We need to output HTML fragment with headings for 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. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, etc. Also remove "DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES?" maybe part of intro? We need to preserve substantive info.
Let's parse the posting.
First paragraph: "TEAM UP WITH US! The Machine Sales Representative is responsible for the sale, rental, and/or leasing of new and used machines to business and industrial establishments or individuals. This position is classified as an “outside sales” position; the position’s primary duty is to obtain orders/contracts for products or services; employees are customarily and regularly engaged away from Warren’s place of business."
That's about the role. Could be "About the role". We'll include that.
Next: "DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES?" maybe a heading but we shouldn't create heading for that; it's just a tagline. We'll ignore.
Then "What You'll Do" list of duties. That's responsibilities.
Then "What You'll Need" list of requirements/qualifications/skills.
Then "WHY WORK WITH US?" benefits.
Then "Important Information" includes physical demands, travel, safety, etc. Might be considered "Schedule" or "Benefits"? Not exactly. Travel up to 80% maybe schedule? Could be "Schedule" (travel). But we only include sections if they have real specific content. Travel up to 80% is specific. Also "Required travel up to 80%." Could be schedule. Also "This position is considered a safety sensitive position." Might be other info but not a section.
We should not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to decide sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We have content for About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (education/experience), Qualifications (maybe same as requirements), Skills (communication, conflict management), Benefits (health, dental, vision, life, more), Schedule (travel up to 80%). Pay not mentioned, so omit Pay section.
We must not create sections with filler. So we will include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Schedule. Possibly Qualifications separate? The posting has "What You'll Need" includes Bachelor's degree etc and "Reasonable familiarity with manufacturer’s literature..." and "Excellent communication skills..." and "Excellent conflict management...". Those could be split into Requirements (education/experience) and Skills (communication, conflict management). Qualifications maybe same as Requirements; but we can combine.
We need to avoid duplication. Let's extract:

Also note: "This position is considered a safety sensitive position." Could be included in About the role or maybe a separate section but not requested. We'll ignore as not part of headings.
We must not include boilerplate: EEO, legal, etc. Remove "Important Information" about physical demands etc. That's not under any heading we have; we could drop it because it's not requested. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." The "Important Information" includes physical demands, travel, safety, etc. It's not boilerplate but it's not under a requested heading. Should we include it? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep that info somewhere. But we only allowed headings for specific sections. Could we embed that info in About the role or Schedule? The physical demands etc are substantive. We could add a section like "Working Conditions" but not in allowed headings list. The instruction says use

We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, etc. Also remove "DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES?" maybe part of intro? We need to preserve substantive info.

It doesn't forbid other headings, but says "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies those are the allowed headings; we should not create other headings. However we must preserve all substantive info. We could incorporate the physical demands etc into About the role or Schedule as extra sentences. That would preserve info while staying within allowed headings.
Thus we can add to About the role: include that the employee is regularly required to stand; walk; use hands; etc; occasionally exposed to wet/humid conditions; moving mechanical parts; outside weather; noise level moderate; required travel up to 80%; safety sensitive position. But travel already in Schedule; we could mention travel there.
Better: Keep Schedule for travel up to 80%; physical demands could go under About the role as part of role description.
Let's craft About the role paragraph to include those details.
