new trade accounting subledger. This will include configuration, integrations with other Bank applications and UAT testing, - Support accounting reconciliations and reporting functionality for all fixed income products including mortgage loans. - SME level cash flow understanding. - Prepare quarterly Statement of Cash flow for regulatory and SEC. - Prepare insightful quarterly variance analysis for senior management. - Research for explanation of any variances of trading subledgers and general ledger. - Review/Approve daily summary of settlement breaks. - Sign off on controls governing the DDA Cash balance, general ledger, the mortgage provider’s database and in-house mortgage loan application proofs for completeness and accuracy. - Exceptions are followed up and resolved in a timely manner. - Review/Approve monthly analysis for Real Estate Owned property to ensure activities are booked in GL appropriately. - Streamline month end account analysis process. - Design accounting/reporting specifications for systems. - Manage relationships with third party vendors. - Prepare periodic management reports and financial statements. - Take a leadership role in system design and implementation projects, particularly those closely related to financial reporting. - SEC Reporting Manage the quarterly and annual SEC filings (i.e., 10-Qs and 10-K) which include generating and compiling supporting documentation. - Supervise the production of financial statements and support for Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) in the 10-Q/K. - Collaborate with employees from other departments to ensure proper accounting for fixed income trading products including mortgage loans. - Research current accounting and reporting issues, trends, and policies to be applied to applicable transactions and/or SEC filings. - Review disclosures in the 10-Q/K for accuracy. - Initiate changes to streamline the SEC reporting process. - Manage the preparation and accuracy of the Statement of Cash Flows. - XBRL Tagging Review and research XBRL tagging prepared by the third-party vendor (Workiva) to determine if the tagging is in compliance with SEC guidelines. - Work closely with vendors to rectify tagging errors. - Work closely with other 11 Federal Home Loan Banks to ensure XBRL tagging consistency within the FHLBank system. - External Reporting Monitor, understand and implement FHFA regulations and the Office of Finance’s requirements pertaining to financial reporting and ensure compliance with the reporting systems, CRS and FRS - Lead the annual Form 1042 filings with the IRS. - Research for new FASB accounting pronouncement and assist in the implementation of changes. - Compliance Prepare, maintain and update accounting policies and procedures in conformity with SOX requirements. - Oversee Financial Accounting’s compliance with policies and procedures. - Other Duties Internal: Internal Auditors, SOX, Legal, Corporate Real Estate, HR, Senior Management, Risk Management, Capital Markets and Information Technology. - External: FHFA examiners, external auditors (PwC) and the Office of Finance. We need to keep these as list items. Some sentences are long; we can keep as is. Skills: "Strong organizational, analytical, critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Ability to balance multiple tasks and priorities and have outstanding work ethics and sense of urgency." We can make list items? It's not a list but we can keep as

        or

        • . Since it's a list of skills, we can make
          • each skill separated by period? Better to keep as

            maybe. But instruction: Use

            • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Skills is a list; we can make
              • each. Education: "Bachelor’s degree in accounting and CPA preferred." Credentials: "Credentials: CPA, CFA, Series 7" Experience: "Four to eight years of experience required, preferably with a mix of public and private experience in banking or financial services with an emphasis in SEC reporting. Big Four Public Accounting experience a plus." We can combine Experience, Education, Credentials under Qualifications. We need to preserve all info. So Qualifications section will contain experience, education, credentials. Pay: "Salary: $125K to $135K" We should not include Benefits or Schedule. Now produce HTML fragment. Structure:

                About the role

                Team Overview ... Position Overview ...

                maybe combine both paragraphs. But we should not duplicate. Could put two

                inside. Better:

                About the role

                Financial Accounting (FA) is responsible for all daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly accounting and reconciliations, as well as all required reporting to the SEC, FHFA and OF.
