M&A Product Tech Diligence Architect, Manager

We need to output HTML fragment with sections only when there is real specific content. Use

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only if posting has real specific content. Let's parse the posting: - Intro paragraph about Deloitte Strategy & Transactions, Technology Diligence, role description. That's about the role. So we can have

About the role

with paragraphs. - "Work You'll Do" section: list of responsibilities. That's responsibilities. So

Responsibilities

with

• items. - "The successful candidate would possess these skills:" list of skills. That's skills. So

  Skills

  with
  . - "The Team" paragraph: maybe part of About the role? Could be separate but we can include in About the role or maybe a separate section like "Team". Not in allowed headings; we can fold into About the role. - "Qualifications:" list of required and preferred. That's qualifications. So

  Qualifications

  with
  maybe separate required and preferred? Could just list all. - Pay: there is wage range: $128,000 to $252,500 plus discretionary annual incentive. That's pay. So

  Pay

  with paragraph. - Benefits: not explicitly mentioned besides discretionary annual incentive program (maybe considered benefit). There's also mention of reasonable accommodations, but not benefits like health etc. The instruction: only create Benefits section if posting actually states them. It mentions discretionary annual incentive program, which is a benefit. Could include under Benefits. But also there is "You may also be eligible to participate in a discretionary annual incentive program". That's a benefit. So we can have Benefits section with that. - Schedule: not mentioned. No schedule info. So omit Schedule. - Also there is recruiting end date: "Recruiting for this role ends on 10/30/2026." That's metadata; we can fold into short

  maybe under About the role or separate? The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it. So we can include a short paragraph with that info. - Also there is immigration sponsorship limited, travel up to 50% etc. That's also metadata; could be part of Qualifications or About the role. We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can format them. We must not repeat the job title as a heading. The job title is "Product Architect Manager". Not to be used as heading. We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. There's a line about reasonable accommodations and contact email; that's not boilerplate? It's about accommodation request. Might be considered EEO/legal? It's about accommodation for disabilities. Might be considered boilerplate but it's specific. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The accommodation request could be considered EEO/legal. Safer to remove it? But it's substantive info about accommodation process. However it's likely considered boilerplate. I'd remove it to be safe. Also "Deloitte is committed to providing reasonable accommodations..." is typical EEO. Remove. Now we need to output only HTML fragment. Let's structure:

  Pay

  The wage range for this role takes into account the wide range of factors that are considered in making compensation decisions including but not limited to skill sets; experience and training; licensure and certifications; and other business and organizational needs. The disclosed range estimate has not been adjusted for the applicable geographic differential associated with the location at which the position may be filled. At Deloitte, it is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top of the range for their role and compensation decisions are dependent on the facts and circumstances of each case. A reasonable estimate of the current range is $128,000 to $252,500. You may also be eligible to participate in a discretionary annual incentive program, subject to the rules governing the program, whereby an award, if any, depends on various factors, including, without limitation, individual and organizational performance.

  Benefits: we could include the discretionary annual incentive program as benefit, but it's already in Pay paragraph. Could still have Benefits section with that. However to avoid duplication, maybe we keep it only in Pay. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can omit Benefits section if the benefit is already covered in
