We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have sections: ABOUT SAR AUTOMATION (company description), THE ROLE (overview), WHAT YOU WILL DO (responsibilities), WHAT YOU BRING (requirements/qualifications), TRAVEL REQUIREMENTS, PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS, WHAT WE OFFER (benefits), plus maybe WORK AUTHORIZATION etc but we need to remove boilerplate like EEO, agencies, how to apply. Also we should not repeat job title as heading. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. However we need to map content to these headings appropriately. The instruction: "use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we should use those exact headings when appropriate. But we should only include a section when posting has real, specific content for it. So we need to decide which sections we have content for. We have: - About the role: we have "THE ROLE" description: "Designs automation cells, retrofits, and system reconfigurations: develops 3D models and detailed 2D manufacturing drawings for robot cells, end-of-arm tooling, fixtures, guarding, and auxiliary equipment, and creates and maintains the Bills of Materials that turn them into purchased and manufactured parts. Provides mechanical engineering support to internal teams and customers from concept through implementation." That's a paragraph. So we can have

About the role

with that paragraph. - Responsibilities: "WHAT YOU WILL DO" includes many bullet-like sentences. We can put as

• items. - Requirements: Could be "WHAT YOU BRING" includes Education/Training, Experience, Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities. We could split into Requirements (education/experience) and Qualifications/Skills. But we have headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide what to put. We have Education/Training, Experience, Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities. Could treat Education/Training + Experience as Requirements, Knowledge/Skills/Abilities as Qualifications or Skills. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine into Requirements (education/experience) and Skills (knowledge, skills, abilities). Or we could have Requirements (education/experience) and Qualifications (knowledge, skills). But we need to avoid filler. We also have Travel Requirements, Physical Requirements, What We Offer (benefits). Pay and Schedule not specified, so we should not include those sections. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Travel, Physical Requirements? The instruction list includes Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Travel and Physical Requirements not in list but we can still include if content exists? The instruction says use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says "e.g." meaning examples, not exclusive. So we can add other headings like Travel Requirements, Physical Requirements if needed. But we should avoid creating sections with filler. Travel and Physical have specific content, so we can include them. We must not include boilerplate like Work Authorization, EEO, Agencies, How to Apply. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include company description? The "ABOUT SAR AUTOMATION" is company overview. Should we include that? Possibly as part of About the role? But we could also include a section "About the company" but not in list. The instruction says use those headings for section headings; but we can also include other headings if needed? It says "use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests using those for typical sections. Safer to stick to those headings only. However we have substantive content like company description, travel, physical requirements, benefits. We could fit company description into About the role? Might be okay but it's more about company than role. Could we put it under About the role? The role description already given; we could prepend company description as part of About the role? Might be okay but could be considered mixing. However we need to preserve all substantive information; we could include a short paragraph about company under About the role heading. The instruction: "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 short

  or drop it." So we can include company description as a paragraph under About the role. Travel Requirements and Physical Requirements: we could incorporate them into Benefits? Not appropriate. Could we make a section "Travel" and "Physical Requirements" using

  even though not in the examples? The instruction says use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't say we cannot use other headings, but it's implied to use those for typical sections. Safer to include them as

  with appropriate headings like Travel Requirements and Physical Requirements. The instruction didn't forbid; it just gave examples. I'll include them. Benefits: we have "WHAT WE OFFER" includes competitive compensation, medical/dental/vision, 401k, PTO, sick days, holidays, secure position, flat hierarchies, ongoing training. We'll put as

  . We must not include Pay or Schedule sections because not specified. We must not include boilerplate like "Competitive compensation" is okay; it's specific enough. Now we need to format. Structure:
