We need to output only HTML fragment, no html/body tags, no markdown fences. Use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only if posting has real specific content. Let's parse the posting.
Content:
- Date posted, location, etc: we can drop metadata.
- Position Role Type: Onsite (maybe not needed as heading; we can include in a short paragraph maybe under About the role? But we shouldn't repeat job title as heading. The job title is "Mechanical Design Engineering Intern at Collins Aerospace". We shouldn't repeat that as heading.
- "U.S. Citizen, U.S. Person, or Immigration Status Requirements: This job requires a U.S. Person." That's a requirement.
- Security clearance: none.
- Then a paragraph: "Are you ready to explore the world of aerospace and defense? ..." That's about the role/intro.
- "What You Will Do As a Mechanical Design Engineering Intern at Collins Aerospace, you will:" then bullet list of duties.
- Then "Qualifications You Must Have" bullet list.
- Then "Qualifications We Prefer" bullet list.
- Then "What We Offer" paragraph about values, relocation eligibility, etc.
- Then "Learn More & Apply Now!" etc (application instructions) - we should remove.
- Then "Please consider the following role type definition as you apply for this role. Onsite: Employees who are working in Onsite roles will work primarily onsite." That's about schedule? Could be schedule info.
- Then "As part of our commitment to maintaining a secure hiring process, candidates may be asked to attend select steps of the interview process in-person at one of our office locations, regardless of whether the role is designated as on-site, hybrid or remote." That's also maybe schedule? Not needed.
- Then "The salary range for this role is 42,000 USD - 88,000 USD." That's Pay.
- Then "The salary range provided is a good faith estimate representative of all experience levels." etc.
- Then "Hired applicants may be eligible for benefits, including but not limited to, medical, dental, vision, life insurance, short-term disability, long-term disability, 401(k) match, flexible spending accounts, flexible work schedules, employee assistance program, Employee Scholar Program, parental leave, paid time off, and holidays." That's Benefits.
- Then "Specific benefits are dependent upon the specific business unit as well as whether or not the position is covered by a collective-bargaining agreement." etc.
- Then "Hired applicants may be eligible for annual short-term and/or long-term incentive compensation programs depending on the level of the position and whether or not it is covered by a collective-bargaining agreement." That's also benefits maybe.
- Then "Payments under these annual programs are not guaranteed and are dependent upon a variety of factors including, but not limited to, individual performance, business unit performance, and/or the company’s performance."
- Then "This role is a U.S.-based role. If the successful candidate resides in a U.S. territory, the appropriate pay structure and benefits will apply."
- Then "RTX anticipates the application window closing approximately 40 days from the date the notice was posted. However, factors such as candidate flow and business necessity may require RTX to shorten or extend the application window." That's maybe schedule? Not exactly schedule but application window.
- Then EEO boilerplate etc to remove.
We need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide which sections have content.
- About the role: we have introductory paragraph about exploring aerospace, learning from minds, RTX internships etc. That's about the role. So we can put that in

with
...
. - Responsibilities: the "What You Will Do" list. That's responsibilities. - Requirements: the U.S. Person requirement (citizenship/immigration). Also maybe the degree pursuit requirement? Actually degree requirement is under Qualifications You Must Have. But we can treat that as Qualifications. Requirements could be citizenship/immigration and maybe security clearance (none). We'll include the U.S. Person requirement. - Qualifications: we have "Qualifications You Must Have" and "Qualifications We Prefer". Could combine into Qualifications section with two sublists? But we need to use- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. We can have separate headings? Not allowed; only the specified headings. So we need to fit qualifications under
Qualifications
. We can include both must-have and preferred as separate- maybe with a note? Could also split into Skills? But we have Skills section separate. Could put must-have under Qualifications, preferred under Skills? But better to keep Qualifications for must-have, Skills for preferred? However the posting includes "Qualifications We Prefer" which includes experience with machining, sheet metal, composites, fabric design; analytical skills; experience presenting design solutions; prior RTX internship; experience with mechanical principles to solve classical structural analysis solutions both inside and outside of finite element tools. Those could be considered Skills. So we can put must-have under Qualifications, and preferred under Skills.
- Benefits: we have benefits list.
- Pay: salary range.
- Schedule: we have Onsite role description (work primarily onsite). Also maybe mention that they may need to attend interview steps in-person. That's schedule-ish. We'll include schedule info.
We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content.
Now we need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the exact details? We can paraphrase but must preserve meaning. Probably okay to rephrase slightly but keep details.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, privacy policy, application instructions, "Learn More & Apply Now!", "Please consider the following role type definition as you apply for this role." Actually that part is about Onsite definition; we can keep that as schedule content but remove the "Please consider the following role type definition as you apply for this role." That's instructional. We'll keep the definition of Onsite.
We must not repeat job title as heading. We'll not.
We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings.
Now produce HTML fragment.
Structure:
- ... ...
- Must be pursuing a Bachelor’s or Advanced degree in Mechanical Engineering or Aerospace Engineering and actively enrolled through the completion of the internship/co‑op session.
- Experience with 3D computer aided design (CAD) software such as SolidWorks, NX, UG (Unigraphics) and/or CATIA (experience may be obtained through on‑the‑job experience, research, coursework, or projects).
- Previous experience or coursework with machining, sheet metal, composites, and fabric design.
- Analytical skills including experience with physics, dynamics, and statics.
- Experience presenting design solutions to internal and external customers.
- Prior RTX internship, co‑op, or work experience.
- Experience with mechanical principles to solve classical structural analysis solutions both inside and outside of finite element tools.
- Medical, dental, vision, life insurance.
- Short‑term and long‑term disability.
- 401(k) match.
- Flexible spending accounts.
- Flexible work schedules.
- Employee assistance program.
- Employee Scholar Program.
- Parental leave.
- Paid time off and holidays.
- Eligibility for annual short‑term and/or long‑term incentive compensation programs (subject to position level and collective‑bargaining agreement; payments not guaranteed).
- under Responsibilities. Also we might include the "Are you ready to explore..." paragraph as About the role. Check for any other substantive content: The "What We Offer Our values drive our actions..." paragraph includes values list. Could we include that under About the role or Benefits? It's about values; maybe we can include in About the role as additional description. But we already have About the role paragraph; we could extend it to include values. However we must not invent or summarize away detail. We can include that paragraph as part of About the role. Thus About the role could contain two paragraphs: first the introductory motivational paragraph, second the values paragraph. That's okay. We must not include "Relocation Eligibility Learn More & Apply Now!" etc. Now check for any mention of "Learn More & Apply Now!" we removed. Now check for any mention of "Please consider the following role type definition as you apply for this role." we removed the instructional sentence but kept the definition of Onsite. That definition is: "Onsite: Employees who are working in Onsite roles will work primarily onsite. This includes all production and maintenance employees, as they are essential to the development of our products." We included that in Schedule. Now check for any mention of "As part of our commitment to maintaining a secure hiring process, candidates may be asked to attend select steps of the interview process in-person at one of our office locations, regardless of whether the role is designated as on-site, hybrid or remote." We included that in Schedule. Now check for any mention of "The salary range for this role is 42,000 USD - 88,000

We need to ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like "Relocation Eligibility Learn More & Apply Now!" etc. We removed. Check for any duplicated lines: we didn't repeat. Check for any content we omitted: The "What You Will Do" list includes many items. We need to include all those items. Let's list them: - Support through all phases of design including: bid and proposal, conceptual design, preliminary design, detailed design, qualification testing, new product introduction, and production implementation. - Successfully execute on design/project tasks required to develop and qualify aircraft ejection seats by ensuring technical scope integrity and budget/schedule accuracy - Utilize SolidWorks/UG/NX CAD software and facilitate the drafting department to produce standard, quality, and industry producible models/drawings - Work as part of a cohesive team with test engineering, product engineering, system engineering, and program management - Support program through technical writing presentations and reports for customer approval - Support Program Management with any preparation of bids and proposals - Support Systems Engineering on requirements analysis and the requirement compliance plan We need to include all these as
