Marketing$107k–$114k/yrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, equal-opportunity, scam warning, navigation, cookie, etc. Also remove application instructions. We need to parse the posting. Content: - Intro paragraph about role: "The Lead Senior Science Writer plays a crucial role...". That's about the role. - Then description of role: "Serving as a vital link...". Could be part of About the role. - Then "This role reports to the Senior Associate Director of Strategic Content, Donor Experience & Engagement." That's about role. - Then "This position's work location is fully remote with occasional time on-campus in Brookline, MA. The selected candidate may only work remotely from a New England state (ME, VT, NH, MA, CT, RI)." That's schedule/location? Could be Schedule? Actually schedule is about work hours; location is not schedule but maybe we can treat as Schedule? The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have Schedule section for work location/remote details? Might be better to put location under About the role or maybe Schedule. Since they said schedule only if posting actually states them. The posting states work location fully remote with occasional on-campus, and remote only from New England states. That's more about work arrangement, could be Schedule. We'll include Schedule. - Then "Located in Boston and the surrounding communities, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is a leader..." That's about organization, could be About the role or maybe not needed. Could be part of About the role. - Then "We are united in our mission..." That's mission statement, could be About the role. - Then "We strive to create an inclusive..." That's EEO boilerplate; we should remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. So we need to remove that paragraph about inclusive environment, mission, etc? Actually the instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should remove the EEO statements. The paragraph about inclusive environment is likely EEO boilerplate. So we should drop that. - Then "We conduct groundbreaking research..." That's also mission; maybe keep as About the role? It's not EEO; it's describing the organization. Might be okay to keep. - Then "Primary Duties And Responsibilities" heading. Then list of duties: Research and Analysis, Information Gathering and Management, Writing and Editing, Collaboration and Teamwork. Each with sub-bullets. - Then "Knowledge, Skills And Abilities" heading. Then subcategories: Scientific Communication, Adaptability, Organizational, Customer Service. Each with bullet points. - Then "Minimum Job Qualifications" heading. Then bullet: Bachelor's Degree. 5 years of professional experience. Supervisory Responsibilities None. Patient Contact None. Special Working Conditions This position is considered remote, 0-1 days onsite at 10 Brookline Place, Brookline, MA each week. Works on deadline. Some evening or weekend work may be required. - Then more mission statements: "At Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, we work every day to create an innovative, caring, and inclusive environment..." That's EEO-ish; we should remove. - Then "If working in this kind of organization inspires you, we encourage you to apply." That's application instruction; remove. - Then "Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is an equal opportunity employer..." Remove EEO. - Then "The hiring range is based on market pay structures..." That's pay info. Then "$107,100.00 - $113,900.00". That's pay range. Thus we need sections: About the role: include intro paragraphs about role, mission, organization description (excluding EEO). Could combine. Responsibilities: from Primary Duties And Responsibilities. Requirements: maybe Minimum Job Qualifications? But they have separate Requirements and Qualifications sections. Usually Requirements = minimum qualifications; Qualifications = preferred? But we only have minimum qualifications. We could put Requirements as the minimum qualifications (Bachelor's, 5 years). Qualifications could be empty? But we should not create a section unless there is real specific content. So we could skip Qualifications if no distinct content. However we have Knowledge, Skills And Abilities which could be Skills section. So we can map: - About the role: intro + organization description. - Responsibilities: duties. - Requirements: Minimum Job Qualifications (Bachelor's, 5 years). Also maybe Supervisory Responsibilities None etc could be included but it's not a requirement; it's just stating none. Could include but it's not a requirement. Might be okay to include as part of Requirements. - Skills: Knowledge, Skills And Abilities (Scientific Communication, Adaptability, Organizational, Customer Service). - Pay: the salary range. - Schedule: work location/remote details (fully remote with occasional on-campus, remote only from New England states, 0-1 days onsite, some evening/weekend work may be required). Also maybe from Special Working Conditions. - Benefits: not mentioned; we should not create Benefits section. Thus we will output HTML with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. Use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO statements, mission statements about inclusive environment, application encouragement, etc. Let's extract precise content. About the role prose: - "The Lead Senior Science Writer plays a crucial role in translating complex advances in cancer research and care into engaging long-form donor collateral that demonstrates the impact of philanthropy at Dana-Farber." - "Serving as a vital link between oncologists, scientists, fundraisers, and donors, this position requires both strong scientific fluency and demonstrated skill in communicating complex biomedical concepts clearly, accurately, and eloquently to non-scientific audiences." - "The Lead Senior Science Writer must be able to synthesize—not simply summarize or simplify—technical information while preserving scientific accuracy and nuance and adhering to established editorial standards, formats, and strategic direction." - "By interpreting significant developments and challenges in cancer care and research, the Lead Senior Science Writer provides scientific and strategic insight that supports donor stewardship, the Division’s fundraising priorities, and Dana-Farber’s broader mission." - "This role reports to the Senior Associate Director of Strategic Content, Donor Experience & Engagement." - "This position's work location is fully remote with occasional time on-campus in Brookline, MA. The selected candidate may only work remotely from a New England state (ME, VT, NH, MA, CT, RI)." Actually that's schedule; but we could keep in About the role? Better to move to Schedule. - "Located in Boston and the surrounding communities, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is a leader in life changing breakthroughs in cancer research and patient care." - "We conduct groundbreaking research that advances treatment, we educate tomorrow's physician/researchers, and we work with amazing partners, including other Harvard Medical School-affiliated hospitals." We should keep those. Now Responsibilities: list under Primary Duties And Responsibilities. We have four main categories each with sub-bullets. We need to preserve all details. Let's extract each bullet. Research and Analysis: - "Thoroughly research and understand all aspects pertaining to a specific portfolio of strategic content collateral, encompassing all aspects of research and patient care at Dana-Farber." - "This includes reading, analyzing, and interpreting press releases, scientific papers, results from clinical trials, and content from technical lectures." Information Gathering and Management: - "Skillfully conduct interviews with clinicians, investigators, and cancer care professionals to elicit new perspectives, scientific context, specific accomplishments, incremental and major results, direct quotes, ideas on how to approach the report, names and contact information of other people to interview, and more." - "Actively update internal tracking systems to document information pertaining to interview subjects, the status of research studies, unusual situations, helpful sources, editorial reviews, and more." Writing and Editing: - "Plan and write compelling long form reports that convey the impact of philanthropic giving." - "Work closely with philanthropy colleagues to develop appropriate tone, content, and donor approach;" - "Write and edit reports in a timely fashion to meet specified deadlines;" - "Review the work of teams and writers within the Division of Philanthropy for scientific accuracy." - "Assist writers to formulate detailed concepts, convey research findings, and prepare written interpretations of data and other information for a primarily lay readership." Collaboration and Teamwork: - "Contribute as a member of the writing team." - "Thoughtfully participate in team meetings and share knowledge related to research findings, scientific writing trends, and learning opportunities." - "Work closely with philanthropy colleagues to conduct interviews with donors and faculty." - "Collaborate closely with senior leaders in cross-disciplinary teams in a highly matrixed environment to meet yearly key performance indicators." We need to keep punctuation as is. Now Requirements: Minimum Job Qualifications. - "Bachelor's Degree." - "5 years of professional experience." - "Supervisory Responsibilities None" - "Patient Contact None" - "Special Working Conditions This position is considered remote, 0-1 days onsite at 10 Brookline Place, Brookline, MA each week. Works on deadline. Some evening or weekend work may be required." But Special Working Conditions could go to Schedule. However we already have schedule info from earlier. We could combine schedule details: fully remote with occasional on-campus, remote only from New England states, 0-1 days onsite each week, works on deadline, some evening/weekend work may be required. Thus Requirements could be just Bachelor's Degree and 5 years of professional experience. The supervisory/patient contact none could be included but it's not a requirement; it's a statement. Might be okay to include as part of Requirements but it's not a requirement; but we can include as part of Requirements as it's factual. However the instruction: Use

    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can list requirements as bullet points. Thus Requirements bullets: - Bachelor's Degree - 5 years of professional experience - Supervisory Responsibilities: None - Patient Contact: None - Special Working Conditions: This position is considered remote, 0-1 days onsite at 10 Brookline Place, Brookline, MA each week. Works on deadline. Some evening or weekend work may be required. But note that Special Working Conditions duplicates schedule info; we might move that to Schedule section instead. However we already have schedule info from earlier about remote only from New England states. We could combine both into Schedule. Thus Requirements: Bachelor's Degree, 5 years of professional experience. Possibly also Supervisory Responsibilities None and Patient Contact None could be included but they are not requirements; they are just statements. Might be better to omit them from Requirements to avoid thin section? But we need to preserve all substantive information. Those are substantive: they state that there are no supervisory responsibilities and no patient contact. So we should include them. Thus Requirements bullets include those. Now Skills: Knowledge, Skills And Abilities. We have categories: Scientific Communication: - "Ability to first understand the science and then translate that knowledge accurately into a form that is both interesting and intelligible to the donor." - "Overall excellent written and verbal communication skills, with ability to express ideas clearly and logically." Adaptability: - "Demonstrate curiosity and a broad range of knowledge." - "Ability to learn how new technologies, such as artificial intelligence, can be used to create efficiencies." Organizational: - "Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively
