Legal Director, Contracts
for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)
2. Use - for lists,
for prose
3. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading
4. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings
5. Preserve ALL substantive information
6. Remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions)
7. Include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text
8. Never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them
9. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones
10. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences
Looking at the job posting, I see it's duplicated multiple times. I need to extract the unique content.
The posting has:
- Company description (Carta)
- Team description (Carta Law Contracts team)
- Problems You'll Solve (with subsections: Oversight & Quality, Finance, Growth, Tech & Product, Client Relations, HR & People)
- About You (qualifications)
- Salary information (with specific ranges for different locations)
- Some boilerplate at the end (EEO, E-Verify, privacy, etc.)
I should structure this into sections:
1. About the Company (or About the Role) - but the rule says "About the role" as a heading example. The company description is more about the company. I'll use "About the Company" or "About the Role"? The rule says "e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule". I think "About the Company" is appropriate for the company description. But the rule says "use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)". It doesn't forbid other headings. I'll use "About the Company" for the company description.
2. The Team You'll Work With - could be a section.
3. The Problems You'll Solve - this is essentially responsibilities. Could be "Responsibilities" or "The Problems You'll Solve". I'll use "Responsibilities" as it's a standard heading.
4. About You - this is qualifications/requirements. Could be "Qualifications" or "Requirements". I'll use "Qualifications".
5. Salary - this is Pay. The posting has specific salary ranges. So I'll include a "Pay" section.
6. Benefits - the posting mentions "Exceptional Benefits" but doesn't detail them. It says "Carta’s Compensation Package Includes a Market Competitive Salary, Equity For All Full Time Roles, Exceptional Benefits, And, For Applicable Roles, Commissions Plans." But no details. The rule says never create Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It states "Exceptional Benefits" but no details. I think I should not create a Benefits section because there's no substantive content. The rule: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It states "Exceptional Benefits" but that's not specific. I'll omit Benefits.
7. Schedule - not mentioned.
8. There's also "At Carta, you're not just an employee..." which is culture/values. Could be a section "Culture & Values" or similar. But the rule says prefer a few substantive sections. I'll include it as part of "About the Company" or a separate "Culture" section. I'll include it as a separate section "Culture & Values" because it's substantive.
Now, I need to remove duplicates. The posting is repeated three times. I'll take the unique content.
Let me parse the unique content:

Boilerplate at end: EEO, E-Verify, privacy, etc. - remove.
Now, I need to output HTML fragment with sections.
I'll structure as:
About the Company
...
The Team You'll Work With
...
Responsibilities
- Oversight & Quality: ...
... but better to have subheadings? The rule says use for section headings. For subsections within responsibilities, I could use but the rule only mentions . However, the rule says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)". It doesn't forbid other heading levels. But to keep it simple, I'll use for main sections and within Responsibilities, I'll use a list with bold labels.
Alternatively, I could make each responsibility area a separate ? That would be many sections. The rule says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So I'll keep Responsibilities as one section with a list of items, each item being a responsibility area with its bullets.
But the responsibility areas have multiple bullet points. I could do nested lists. However, the rule says "Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". So I can have a top-level list for each responsibility area, and within each, a nested list for the specific duties.
But HTML nested lists are okay. I'll do:
Responsibilities
- Oversight & Quality
- Supervise all client accounts in your group for quality, service levels and performance, rather than hands-on delivery
- Act as final decision-maker on complex escalations or performance issues beyond Managing Lawyer (ML) authority
...

That's acceptable.
Similarly for Qualifications.
For Pay, I'll include the salary ranges.
Now, I need to ensure I don't include any boilerplate. The duplicated lines are removed.
Let's write the HTML.
Note: The job title "Legal Director, Contracts" appears multiple times but I should not repeat it as a heading. The page already shows it.
I'll start with About the Company, then The Team, then Responsibilities, then Qualifications, then Culture & Values, then Pay.
I'll omit Benefits and
