We need to output HTML fragment with sections only when there is real specific content. Use

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, no boilerplate. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. We need to parse the posting. Key sections: - About Rocket Lab (intro) maybe not needed as heading? 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). So we can have About the role heading and include the introductory paragraph about Rocket Lab and mission manager description. - Responsibilities: list of duties: "Management of multiple Rocket Lab customer missions, including technical, programmatic, and financial milestones. Oversee hands-on payload integration activities, including fit checks, dispenser and launch vehicle integration. Lead technical milestone reviews with customers such as mission design or test readiness reviews Assists business development with proposal input, lead generation, and technical sales engineering reviews. Responsible for development and verification of Launch Vehicle to Payload Spacecraft Interface Control Documentation (ICD). In constant contact with customers to answer questions with technical staff as required. Represent the company at public events, including conferences, industry forums, outreach and recruiting events. Helps lead Mission Integrators in expanding their mission management skillset" - Requirements: maybe "Prior mission management or mission integration experience required, preferably in support of suborbital and/or hypersonic payloads." Also "Active DoD Secret Clearance". Also "Bachelor's degree in an engineering or technical discipline – Mechanical, Electrical or Aerospace degree preferred." Also "5+ years of mission management experience/Technical program management experience". Also "Hardware integration or project management experience on either launch vehicles or spacecraft projects." Also "Ability to travel to launch pads, customer sites, and overseas (e.g. Rocket Labs New Zealand facility/launch site)." Also maybe "This position may require prolonged periods of sitting, standing, walking, computer work, and occasional exposure to moderate levels of noise, dust, and fumes in production areas" (that's more about physical demands, could be under Requirements or maybe Skills? We'll include under Requirements.) - Qualifications: The posting has "You'll Bring These Qualifications" and "These Qualifications Would Be Nice To Have". So we can separate Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. But headings limited to Qualifications (maybe combine). We'll put required qualifications under Qualifications heading, and nice-to-have under Skills? Or we could have Qualifications for required, Skills for nice-to-have. The instruction: use headings for those categories; we can decide. - Skills: maybe list of nice-to-have: "Experience with Suborbital and/or hypersonic payloads ITAR - Previous experience with ITAR & establishment of TAA's. Previous Mission Management or Mission Integration experience. Experience working with complex mechanical systems with your own hands. Ability to read mechanical and electrical drawings. Solid interpersonal and organizational skills, able to assist with closure of sales / customer capture. Ability to understand technical constraints relative to payload launch including results from mission specific analysis. Solid presentation and technical writing skills." - Benefits: The posting includes benefits description: "In addition to competitive base pay, you'll receive company stock as part of your total compensation package... Our comprehensive benefits package includes our industry-leading Employee Stock Purchase Program (with a 15% discount on company stock), top-tier medical plans (HMO, PPO, and a zero cost HDHP option with a significant HSA company contribution), dental and vision coverage, paid vacation and sick time, 11 paid holidays, flexible spending and dependent care accounts, paid parental leave, disability and life insurance, and a 401(k) retirement plan with company match.Additional perks include subsidized EV charging, onsite fitness centers (where available), discounted gym memberships, complimentary snacks and beverages, 50% employee discount on our popular merch store, and a variety of other employee discounts." - Pay: The posting includes salary ranges: "Level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, and experience. Total Compensation (base and equity): $137,075 USD - $196,275 USD Base Salary: $116,800 USD - $160,600 USD". Also "Anticipated annual equity grant value is designed around function, level, experience, and other factors; realized value depends on vesting and stock-price performance." So we can include Pay section with that info. - Schedule: Not mentioned explicitly. No schedule info. So we should not create Schedule section. - Also there is "What To Expect" paragraph about culture; could be part of About the role or maybe separate but not a standard heading. Could be included under About the role as prose. - Also there is "Important Information" about ITAR citizenship requirements etc. That's legal/boilerplate; we should remove per instruction: remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, also legal. So we should drop the ITAR citizenship requirements and equal employment opportunity etc. Also the accommodation contact etc. So we remove those. - Also "FOR CANDIDATES SEEKING TO WORK IN US OFFICES ONLY:" etc. That's boilerplate; remove. - Also "FOR CANDIDATES SEEKING TO WORK IN NEW ZEALAND OFFICES ONLY:" remove. Thus we keep only substantive content: intro about Rocket Lab, mission manager description, responsibilities, qualifications (required), nice-to-have (skills), benefits, pay. We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is "MISSION MANAGER". We'll not use that as heading. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll structure:

We need to ensure we preserve all substantive info. Let's extract details precisely. Intro: "About Rocket Lab Rocket Lab is the end-to-end space company building rockets, spacecraft, and critical subsystems that keep the world connected, protected, expand humanity’s reach to the Moon, Mars, and beyond. We move fast, build real hardware for meaningful missions, and make the impossible routine. Come shape the future with us. MISSION MANAGER Based out of one of Rocket Lab sites in North America, Mission Managers work directly with customers from signing of contract through payload integration to launch at either our Auckland, New Zealand or Wallops, Virginia launch site for Rocket Lab’s HASTE program. The ideal candidate is comfortable working with both commercial and government customers as well as frequent domestic and international travel. Prior mission management or mission integration experience required, preferably in support of suborbital and/or hypersonic payloads." We should not repeat the job title as heading, but we can include it in prose. However we should not duplicate lines. We'll keep the intro as is but maybe remove the duplicated "MISSION MANAGER" line? It's part of the posting; we can keep it as part of prose. It's not a heading. It's okay. But we need to avoid repeating the job title as a heading; we are not using it as heading. Now responsibilities list: Let's break into bullet points: - Management of multiple Rocket Lab customer missions, including technical, programmatic, and financial milestones. - Oversee hands-on payload integration activities, including fit checks, dispenser and launch vehicle integration. - Lead technical milestone reviews with customers such as mission design or test readiness reviews - Assists business development with proposal input, lead generation, and technical sales engineering reviews. - Responsible for development and verification of Launch Vehicle to Payload Spacecraft Interface Control Documentation (ICD). - In constant contact with customers to answer questions with technical staff as required. - Represent the company at public events, including conferences, industry forums, outreach and recruiting events. - Helps lead Mission Integrators in expanding their mission management skillset Note there is a missing period after "reviews" but okay. Now Requirements: The posting has "You'll Bring These Qualifications For a Mission Manager" then list: - Bachelor's degree in an engineering or technical discipline – Mechanical, Electrical or Aerospace degree preferred. - 5+ years of mission management experience/Technical program management experience - Active DoD Secret Clearance - Hardware integration or project management experience on either launch vehicles or spacecraft projects. - Ability to travel to launch pads, customer sites, and overseas (e.g. Rocket Labs New Zealand facility/launch site). Also later: "This position may require prolonged periods of sitting, standing, walking, computer work, and occasional exposure to moderate levels of noise, dust, and fumes in production areas". That's more about physical demands; could be under Requirements or maybe separate but we can include under Requirements. Now Qualifications (required) we already captured; but the heading "Qualifications" maybe for required qualifications. We'll put those bullet points there. Now Skills (nice-to-have): list: - Experience with Suborbital and/or hypersonic payloads - ITAR - Previous experience with ITAR & establishment of TAA's. - Previous Mission Management or Mission Integration experience. - Experience working with complex mechanical systems with your own hands. - Ability to read mechanical and electrical drawings. - Solid interpersonal and organizational skills, able to assist with closure of sales / customer capture. - Ability to understand technical constraints relative to payload launch including results from mission specific analysis. - Solid presentation and technical writing skills. Note there is a duplicate "Previous Mission Management or Mission Integration experience." which is also in required? Actually required already includes mission management experience; but it's okay to keep as nice-to-have. Now Benefits: paragraph: "In addition to competitive base pay, you'll receive company stock as part of your total compensation package, giving you a direct stake in our success. As we expand to new launch sites, groundbreaking missions, and global markets, your ownership has the opportunity to grow alongside the company.Our comprehensive benefits package includes our industry-leading Employee Stock Purchase Program (with a 15% discount on company stock), top-tier medical plans (HMO, PPO, and a zero cost HDHP option with a significant HSA company contribution), dental and vision coverage, paid vacation and sick time, 11 paid holidays, flexible spending and dependent care accounts, paid parental leave, disability and life insurance, and a 401(k) retirement plan with company match.Additional perks include subsidized EV charging, onsite fitness centers (where available), discounted gym memberships, complimentary snacks and beverages, 50% employee discount on our popular merch store, and a variety of other employee discounts." We need to keep the text exactly but can format as

. Ensure no extra spaces. Now Pay: paragraph: "Level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, and experience. Total Compensation (base and equity): $137,075 USD - $196,275 USD Base Salary: $116,800 USD - $160,600 USD Anticipated annual equity grant value is designed around function, level, experience, and other factors; realized value depends on vesting and
