Maintenance Mechanic
for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should map headings accordingly. The instructions: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should use those exact headings? It says e.g., but we can use those headings if content matches. We have content: About KDC/One (company overview) could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is typical heading for role description. We have "General Description". Could map to "About the role". Responsibilities: we have "Specific Responsibilities & Duties". Qualifications: we have "Qualifications". Skills: maybe we can extract skills from qualifications? But we should not create sections without real specific content. We have qualifications list includes skills. Could create a Skills section? Might be redundant. Better to have sections: About the role (using General Description), Responsibilities (Specific Responsibilities & Duties), Qualifications (Qualifications). Possibly also Work Environment as its own section? The instruction list includes Benefits, Pay, Schedule but we don't have those, so we omit them. We should not create empty sections.
We need to preserve all substantive information, remove boilerplate like EEO, at-will, drug test, note about external recruiting partners, etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no html/body tags, no markdown fences.
Let's extract content:
Company overview: "KDC is a network of best-in-class custom formulators and manufacturers of color cosmetics, skincare, haircare, bath & body, fragrance, deodorant, home, health, industrial, and auto care products. KDC delivers high-touch innovation, operational excellence, and speed to market to well-known and emerging beauty, personal, and specialty companies from coast to coast. KDC has its head office in Longueuil, Québec. In addition, KDC has 10 operating facilities located throughout North America. Altogether, the company employs nearly 4,800 talented and dedicated employees in North America."
Then about KDC/One: "KDC/One is a global leader in innovative, end‑to‑end contract manufacturing for beauty, personal care, and household products.

We need to output HTML with
headings for sections we include.
Which sections to include? We have:
- About the role (could combine company overview and role description). Could use "About the role" heading and include paragraphs about KDC/One and the role.
- Responsibilities (Specific Responsibilities & Duties) heading.
- Qualifications heading.

We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO statement, at-will, drug test, note about external recruiting partners.
We must preserve all substantive information.
Now construct HTML.
We'll start with About the role
then
containing company overview and role description.
We need to ensure we don't lose any info.
Let's craft paragraph:

That seems fine.

then maybe we can keep subheadings? The instruction only says use for section headings; we could still use for subheadings? Not prohibited but better to keep simple. Could just have a single with all responsibilities items grouped? But we need to preserve structure; we can keep subheadings as or but not as headings? Might be okay to use
Safety, Compliance & Documentation:
