We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EOE/Vet/Disabled, etc. Also remove application instructions. The posting includes sections: Brief Description (intro), What You'll Do (responsibilities), What We're Looking For (requirements/qualifications/skills), Why Join Us? (benefits?), and then a summary about benefits: "Onsite medical clinic...". Also there is "EOE/Vet/Disabled" which is boilerplate to remove. We need to map content to sections. We have: - About the role: maybe the brief description paragraph(s) before "What You'll Do". That includes company history and role overview. So we can put that under

About the role

with

. - Responsibilities: the bullet list under "What You'll Do". Each line starts with a verb. We'll put as

  • . - Requirements: maybe the degree and years experience etc. Under "What We're Looking For". That includes education, experience, etc. Could be Requirements. - Qualifications: maybe overlapping; but we can separate: Requirements (education/experience) and Qualifications (technical skills). However the instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But they ask to use headings for those if content exists. We have content for both. Could split: Requirements (education, years experience) and Qualifications (skills, proficiencies). Let's see. Under "What We're Looking For" we have bullet list of items: Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree..., 3 years of experience..., Experience designing metal enclosures..., Proficiency with mechanical CAD..., Demonstrated ability..., Working knowledge..., Experience developing..., Understanding..., Ability to interpret..., Ability to create..., Experience working directly..., Strong attention..., Strong technical..., Ability to manage..., Ability to work..., Good oral..., Ability to follow..., Ability to maintain..., Punctual..., Ability to accept..., etc. That's a mix of requirements and qualifications. Could treat all as Requirements. But we also have a separate "Why Join Us?" which includes benefits description. Then there is a separate paragraph about benefits: "Onsite medical clinic...". That is benefits. Pay and Schedule: not mentioned. So we should NOT include Pay or Schedule sections. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (or Qualifications), Benefits. We need to decide naming: Use headings exactly as given: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have content for About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe also Qualifications/Skills). Could we put all under Requirements? But then we would miss Qualifications/Skills heading if we don't have content. The instruction: "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". So if we put Qualifications heading but have no specific content distinct from Requirements, that might be considered filler? Better to combine into one section, maybe Requirements, and omit Qualifications and Skills headings. However the instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can combine education/experience and technical skills into one Requirements section. That seems acceptable. Thus we will output:

    Onsite medical clinic for employee, spouse and family members, 18 and under, living at home; Medical, Dental, 401k, Life Insurance, Short and Long Term Disability, paid vacation/holidays, plus some not so usual (free security system, free UPS shipping), so you don't have to worry about self or family.

    We need to ensure we preserve all substantive information. Let's extract the brief description paragraphs: "Brief Description For more than 50 years, our company has been designing and manufacturing security products that protect people, property, and businesses. Our long history is built on engineering expertise, quality craftsmanship, innovation, and a commitment to our customers. We’re looking for an experienced Mechanical Designer to join our Engineering team and help turn product concepts into real-world products. You’ll have the opportunity to solve design challenges, make mechanical design decisions, work directly with manufacturing partners, and see your designs move from concept to prototype to production. The Mechanical Designer develops mechanical designs and detailed drawings for electronic products and related components. You’ll work on a variety of projects involving metal enclosures, fabricated and machined components, wire harnesses, mechanical assemblies, mounting hardware, and other product hardware. You’ll collaborate with Engineering, Manufacturing, Purchasing, Quality, and outside vendors to create designs that balance function, manufacturability, reliability, serviceability, quality, and cost. From interpreting product requirements and developing concepts to creating detailed manufacturing drawings and supporting production, you’ll play an important role throughout the entire product development process." We need to remove "Brief Description" heading? It's not a section heading we need; we just put the content in About the role. Now responsibilities: list each line after "What You'll Do". Let's extract: - Analyze mechanical design requirements and develop practical design solutions that meet functional, dimensional, manufacturing, reliability, serviceability, and cost requirements. - Develop mechanical designs for electronic products, including metal enclosures, brackets, covers, panels, mounting hardware, fabricated parts, machined parts, and other mechanical components. - Make appropriate mechanical design decisions regarding materials, construction methods, fasteners, hardware, finishes, tolerances, and other design details. - Create detailed 2D manufacturing drawings and associated CAD documentation for mechanical components and assemblies. - Develop and evaluate dimensional tolerances and tolerance stack-ups to ensure proper fit, function, and manufacturability. - Create mechanical layouts and assembly drawings showing component relationships, mounting requirements, critical dimensions, and assembly methods. - Develop wire harness designs and prepare wire harness drawings and related documentation, including wire routing, connector information, wire specifications, and assembly requirements. - Work with Electrical Engineering and other Engineering personnel to establish and maintain mechanical interfaces between PCBs, electronic components, wiring, enclosures, and other product assemblies. - Review mechanical designs for manufacturability, assembly, serviceability, reliability, and cost, and recommend alternate materials, constructions, or manufacturing methods when appropriate. - Work directly with outside vendors to develop prototypes, obtain design feedback, resolve manufacturing issues, and transition designs into production. - Build and evaluate mechanical prototypes and assist with prototype and first-article construction and inspection. - Support DMP Incoming Inspection and Quality personnel in resolving dimensional, fit, finish, and other mechanical issues identified during receiving or production. - Investigate mechanical production problems and develop or implement approved design changes to improve manufacturability, reliability, quality, or cost. - Maintain accurate and current CAD files, drawings, bills of material, revisions, and other mechanical product documentation in accordance with DMP engineering and document-control processes. - Assist in establishing and maintaining mechanical design standards, CAD libraries, drawing practices, templates, and engineering processes. - Complete assigned mechanical designs on schedule and with a high level of quality, accuracy, and attention to detail. - Ensure mechanical designs are consistent with applicable product requirements, manufacturing capabilities, cost allocations, and DMP quality expectations. - Comply with DMP Data Classification Standards and applicable company policies and procedures. - Identify opportunities to improve processes, reduce waste, improve efficiency, and reduce product or manufacturing costs. - Perform other duties as assigned. Now requirements/qualifications: list each bullet after "What We're Looking For". Let's extract: - Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering Technology, Mechanical Design, Drafting, or a related discipline, or equivalent work experience. - 3 years of experience designing mechanical components and assemblies, preferably for electronic products manufactured in volume. - Experience designing metal enclosures and fabricated or machined components. - Proficiency with mechanical CAD software, including SolidWorks and AutoCAD. - Demonstrated ability to independently develop mechanical designs from product requirements and concepts through completed, manufacturable designs, including layouts, material and hardware selection, tolerances, and detailed manufacturing drawings. - Working knowledge of common manufacturing processes for sheet metal, machined parts, fabricated components, fasteners, and other mechanical hardware. - Experience developing and evaluating tolerance stack-ups and applying appropriate dimensional tolerances. - Understanding of design-for-manufacturability, design-for-assembly, reliability, serviceability, and cost considerations. - Ability to interpret engineering requirements, electrical/mechanical interfaces, component datasheets, manufacturing requirements, and existing product documentation. - Ability to create and maintain detailed mechanical drawings, assembly drawings, bills of material, and related manufacturing documentation. - Experience working directly with outside manufacturing vendors and resolving design or manufacturing issues. - Strong attention to detail and accuracy. - Strong technical problem-solving skills and sound mechanical design judgment. - Ability to manage multiple projects and priorities while meeting established schedules. - Ability to work effectively with engineers, manufacturing personnel, vendors, and other departments. - Good oral and written communication skills. - Ability to follow established engineering and documentation processes. - Ability to maintain confidentiality. - Punctual, cooperative, and maintains a positive attitude. - Ability to accept and benefit from constructive criticism. Now benefits: The "Why Join Us?" paragraph plus the summary about benefits. Let's capture: "Why Join Us? As a Mechanical Designer, you’ll have the opportunity to work on tangible products and solve practical engineering challenges. You’ll collaborate with experienced professionals across Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, Purchasing, and our vendor network—and you’ll see your work progress from an initial concept all the way through production. If you’re looking for a role where your design expertise, creativity, attention to detail, and problem-solving skills can make a direct impact, we invite you to apply." Then after that there is "EOE/Vet/Disabled Summary Onsite medical clinic for employee, spouse and family members, 18 and under, living at home; Medical, Dental, 401k, Life Insurance, Short and Long Term Disability, paid vacation/holidays, plus some not so usual (free security system, free UPS shipping), so you don't have to worry about self or family." We need to remove EOE/Vet/Disabled and maybe "Summary". So benefits paragraph: "Onsite medical clinic for employee, spouse and family members, 18 and under, living at home; Medical, Dental, 401k, Life Insurance, Short and Long Term Disability, paid vacation/holidays, plus some not so usual (free security system, free UPS shipping), so you don't have to worry about self or family." Also we could include the "Why Join Us?" paragraph as part of Benefits? It's more about role appeal. Could be considered Benefits but it's more about opportunity. However we have no separate section for "Why Join Us". We could incorporate that into Benefits section as descriptive text. The instruction: include Benefits section only if posting actually states them. The posting does state benefits (the clinic etc). The "Why Join Us?" is more about role appeal but could be considered part of Benefits? Might be okay to include as part of Benefits paragraph. But we should preserve all substantive information. So we can combine both paragraphs into Benefits section. Thus Benefits

    containing both sentences: "As a Mechanical Designer, you’ll have the opportunity to work on tangible products and solve practical engineering challenges. You’ll collaborate with experienced professionals across Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, Purchasing, and our vendor network—and you’ll see your work progress from an initial concept all the way through production. If you’re looking for a role where your design expertise, creativity, attention to detail, and problem-solving skills can make a direct impact, we invite you to apply. Onsite medical clinic for employee, spouse and family members, 18 and under, living at home; Medical, Dental, 401k, Life Insurance, Short and Long
