Mechanical Engineering Section Manager

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities? Actually we need to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use

for each heading. Use

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

  for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We need to parse the job description and decide which sections have content. We have: - About the role: The initial paragraph describing the role, team, impact, location, etc. Could be "About the role". We'll include. - Responsibilities: The bullet list of duties: "As a Section Manager, You Will Supervise a team..." etc. That's responsibilities. - Requirements: Required Education, Experience, & Skills. - Qualifications: Possibly Preferred Education, Experience, & Skills. - Skills: Could be part of requirements/qualifications. But we can combine. - Benefits: There's a paragraph about Employee Benefits. - Pay: There's Pay Information with salary range. - Schedule: There's description: "This position is currently working 3 days / week on-site in our York, PA office and up to 2 days / week remotely on a 9/80 schedule with every other Friday off." We need to ensure we don't create sections with filler. All these have real content. We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is "Mechanical Engineering Section Manager". We'll not use that as heading. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll structure:

  About the role

  ... prose ...

  Responsibilities

  • ...
  ...

  Requirements

  maybe list required education/experience/skills.

  Preferred Qualifications

  list preferred.

  Benefits

  ... maybe list benefits as

  but we can keep as

  but they said use

  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So benefits list should be
    .

    Pay

    ... maybe just the range.

    Schedule

    ... description. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract. First, "About the role" content: The first paragraph(s) before responsibilities. Original text: "Job Description Do you know what it is like to work on a team driven to make a big impact? It’s empowering. As a leader in our Mechanical Engineering team, you’ll manage a diverse group of driven engineers who design the products and systems that support enhanced military capabilities, protect national security, and keep critical information and infrastructure secure. With us, you’ll be able to make an impact while you grow in your career. We are currently looking for a Mechanical Engineering Section Manager located in York, PA able to support our mechanical engineering function across Combat Vehicle Product Lines and all Combat Mission Systems (CMS) programs. Here we value our workforce and their well-being. We prioritize safety, work life balance, and offer generous benefits. This position is currently working 3 days / week on-site in our York, PA office and up to 2 days / week remotely on a 9/80 schedule with every other Friday off. The Section Manager is part of Mobility and Core Mechanical Engineering and has responsibility for the capabilities, processes, and people management of a cross-site team focused on the design, development, and integration of various mechanical systems. The Section Manager will be the supervisor of record for individual contributors and will report directly to the Functional Manager for Mobility and Core Mechanical Engineering. The Section Manager collaborates with program leads for staffing needs, performs comprehensive planning relative to functional capacity and capability, and maintains the technical vitality of people, processes, and infrastructure for the functional discipline. The Section Manager collaborates with other CMS Engineering functional and section managers to ensure that design work is performed consistently with business management systems (BMS) product design procedures." We need to separate schedule maybe later. But schedule info appears in this paragraph: "This position is currently working 3 days / week on-site in our York, PA office and up to 2 days / week remotely on a 9/80 schedule with every other Friday off." We'll extract schedule for Schedule section, but we can keep some in About the role? Better to move schedule to its own section, and remove from About the role to avoid duplication. However we must preserve all substantive info; we can keep schedule info in Schedule section and maybe keep a brief mention in About the role? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." But we need to include Schedule section if posting actually states it. It does. So we should have Schedule section with that detail. We can still keep other info in About the role, but we should not duplicate the schedule sentence. We'll remove that sentence from About the role. Thus About the role paragraph will be everything except that schedule sentence. Let's craft About the role: "Do you know what it is like to work on a team driven to make a big impact? It’s empowering. As a leader in our Mechanical Engineering team, you’ll manage a diverse group of driven engineers who design the products and systems that support enhanced military capabilities, protect national security, and keep critical information and infrastructure secure.

That seems good. Now Responsibilities: The bullet list after "As a Section Manager, You Will". Let's extract each duty. Original: "As a Section Manager, You Will Supervise a team of 10-20 engineers and contractors of various experience levels in the design, development, production support, and integration of various mechanical systems for recovery, artillery, and combat vehicles.Develop engineering staff through work assignments and training to ensure technical competence and a competitive skill mix.Ensure efficient utilization of staff, manage budgets, and make strategic decisions about workforce balance and development.Hold monthly reviews with staff, provide performance feedback, and solicit input from stakeholders to foster collaborative career development.Provide mid-year and year-end performance assessments including providing positive and constructive feedback.Be responsible for ensuring the effectiveness and relevance of functional processes, as well as compliance with applicable standards.Integrate and standardize functional processes across Combat Mission Systems engineering, capture historical performance records, and maintain Engineering Estimating Tables and Cost Estimating Relationships.Ensure the availability and efficiency of functional engineering design and analysis tools and services.Provide technical expertise to programs and projects through participation in design reviews, life cycle management (LCM) reviews, and bid and proposal support.Staff, maintain and oversee the Hydraulics Lab operational capability located in York, PA, and oversee overhead maintenance expenses and Engineering Capital Investment Expenses (CAPEX) related to the lab. This role requires regular presence in a manufacturing or fabrication environment. The incumbent must be able to access and safely navigate production areas which may include climbing, kneeling, stooping, and working in confined spaces. Must also be able to comply with all requirements including the use of required personal protective equipment (PPE) in accordance with company policy." We need to split into list items. Each sentence separated by period. We'll create

    • for each. Let's list: - Supervise a team of 10-20 engineers and contractors of various experience levels in the design, development, production support, and integration of various mechanical systems for recovery, artillery, and combat vehicles. - Develop engineering staff through work assignments and training to ensure technical competence and a competitive skill mix. - Ensure efficient utilization of staff, manage budgets, and make strategic decisions about workforce balance and development. - Hold monthly reviews with staff, provide performance feedback, and solicit input from stakeholders to foster collaborative career development. - Provide mid-year and year-end performance assessments including providing positive and constructive feedback. - Be responsible for ensuring the effectiveness and relevance of functional processes, as well as compliance with applicable standards. - Integrate and standardize functional processes across Combat Mission Systems engineering, capture historical performance records, and maintain Engineering Estimating Tables and Cost Estimating Relationships. - Ensure the availability and efficiency of functional engineering design and analysis tools and services. - Provide technical expertise to programs and projects through participation in design reviews, life cycle management (LCM) reviews, and bid and proposal support. - Staff, maintain and oversee the Hydraulics Lab operational capability located in York, PA, and oversee overhead maintenance expenses and Engineering Capital Investment Expenses (CAPEX) related to the lab. - This role requires regular presence in a manufacturing or fabrication environment. - The incumbent must be able to access and safely navigate production areas which may include climbing, kneeling, stooping, and working in confined spaces. - Must also be able to comply with all requirements including the use of required personal protective equipment (PPE) in accordance with company policy.
