We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings where content exists. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, accommodation, etc. Must preserve substantive info. We need sections: About the role (maybe description), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. Let's parse content: Job description includes: - Intro paragraph: "Our Research Scientists are our Inventors..." etc. That's about role. - "Applications are sought for an SAP Master Data Specialist in Vaccines and Advanced Biotechnologies Process R&D (VAX PR&D). The role supports pilot-scale GMP manufacture of bulk biologic clinical supplies (vaccines and therapeutic proteins) and will create, design, and sustain standardized business processes, master data management, system sustainment, and lifecycle material management, while providing support for peer coaching and consultation as needed. The position will be temporarily based in West Point, PA for approximately 18 months (up to 24 months) to support business needs. After this period, the role is intended to relocate to Rahway, NJ. Applicants should be comfortable with this planned geographic transition. This role will be part of the VAX PR&D Planning and Manufacturing Systems (PAMS) team before transitioning to support the Next Generation Biologics (NGB) facility— a forthcoming state-of-the-art, multi-product GMP site at the CMC hub in Rahway, NJ. NGB will enable flexible multi-suite operations across development and pilot scales, support potent-material handling, and integrate novel cell-line and technology platforms. The Biologics Process R&D organization develops drug-substance manufacturing processes across biotherapeutic modalities and partners with Discovery, Pre-clinical, Early Development, and Manufacturing to enable clinical supply and commercial launches, including implementation of new technologies and scalable processes. The SAP Master Data Specialist will use SAP, business process knowledge, and SOPs to maintain alignment with global business processes and site regulatory requirements. The successful candidate will work closely with Process Staff, Formulators, Engineers, IT, Quality, and other team members to understand and execute master data requirements, support cross-functional initiatives, and contribute to continuous improvement." That's about role. Responsibilities list: bullet points after "Responsibilities of the SAP Master Data Specialist include but not limited to:" then list items. Qualifications: "BS degree in Engineering, Sciences, Business, or a related field with minimum 2 full years of relevant experience or a Master’s degree with 1+ year of relevant experience" Required Experience And Skills: list of abilities. Preferred Experience And Skills: list. Required Skills: list of many items (maybe duplicate). Preferred Skills: list. Benefits: "We offer a comprehensive package of benefits. Available benefits include medical, dental, vision healthcare and other insurance benefits (for employee and family), retirement benefits, including 401(k), paid holidays, vacation, and compassionate and sick days. More information about benefits is available at https://jobs.merck.com/us/en/compensation-and-benefits." Pay: "The salary range for this role is $87,300.00 - $137,400.00 This is the lowest to highest salary we in good faith believe we would pay for this role at the time of this posting. An employee’s position within the salary range will be based on several factors including, but not limited to relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, geographic location, government requirements, and business or organizational needs. The successful candidate will be eligible for annual bonus and long-term incentive, if applicable." Schedule: Not explicitly mentioned. There's "Travel Requirements No Travel Required", "Shift Not Indicated", "Flexible Work Arrangements Not Applicable". No schedule specifics like full-time, part-time. Probably no schedule section. We should not include sections with placeholder or vague like "not specified". So we omit Schedule. We need to include Benefits and Pay sections. We need to include Skills? There's Required Skills and Preferred Skills lists. Could combine into Skills section. The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have Skills section. We need to include Requirements? There's a "Requirements" heading later but it's EEO boilerplate. Actually after Preferred Skills there is "Required Skills" list then "Preferred Skills" list then "Current Employees apply HERE..." then "US And Puerto Rico Residents Only" then EEO etc. Then later "Requirements As an Equal Employment Opportunity Employer..." That's boilerplate. So we should not include a Requirements section because it's just EEO boilerplate. However there is also "Qualifications" earlier (degree). That's separate. So we will have Qualifications section. We also have "Required Experience And Skills" and "Preferred Experience And Skills". Those could go under Skills or maybe under Requirements? But we have Qualifications separate. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have Requirements section for things like "Required Experience And Skills". But we also have Qualifications separate. Let's decide: We'll have: - About the role (intro paragraph) - Responsibilities (list) - Qualifications (degree requirement) - Skills (combine Required Experience And Skills, Preferred Experience And Skills, Required Skills, Preferred Skills maybe) - Benefits - Pay We should not include Requirements as separate because it's mostly EEO. But we could include a short Requirements section for "Required Experience And Skills" but that's more like skills. I'd rather put them under Skills. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all the bullet points from responsibilities, qualifications, required experience/skills, preferred experience/skills, required skills, preferred skills. That's a lot; we need to output them as
  • . Must not lose any. We need to be careful not to include boilerplate like "Current Employees apply HERE", "US And Puerto Rico Residents Only", accommodation, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to keep the salary range and benefits info. We need to keep the location info (West Point, PA temporary 18-24 months then Rahway, NJ). That's part of About the role. We need to keep the description of NGB etc. Now let's extract content precisely. First, About the role paragraph(s). Let's copy the relevant paragraphs before Responsibilities. From the text: "Our Research Scientists are our Inventors. We identify and target steps in disease mechanisms or pathways that could be inhibited or enhanced. Our goal is to isolate a compound that is effective against a disease target. Using innovative thinking, state-of-the-art facilities and robust scientific methodology, we collaborate to discover the next medical breakthrough. Applications are sought for an SAP Master Data Specialist in Vaccines and Advanced Biotechnologies Process R&D (VAX PR&D). The role supports pilot-scale GMP manufacture of bulk biologic clinical supplies (vaccines and therapeutic proteins) and will create, design, and sustain standardized business processes, master data management, system sustainment, and lifecycle material management, while providing support for peer coaching and consultation as needed. The position will be temporarily based in West Point, PA for approximately 18 months (up to 24 months) to support business needs. After this period, the role is intended to relocate to Rahway, NJ. Applicants should be comfortable with this planned geographic transition. This role will be part of the VAX PR&D Planning and Manufacturing Systems (PAMS) team before transitioning to support the Next Generation Biologics (NGB) facility— a forthcoming state-of-the-art, multi-product GMP site at the CMC hub in Rahway, NJ. NGB will enable flexible multi-suite operations across development and pilot scales, support potent-material handling, and integrate novel cell-line and technology platforms. The Biologics Process R&D organization develops drug-substance manufacturing processes across biotherapeutic modalities and partners with Discovery, Pre-clinical, Early Development, and Manufacturing to enable clinical supply and commercial launches, including implementation of new technologies and scalable processes. The SAP Master Data Specialist will use SAP, business process knowledge, and SOPs to maintain alignment with global business processes and site regulatory requirements. The successful candidate will work closely with Process Staff, Formulators, Engineers, IT, Quality, and other team members to understand and execute master data requirements, support cross-functional initiatives, and contribute to continuous improvement." That's the About the role. Now Responsibilities list: after "Responsibilities of the SAP Master Data Specialist include but not limited to:" then bullet points: - Support the creation, maintenance, review, analysis, and accuracy of master data - Assist in the sustainment, performance, and monitoring of standard business processes in all production execution and master data functions - Support master data governance activities, including adherence to data standards, stewardship expectations, and escalation processes - Gather, analyze, and report process performance and transactional discipline metrics to support compliance and continuous improvement efforts - Collaborate with site and regional/global team members and participate as a member of the site CoP Team as needed - Assist in the development and maintenance of SOPs and training materials and provide end user training support; - Identify, troubleshoot, and help resolve master data issues, escalating more complex issues as needed - Participate in process improvement projects and support project planning, stakeholder coordination, and implementation activities - Identify and support continuous process improvement opportunities and help promote best practices across the network - Coordinate and share best practices with our company sites in the network - Serve as a technical resource to team members by providing consultation, coaching, and practical support within area of expertise - Assist in external agency inspections, as needed - Support safety, compliance, and GMP initiatives Note there is a semicolon after "training support;" but we keep as is. Now Qualifications: "BS degree in Engineering, Sciences, Business, or a related field with minimum 2 full years of relevant experience or a Master’s degree with 1+ year of relevant experience" Now Required Experience And Skills: list: - Ability and desire to work in a fast-paced and dynamic pilot plant environment that demands out-of-box thinking, prioritization, and rapid response to events and situations - Direct experience with working with SAP master data - Strong understanding of manufacturing principles/processes through work experience and ability to translate manufacturing requirements into an Automation/Digital Solution - Ability to work collaboratively as part of a team across various functions in a challenging and changing global environment - Proven track record of analytical skills, problem solving, and attention to detail - High personal integrity, credibility, and energy - Strong written and verbal communication skills - Strong computer skills in Excel Now Preferred Experience And Skills: - Experience in pharma/sterile manufacturing - Experience in working with MES systems Now Required Skills list (looks like a big list of keywords): "Adaptability, Adaptability, Business Processes, cGMP Guidelines, Continuous Process Improvement, Data Governance, Electronic Batch Records, GMP Compliance, Laboratory Experiments, Mammalian Cell Culture, Oral Communications, Personal Initiative, Pilot Plant Operations, Prioritization, Process Engineering, Process Improvement Projects, Process Optimization, Product Formulation, Production Planning, Regulatory Requirements, SAP PP (Production Planning), Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) Writing, Sterile Manufacturing, Teamwork, Technical Writing {+ 2 more}" Note there is duplicate "Adaptability". We should keep as is? Might be a mistake but we must preserve all substantive information; we could keep duplicate but maybe we should deduplicate? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplicate is still substantive? It's a mistake but it's in the posting. I'd keep it as is, but we could note duplicate but it's still info. I'd keep both. Now Preferred Skills list: "Current Employees apply HERE Current Contingent Workers apply HERE" that's not skills. Actually after that there is "US And Puerto Rico Residents Only". Then later "Preferred Skills" maybe not present. Actually
