Skills
Maybe we can combine? But we already have Qualifications. Could we move those to Skills and keep Qualifications empty? Better to follow instruction: they have both Qualifications and Skills. We could put the preferred qualifications under Qualifications, and under Skills we could list technology proficiency, bilingual, lean/ISO knowledge. But that duplicates. Perhaps we can treat Qualifications as "Preferred Qualifications" and Skills as "Technical skills" like MS Office, Epicor, etc. But we already have those. Let's think: The instruction says use headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should include Qualifications and Skills if we have content. We have content for both: Qualifications could be "Preferred Qualifications" (bilingual, lean/ISO). Skills could be "Technology proficiency" (MS Office, Excel, Outlook, Epicor). Let's split. Thus: Qualifications (Preferred): - Bilingual Spanish/English - Prior experience using Lean manufacturing and/or ISO9001 methodologies, processes, or tools is helpful Skills: - Comfort with technology including MS Office, Excel, Outlook - Ability to quickly learn Epicor ERP system That seems reasonable. Now Benefits section:
Benefits

- Pet insurance
- Discounted prescription plans
- 401k match

- Employee assistance program

Now ensure we didn't include any boilerplate. Remove EEO etc. Also remove "Come join our team and learn more about PSI and what we have to offer!" (fluff). Also remove "Power Solutions International (PSI) is a leading manufacturer..." that's company description; maybe we could include in About the role? But About the role is for role description; company description could be considered fluff. However we might keep it as part of About the role? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; company description is substantive? It's about the company, not the role. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not navigation/legal/EEO. It's descriptive of the company. Could be kept but maybe not needed. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Including company description may add a thin section if we create a separate heading like "About the company". Not in allowed headings. Could we incorporate into About the role? The About the role heading is for role description; we could add a sentence about the company as context. But the instruction says "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 shortor drop it." Company description is not metadata; it's about the employer. Might be okay to include in About the role paragraph. However the original posting had a separate paragraph about PSI before Position Summary. We could include that as part of About the role paragraph. Let's do that: About the role paragraph includes both company overview and position summary. Thus About the role paragraph: "Power Solutions International (PSI) is a leading manufacturer of emissions-certified powertrains specializing in customized and fully integrated turnkey solutions for the leading global equipment manufacturers in the industrial, transportation, and energy markets. Our facilities are housed in one million square feet of engineering, assembly, operations, and distribution space across seven facilities.
