for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (intro paragraph), Responsibilities, Requirements, Competencies, Physical Requirements (maybe combine sensory/physical/health care status), Pay Range.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Pay range is present, so include.
We need to ensure we don't invent or summarize away detail. Keep all specifics.
Let's extract details.
