EngineeringFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes description. We need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse content: The posting includes: - Intro about company (Summit Polymers) – could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" maybe summary of role. The posting includes "Job Description JOB TITLE: Engineer, Manufacturing (Assembly) FLSA STATUS: Exempt REPORTS TO: Manager, Engineering (Manufacturing) Summary This is hands-on technical work involving the assembly of injection molded plastic parts for automotive interior trim, full center consoles, and kinetic parts including air conditioning outlets, cup holders, glove boxes and bins. Provide technical support and leadership to manufacturing production teams with a focus on operational excellence each and every day." Thus we can put "About the role" with that summary paragraph. Responsibilities: list of duties under "Responsibilities And Duties". Many bullet-like sentences. We'll need to convert to
  • . Should preserve all substantive info. Requirements: Education And Experience section: Bachelor’s degree ... OR 5 years experience ... etc. Also includes proficiency in Omron PLC programming, etc. Those are more like qualifications/skills. We'll need to separate: Education And Experience as Requirements? Possibly "Requirements" includes education/experience. "Qualifications" maybe includes specific technical knowledge. "Skills" maybe includes abilities. We need to decide sections: The posting includes "Education And Experience", then a list of proficiencies/knowledge, then "Skills And Abilities". Also "Travel Requirements". Also "FLSA STATUS", "REPORTS TO". Those could be metadata; we can fold into short p. We must not include Pay, Schedule, Benefits unless present. Not present. So omit those sections. We must not include placeholders like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to remove boilerplate: DISCLAIMER, etc. Also remove "Agreement to complete all post-hire required training." maybe keep? It's part of job description but could be considered boilerplate? It's a requirement; but it's generic. Might keep? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The disclaimer is legal boilerplate; we should remove it. Also "Agreement to complete all post-hire required training." maybe also boilerplate; but it's a requirement. Might keep as part of Requirements? It's generic but still a requirement. I'd keep it as a line under Requirements maybe. We must preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. Thus produce HTML:

    About the role

    This is hands-on technical work involving the assembly of injection molded plastic parts for automotive interior trim, full center consoles, and kinetic parts including air conditioning outlets, cup holders, glove boxes and bins. Provide technical support and leadership to manufacturing production teams with a focus on operational excellence each and every day.

    Responsibilities

    • Responsible for all assembly machine activities associated with new product launches including:
      • ... but we need to break each bullet into separate li items. The original list is long with many sub-items. We'll need to split into logical items. Let's extract responsibilities bullet points: - Participating with the product development team and corporate manufacturing technical leaders to: - Ensure products are designed for manufacturability and quality. - Specify robust assembly machines that include effective error proofing, good ergonomics, and facilitate efficient standardized work. - Provide feedback to the corporate manufacturing technical leaders to improve assembly machine standards. - Working with the corporate manufacturing technical leaders to develop standardized work, machine quote specification sheets, capacity analysis, work balance tables, and assembly cell layouts from NBA thru end of program. - Participate in all machine design review meetings. - Monitor progress of assembly machine construction to ensure program and plant required timing is met. - Participate in machine review and validation runs of assembly equipment prior to shipment to manufacturing plant. - Working with corporate packaging engineers and packaging suppliers to develop external packaging and internal work in process packaging that ensures safe, defect-free transportation to subsequent operations and the customer. - Work with the SLMS engineer (lean manufacturing) to develop flow racks for the assembly cell. - Write standardized work instructions so operators can perform work safely, with the proper quality, and in the proper time. - Lead and perform engineering changes to assembly machines from an electrical, pneumatic, servo motor controls, PLC, machining, and sensor & vision system perspective. - Assist maintenance with developing effective preventative maintenance schedule. - Responsible for supporting manufacturing for assembly machines and cells in production. - Support the production team in increasing efficiency, quality, and safety through use of standardized work tools (element cycle time studies, standardized work charts and combination tables, work balance tables), practical problem solving methods and kaizen improvement opportunities. - Troubleshoot process or equipment-related problems and provide solutions in a timely manner. - Develop justifications for various process improvement projects. - Conduct process audits to ensure standardized work and quality system compliance in assembly. - Other duties as assigned. We'll create li for each major bullet; sub-bullets could be nested ul? The instruction: Use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. It didn't forbid nesting. We can keep simple flat list; each sentence as li. Thus produce many li. Next section: Requirements (Education And Experience). We'll include:

        Requirements

        • Bachelor’s degree in engineering or similar technical discipline OR 5 years of experience in an automotive manufacturing or assembly machine supplier environment may be considered in lieu of a degree.
        • Proficiency in Omron PLC programming.
        • Basic machine shop skills and ability to fabricate simple components.
        • Ability to read electrical and pneumatic prints.
        • Ability to view assembly machines in software such as SolidWorks eDrawing, to cut sections & measure dimensions.
        • Knowledge of plastic welding processes for injection molded parts including – sonic welding, vibration welding, hot plate welding, IR welding.
        • Knowledge of secondary decoration process including – hot stamping, pad printing, laser etching, laser marking, etc.
        • Knowledge of and ability to use a variety of sensors and vision systems to create a robust assembly machine and process.
        • Proficiency in Microsoft Office software suite – Excel, Word, PowerPoint.
        • Effective verbal and written communication skills.
        • Independent thinking with strong analytical and problem solving skills.
        • Flexible and able to manage multiple priorities and projects simultaneously.
        • Preferred experience in: SolidWorks, Visio, Mockup, Six axis robot and cobot programming – Fanuc and UR.
        • Travel Requirements: This position typically does not require any travel.
        • Agreement to complete all post‑hire required training.
        But we also have "Skills And Abilities" section: "Possesses the ability to gather and analyze information and make decisions from a limited number of choices. A minimum score of 50 on the Wonderlic Select Assessment (Traditional Score of 26 on the cognitive portion)." That seems like skills/abilities. Could be separate section Skills. Thus we could have:

        Skills

        • Possesses the ability to gather and analyze information and make decisions from a limited number of choices.
        • A minimum score of 50 on the Wonderlic Select Assessment (Traditional Score of 26 on the cognitive portion).
        But note that Wonderlic is a requirement maybe; but we can put under Skills. We must not duplicate content already listed. The Wonderlic is not elsewhere. We also have "FLSA STATUS: Exempt REPORTS TO: Manager, Engineering (Manufacturing)" - we could fold into a short p under About the role or separate metadata p. 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 p after About the role maybe: "

        FLSA Status: Exempt. Reports to: Manager, Engineering (Manufacturing).

        " That's minor metadata. We must not repeat job title as heading. Thus final HTML:
