Mechanical Designer/drafter

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions). Include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text not allowed. Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have: - About the role: description paragraph (Job Description). Should we have "About the role"? Yes, we have description. - Responsibilities: list of responsibilities. - Requirements / Qualifications: we have Essential Skills, Additional Skills & Qualifications, Work Environment maybe. - Skills: maybe combine essential and additional. - Benefits: we have Benefits paragraph with list. - Pay: we have Pay And Benefits section with pay range. - Schedule: we have Work Environment mentions busy season extra hours, travel 15%, but not explicit schedule like full-time etc. Could include Schedule if there is info: "During the busy season from October to March, additional work hours are expected". Also "Work Environment" mentions primarily desk-based, travel 15%, etc. Might treat as Schedule? The instruction: Use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can include Schedule if there is schedule info. We have info about busy season extra hours, travel 15% (maybe not schedule). Could include Schedule heading with bullet points: "Busy season (Oct-Mar): additional work hours expected", "Travel up to ~15% of time to customer sites". That seems specific. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we cut out the "About Actalent", equal opportunity, accommodation, San Francisco Fair Chance, Massachusetts Lie Detector, Use of AI, etc. Also "Job Type & Location" maybe we keep location? It's substantive: "This is a Contract to Hire position based out of Louisville, KY." Could be part of About the role or separate? Not a heading; we can embed in About the role paragraph. "Application Deadline" is application instruction? It's a deadline; maybe considered application instruction? The instruction says remove application instructions. Likely remove "Application Deadline". Also "Job Type & Location" maybe not instruction but location is relevant; we can keep. "Work Environment" we could incorporate into Schedule or About the role? Might be its own section? Not in list of allowed headings but we could treat as part of About the role or Schedule. Since allowed headings are limited, we should try to fit into those. We have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can put work environment details under Schedule or About the role. We need to decide which sections to actually output. Let's gather content: About the role: The Mechanical Designer / Drafter develops detailed part, weldment, and assembly drawings for industrial mechanical equipment, including drying equipment, conveyors, air filtration systems, and pneumatic and hydraulic equipment. The role focuses primarily on component and assembly-level design rather than full systems, with approximately 90% of the workday spent at a CAD workstation using AutoCAD and Autodesk Inventor. This position supports engineering and fabrication teams by producing accurate, manufacturable drawings, maintaining engineering documentation, and assisting with measurements, reverse-engineering, and project coordination. Also mention Contract to Hire based out of Louisville, KY. Responsibilities: list bullet points from "Responsibilities" section. Requirements / Qualifications: Could combine Essential Skills and Additional Skills & Qualifications. But we have separate headings allowed: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide. Perhaps we output Requirements (list of essential skills) and Qualifications (additional skills & qualifications). Or we could output Skills (combined). The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine into Skills section only, and omit Requirements and Qualifications if they'd be thin. But we have substantive content for both essential and additional. Could make a Skills section that includes both essential and additional skills as bullet lists. That would be one section. We also need Benefits section: list of benefits. Pay section: pay range. Schedule section: busy season extra hours, travel 15%, maybe also mention primarily desk-based, 90% CAD workstation. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no

Work Environment: we already captured some in Schedule; but we also have: "The role is primarily desk-based, with the Mechanical Designer / Drafter working at a CAD workstation in a dedicated corner or individual workspace for the majority of the day. The environment emphasizes focused, heads-down work, where the individual receives direction for the day, executes assigned tasks, and proactively reaches out with questions as needed rather than seeking frequent social interaction during work time. The position involves close collaboration with engineering and fabrication teams and occasional visits to customer sites, with approximately 15% travel required for on-site measurements and verification of equipment. During the busy season from October to March, additional work hours are expected to meet project demands. The organization offers a relaxed culture and values long-term employees, with many tenured team members and a reputation as a supportive place to work. The broader group includes several related companies serving the asphalt plant industry, sharing resources and maintaining a dynamic, fluid structure. Benefits include a strong health benefits plan, six paid holidays, and paid time off, contributing to a stable and attractive work environment. The company is transitioning from a slightly cramped office into a new, more spacious facility, providing an improved workspace for employees." We already captured benefits separately; we might incorporate relaxed culture etc. But we can include in About the role or maybe a separate section? Not allowed headings besides those. Could incorporate into About the role as extra sentences. Benefits list: from Pay And Benefits section: "Benefits include a strong health benefits plan, six paid holidays, and paid time off, contributing to a stable and attractive work environment." Then list: Medical, dental & vision; Critical Illness, Accident, and Hospital; 401(k) Retirement Plan – Pre-tax and Roth post-tax contributions available; Life Insurance (Voluntary Life & AD&D for the employee and dependents); Short and long-term disability; Health Spending Account (HSA); Transportation benefits; Employee
