MEP Inspector

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes POSITION SUMMARY, KEY RESPONSIBILITIES, MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS, PREFERRED CERTIFICATIONS, PREFERRED PROJECT EXPERIENCE, TECHNICAL SKILLS, SOFTWARE & DOCUMENTATION, EDUCATION, PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS, IDEAL CANDIDATE, COMPENSATION, About Thompson Holdings (maybe not needed? It's company description; could be part of About the role? The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). They gave examples but we can use other headings if appropriate. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not put Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO etc. Also remove application instructions (none present). Also remove duplicated lines. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include sections: About the role (maybe from POSITION SUMMARY), Responsibilities (KEY RESPONSIBILITIES), Requirements (MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS), Qualifications? Could combine? They said use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can also add other headings like Preferred Certifications, Preferred Project Experience, Technical Skills, Software & Documentation, Education, Physical Requirements, Ideal Candidate, Compensation, About Company (maybe not needed). But we should follow instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. However we need to preserve all info; we can group similar items. We could have sections: About the role (position summary), Responsibilities, Requirements (minimum qualifications), Qualifications (preferred certifications + preferred project experience + technical skills + software & documentation + education + physical requirements + ideal candidate), Skills (maybe technical skills), Compensation. Benefits, Pay, Schedule not present, so omit. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Compensation section: they have compensation description; we can include. We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft:

About the role

We are seeking an experienced MEP Inspector to perform field inspections and quality control activities for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems on commercial, industrial, institutional, and/or data center construction projects.

Responsibilities

• Perform field inspections of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing installations.
• Review construction activities for compliance with approved plans, specifications, submittals, and applicable codes.
• Inspect MEP rough-in, equipment installation, supports, hangers, sleeves, penetrations, piping, ductwork, electrical systems, plumbing systems, and associated components.

Compensation

Competitive compensation packages are available for experienced MEP Inspectors, particularly candidates with industrial, data center, commissioning, or mission-critical experience.

We also have About Thompson Holdings description; could be included as a section maybe "About the Company". The instruction says we can use headings like About the role etc. It didn't forbid adding other headings. But we should prefer few sections. However we have already many sections; maybe we can combine About Thompson Holdings into About the role? But it's separate company info. Could add a short paragraph under About the role? The instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies those are examples; we can also use other headings if needed. But we should avoid too many thin sections. We have many sections; maybe we can combine some: Qualifications could include preferred certifications, preferred project experience, technical skills, software & documentation, education, physical requirements, ideal candidate. That would be one big section but might be too thick. However instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we should aim for fewer sections. Let's try to consolidate. We could have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (minimum qualifications), Qualifications (preferred certifications + preferred project experience + technical skills + software & documentation + education + physical requirements + ideal candidate), Compensation. That's 4 sections. That seems good. We need to ensure we preserve all info. Let's craft Qualifications section with sub-bullets or paragraphs. We'll keep

• for lists inside Qualifications where appropriate. Let's draft:
