We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. First paragraph: "This position will offer you the ability to directly apply your knowledge of thermodynamics, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and power plant engineering You will be preparing calculations, specifications, and technical reports to support client recommendations and reviews, and will additionally conduct equipment sizing, optimization evaluation, and selection in response to project needs While supporting project teams with other Mechanical Engineers, you will be involved in system engineering, including the design, modification, and analysis of power plant mechanical systems There is the potential for you to travel to client and vendor offices for design reviews and to plant site locations for construction coordination and field verification of designs" That's description of role/responsibilities. Could be "About the role" or "Responsibilities". We need to decide. Usually "About the role" is overview, "Responsibilities" list duties. We have both overview and duties. Could combine into one section "Responsibilities" with list items. We need to use

for section headings. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must preserve all substantive info, not invent. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. At end there is "Equal Opportunity ..." which is boilerplate; remove. Also "Transparency Statement" maybe not needed? It's about compensation range; we have Pay section. The transparency statement is generic; we might keep only if it adds info? It says they disclose compensation ranges; but we already have Pay range. Could be considered boilerplate; but it's about compensation transparency. Might be considered not needed. Safer to omit. Also "About Sargent & Lundy" includes benefits info; we need Benefits section. Also "About This Business Unit" is about Nuclear Power Group; could be part of About the role? Might be considered extra info about the team; could be included in About the role or maybe a separate section? The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine About the role and About This Business Unit into a single "About the role" or "Overview". But we need to decide headings. We have Qualifications section: "Qualifications We do not sponsor employees for work authorization in the U.S. for this position." That's a qualification (citizenship/work auth). Also "Essential Skills And Experience" list. Also "Valued But Not Required Skills And Experience". Also "Technology & Innovation" paragraph about AI etc. Also "About Sargent & Lundy" benefits. Also "Compensation Range $62,998 - $90,586" and Transparency Statement. Also "About This Business Unit" description. We need to decide which sections to output. Potential sections: - About the role (overview + business unit maybe) - Responsibilities (duties) - Requirements (essential skills/experience + qualifications like degree, work auth) - Skills (valued but not required + technology interest) - Benefits (health & wellness etc) - Pay (compensation range) - Schedule (maybe not present; no schedule info; so omit) We must not create Schedule unless posting states it. No schedule info, so omit. We must not create Pay unless posting states compensation range; we have that, so include Pay. We must not create Benefits unless posting states them; we have benefits list, so include Benefits. We must not create Qualifications unless posting has qualifications; we have qualifications (degree, work auth, etc). So include Qualifications. We must not create Skills unless posting has skills; we have essential skills and valued but not required; we could combine into Skills section. We must not create About the role unless posting has overview; we have description of role and business unit; we can include About the role. Now we need to format. We must use

    for section headings. We must use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose, use

      . We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to remove duplicated lines. Let's extract content. First, role description paragraph: "This position will offer you the ability to directly apply your knowledge of thermodynamics, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and power plant engineering You will be preparing calculations, specifications, and technical reports to support client recommendations and reviews, and will additionally conduct equipment sizing, optimization evaluation, and selection in response to project needs While supporting project teams with other Mechanical Engineers, you will be involved in system engineering, including the design, modification, and analysis of power plant mechanical systems There is the potential for you to travel to client and vendor offices for design reviews and to plant site locations for construction coordination and field verification of designs" We need to split into sentences for readability but can keep as prose

      . Could also make list of duties: preparing calculations, specifications, technical reports; equipment sizing, optimization evaluation, selection; system engineering design/modification/analysis; travel for design reviews and plant site coordination. We'll decide to use

      • for duties. But the instruction: Use
        • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So if we make a list, we must use
          • . If we keep as prose, we must use

            . Which is better? The instruction says "for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". If we present duties as a list, we should use

            • . If we present as prose, we can use

              . The instruction doesn't forbid using

              for duties; but it says use

              • for any list. So we can choose either. To be safe, we can present duties as a list using
                • . That satisfies the rule. Similarly for requirements/qualifications: we can list. For benefits: we have a list; use
                  • . Now we need to ensure we don't lose any substantive info. Let's extract each piece. **About the role / Overview**: - "This position will offer you the ability to directly apply your knowledge of thermodynamics, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and power plant engineering" - "About This Business Unit Join Sargent & Lundy's Nuclear Power Group and be part of a team driving the future of clean, carbon-free energy. Since 1954, we’ve been a trusted leader in nuclear engineering, design, and licensing, with expertise spanning small modular reactors (SMRs), advanced reactor technology (ART), and first-of-a-kind commercial reactor restart projects.

We could include that as prose

                    under Pay. **Schedule**: none, omit. Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /, no markdown fences. We'll produce something like:
