We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Also remove application instructions (Apply online...). Also remove duplicated lines. We need to parse the posting. Let's extract content: First paragraph: "Join a Team Where Engineering Excellence Drives Opportunity At Affiliated Engineers, Inc. (AEI), we bring together expertise and innovation to solve the most complex challenges. Since 1978, we’ve supported mission-driven organizations in designing systems and environments that advance society and improve lives. Today, with more than 1000 professionals across 23 offices, we help shape the future of healthcare, science and technology, energy, education, and other vital sectors. From elevating patient care in Mayo Clinic’s world-class hospitals to enabling discovery in high-containment laboratories for U.S. agencies and driving environmental progress with Microsoft’s renowned Thermal Energy Center, our work enriches the human experience, safeguards the environment, and pushes the boundaries of possibility. AEI consistently earns national recognition from leading industry publications, including Building Design+Construction, Engineering News-Record, and Consulting-Specifying Engineer, with distinctions such as being named the #1 Laboratory Engineering Firm in the nation and receiving multiple Best of the Best Project awards, underscoring the lasting legacy of our work. At AEI, you’ll join a collaborative community where your expertise fuels innovation, your ideas drive progress, and your work helps shape a brighter future." That's about the company. Could be "About the role" or "About AEI". The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have "About the role" heading and then prose. Next: "As a Mechanical Senior Designer in our Kansas City office, you will help us empower our clients to achieve energy-efficient building solutions, save global environments, and create a better, greener future for all. We are seeking an experienced Mechanical Senior Designer who is eager to provide leadership while mentoring a team of designers. This role will help drive consistency, collaboration, and design excellence across multiple projects. The ideal candidate has a proven track record of coaching and developing design professionals and enjoys supporting team growth." That's also about role. Then heading "Why We Need You" then list of responsibilities? Actually after that: "Why We Need You Responsible for layout and detailing of mechanical piping systems for buildings, equipment, and distribution systems. Support project phases from proposal through construction.Prepare detailed construction drawings for mechanical piping and pipe support systems utilizing specifications, sketches, detailed drawings, and design information according to project standards and procedures.Perform 3D modeling tasks to produce 2D drawings. Design and draft mechanical elements and details.Produce piping plans, sections, elevations, and isometrics. Produce equipment, general arrangements and elevations.Complete and review design drawings within scope, budget, and schedule.Assist with organizing and maintaining all revisions of project drawings, plot files, and project-related information in a logical and well-structured manner.Project work encompasses design and layout of mechanical systems and equipment for new and existing facilities. Project types include central energy and utility plants, manufacturing facilities, food processing facilities, universities, and hospitals." That's responsibilities. Then "Expertise Of Our Most Successful Senior Mechanical Designer Technical or Associate Degree in drafting technology from an accredited technical institution or college or equivalent drafting experience. Ability to collaborate with others (Project Managers, Engineers and Designers) in a multi-disciplined project team environment to resolve design or drawing issues.Expertise in computer operation for engineering design programs and in the current version of Autodesk AutoCAD, Plant 3D and/or REVIT." That's qualifications/requirements. Then "Effective Skills To Help You Flourish Autodesk Navisworks experience preferred.Experience in interpreting design criteria and converting it into specific layouts.Understanding of applicable design codes and specification requirements.Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail." That's skills. Then "When You Work Here, You Can Expect A flexible, collaborative environment where your well-being matters—because your best work happens when you’re supported.Real opportunities to grow—through mentorship, professional development programs, and exposure to high-impact projects across disciplines.To collaborate with inspiring teammates who challenge the status quo, foster innovation, and pave the way for future leaders.A benefits package that offers health, dental, vision, and retirement, a performance-based year-end bonus, and thoughtful perks tailored to your needs—whether that's a flexible work environment, wellness resources, or community-focused initiatives, we’ll continue to invest in." That's benefits (and maybe schedule? Not explicit schedule). No pay mentioned. So we can include Benefits section. We should not include Pay or Schedule unless present. No pay or schedule specifics. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO line at end: "AEI is proud to be an EEO/AA Employer/Vet/Disabled." Remove. Also remove application instructions: "Apply online at https://aeieng.com/about/careers/ If you know someone who would thrive in this role, please share this posting with them directly via email or through your LinkedIn network." Remove. Also remove duplicated lines? Not seeing duplicates. Now we need to decide sections. Potential sections: - About the role (or About AEI). The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can combine About the role and maybe a brief intro. We have a lot of introductory prose about AEI and the role. Could be under "About the role". We'll put that as a

. Then Responsibilities: list of duties. Use

  • . Then Requirements/Qualifications: maybe combine? The instruction says we can have Requirements and Qualifications separate but we should only include if real content. We have qualifications (degree, collaboration, expertise in AutoCAD etc.) and also skills (Navisworks preferred, interpreting design criteria, codes, problem solving). Could treat qualifications as requirements and skills as Skills. Thus: - Requirements (or Qualifications) heading: include degree, collaboration, expertise in AutoCAD Plant 3D/REVIT. - Skills heading: include Navisworks preferred, interpreting design criteria, understanding codes, problem solving, attention to detail. - Benefits heading: include flexible collaborative environment, wellness, growth opportunities, mentorship, professional development, high-impact projects, benefits package health dental vision retirement performance-based year-end bonus, thoughtful perks flexible work environment wellness resources community-focused initiatives. We need to ensure we preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep specifics like "Technical or Associate Degree in drafting technology from an accredited technical institution or college or equivalent drafting experience." etc. We need to format as HTML fragment only. Let's craft. First, maybe a heading

    About the role

    then a

    containing the introductory paragraphs about AEI and the role. We need to ensure we don't repeat the job title as heading (the page already shows it). So we don't add a heading for "Mechanical Senior Designer". Good. Now responsibilities: after "Why We Need You" we have a block of responsibilities. We'll put

    Responsibilities

    then
      with each duty as
    • . Need to split sentences. Let's extract responsibilities sentences: - Responsible for layout and detailing of mechanical piping systems for buildings, equipment, and distribution systems. - Support project phases from proposal through construction. - Prepare detailed construction drawings for mechanical piping and pipe support systems utilizing specifications, sketches, detailed drawings, and design information according to project standards and procedures. - Perform 3D modeling tasks to produce 2D drawings. - Design and draft mechanical elements and details. - Produce piping plans, sections, elevations, and isometrics. - Produce equipment, general arrangements and elevations. - Complete and review design drawings within scope, budget, and schedule. - Assist with organizing and maintaining all revisions of project drawings, plot files, and project-related information in a logical and well-structured manner. - Project work encompasses design and layout of mechanical systems and equipment for new and existing facilities. - Project types include central energy and utility plants, manufacturing facilities, food processing facilities, universities, and hospitals. We need to keep each as separate
    • . Ensure we don't lose any detail. Now qualifications/requirements: after "Expertise Of Our Most Successful Senior Mechanical Designer". Let's extract: - Technical or Associate Degree in drafting technology from an accredited technical institution or college or equivalent drafting experience. - Ability to collaborate with others (Project Managers, Engineers and Designers) in a multi-disciplined project team environment to resolve design or drawing issues. - Expertise in computer operation for engineering design programs and in the current version of Autodesk AutoCAD, Plant 3D and/or REVIT. We could put under

      Requirements

      or

      Qualifications

      . Choose Requirements. Now skills: after "Effective Skills To Help You Flourish". Extract: - Autodesk Navisworks experience preferred. - Experience in interpreting design criteria and converting it into specific layouts. - Understanding of applicable design codes and specification requirements. - Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail. Put under

      Skills

      . Now benefits: after "When You Work Here, You Can Expect". Extract: - A flexible, collaborative environment where your well-being matters—because your best work happens when you’re supported. - Real opportunities to grow—through mentorship, professional development programs, and exposure to high-impact projects across disciplines. - To collaborate with inspiring teammates who challenge the status quo, foster innovation, and pave the way for future leaders. - A benefits package that offers health, dental, vision, and retirement, a performance-based year-end bonus, and thoughtful perks tailored to your needs—whether that's a flexible work environment, wellness resources, or community-focused initiatives, we’ll continue to invest in. We could combine into
        under

        Benefits

        . Ensure we keep the specifics. Now we need to ensure we don't include any boilerplate like EEO, application instructions. Now produce HTML fragment. Let's construct:
