We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe Qualifications), Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real content. We need to parse the posting. First, there is "About Anthropic" which is boilerplate about company; we should remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it." Also "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." Thus we need to keep substantive info: About The Role description, Key Responsibilities, Minimum Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Annual compensation range, Logistics (education, field of study, years of experience, location-based hybrid policy, visa sponsorship), maybe "How We're Different" and benefits description? There's a paragraph about benefits: "We offer competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a lovely office space in which to collaborate with colleagues." That's benefits. Also "Guidance on Candidates' AI Usage" maybe not needed. We need sections: About the role (maybe from "About The Role" paragraph). Responsibilities (Key Responsibilities). Requirements (Minimum Qualifications). Skills (Preferred Qualifications maybe). Benefits (benefits paragraph). Pay (Annual Salary range). Schedule (Location-based hybrid policy). Possibly also "Logistics" includes education, field of study, years of experience; could be part of Requirements? But we can keep as separate? The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine education etc into Requirements or Qualifications. We need to use

for section headings. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the bullet points exactly as given? The responsibilities are a long paragraph with semicolons separating items. We need to turn them into list items. The posting: "Key Responsibilities Lead and manage tax workstreams for acquisitions, mergers, acqui-hires, asset and stock purchases, corporate reorganizations, financing transactions, and minority investments, including tax due diligence, risk identification and quantification, and deal structuring analysisPartner with Corporate Development on deal pipeline evaluation, providing early-stage tax input to inform go/no-go decisions and deal economicsDraft and review tax provisions in transaction documents, including purchase agreements, merger agreements, and ancillary deal documentsSupport post-acquisition tax integration planning, including entity rationalization, intercompany restructuring, and tax attribute analysisAdvise on tax considerations for data center investments, build-to-suit arrangements, leases, and related infrastructure transactions, and coordinate with relevant team members on incentives, credits, and indirect tax mattersAdvise on the tax structuring of joint ventures, strategic partnerships, and REIT-related investment structures, including real estate and data center joint venture arrangementsHelp build and maintain transactions tax playbooks, due diligence checklists, and internal processesCoordinate with the tax compliance and provision teams to ensure clean handoff of closed transactions, including documentation of structure, elections, tax attributes, and reporting positionsPrepare technical tax memoranda documenting transactions, material tax positions, and risk assessments to support internal sign-off, financial statement audit, and tax return filing positions" We need to split into separate list items. Likely each sentence separated by a capital letter after a period? Actually there are no periods; it's a run-on. We need to infer separate responsibilities based on conjunctions? The text uses commas and "and". Might be better to keep as a single paragraph? But instruction: Use

    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to make a list. We can split by the verbs: "Lead and manage...", "Partner with Corporate Development...", "Draft and review...", "Support post-acquisition...", "Advise on tax considerations...", "Advise on the tax structuring...", "Help build and maintain...", "Coordinate with the tax compliance...", "Prepare technical tax memoranda...". That seems reasonable. Similarly Minimum Qualifications: list items: "JD or CPA", "M&A and transactional tax experience gained at a large law firm, Big 4 M&A tax practice, or in-house transactions tax team", "Strong technical expertise in federal and state tax rules governing corporate transactions, including Section 338, Section 368 reorganizations, and asset and stock acquisitions", "Experience running tax due diligence workstreams and quantifying tax exposures in transaction contexts", "Experience drafting and negotiating tax provisions in M&A transaction documents", "Experience supporting post-acquisition integration from a tax perspective, including entity rationalization and intercompany restructuring". We'll make each a
    • . Preferred Qualifications: many items separated by line breaks? The text: "Preferred Qualifications 7-10 years of tax experience, with significant M&A and transactional tax exposureLL.M. in Taxation or MSTExperience providing general tax advisory support, including advising on commercial contracts, operational matters, and cross-functional tax questionsExperience with joint ventures, partnerships, minority investments, revenue-sharing arrangements and financing transactionsExperience with REITs, including REIT qualification and tax considerations for REIT joint ventures and real estate investment structuresExperience with data center acquisitions, infrastructure transactions, or real estate tax considerationsTax experience at a high-growth technology companyKnowledge of state and local tax (SALT) implications of transactionsExperience with equity compensation tax issues in the context of acquisitions and acqui-hiresExposure to international tax aspects of cross-border acquisitionsExceptional communication skills, with the ability to translate complex tax issues into clear, actionable guidance for Legal, Finance, and Corporate Development partnersComfort with ambiguity and a willingness to help build processes from scratch in fast-paced environmentsPassion for Anthropic's mission to build safe, transformative AI systems" We need to split into sensible items. Could separate by capital letters after a period? There are no periods. We'll need to parse manually: Let's insert splits where a new concept starts after a lowercase letter? Might be messy. Perhaps we can keep as a paragraph? But instruction says use list for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Preferred qualifications is a list; we should make list items. We'll approximate by splitting at each capitalized word that seems start of a new item after a lowercase letter? Let's try: - 7-10 years of tax experience, with significant M&A and transactional tax exposure - LL.M. in Taxation or MST - Experience providing general tax advisory support, including advising on commercial contracts, operational matters, and cross-functional tax questions - Experience with joint ventures, partnerships, minority investments, revenue-sharing arrangements and financing transactions - Experience with REITs, including REIT qualification and tax considerations for REIT joint ventures and real estate investment structures - Experience with data center acquisitions, infrastructure transactions, or real estate tax considerations - Tax experience at a high-growth technology company - Knowledge of state and local tax (SALT) implications of transactions - Experience with equity compensation tax issues in the context of acquisitions and acqui-hires - Exposure to international tax aspects of cross-border acquisitions - Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to translate complex tax issues into clear, actionable guidance for Legal, Finance, and Corporate Development partners - Comfort with ambiguity and a willingness to help build processes from scratch in fast-paced environments - Passion for Anthropic's mission to build safe, transformative AI systems That seems fine. Benefits: "We offer competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a lovely office space in which to collaborate with colleagues." We'll make list items. Pay: Annual Salary $230,000—$300,000 USD. We'll put in

      . Schedule: Location-based hybrid policy: "Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices." We'll put in

      . Also we have Logistics: Minimum education: Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience; Required field of study: A field relevant to the role as demonstrated through coursework, training, or professional experience; Minimum years of experience: Years of experience required will correlate with the internal job level requirements for the position. This could be part of Requirements or Qualifications. Since we already have Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications, we could incorporate these into Requirements section as additional items. But to avoid many sections, we could add them to Minimum Qualifications list. However they are more generic; but we can keep them as part of Requirements. We need to decide sections: About the role (from "About The Role" paragraph). Responsibilities (list). Requirements (maybe combine Minimum Qualifications + Logistics). Skills (Preferred Qualifications). Benefits (list). Pay (p). Schedule (p). That seems reasonable. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have real content.
