Mobile Team Tech Lead, New York
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It suggests those are examples; we can use other headings if appropriate? Probably stick to those categories. We have role description: "THE ROLE As a Mobile Team Tech Lead...". That's about the role. So heading "About the role". Then responsibilities: "What You'll Be Doing" list. Then "What Success Looks Like" maybe also responsibilities or expectations; could be part of responsibilities. Could combine.
Requirements: "What You Should Have" list. Also bonus points maybe "Preferred qualifications" or "Bonus points". Could be under "Qualifications" or "Skills". We'll treat as "Requirements" for mandatory, and maybe "Preferred Qualifications" for bonus? But instruction only lists certain headings; we can still add others? Safer to stick to given headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content.
About the role: include description of role, leadership, on-site, etc.
Responsibilities: list of duties: design, implement, deliver, test Android/iOS apps; contribute to adoption of strong architecture; improve process; stay on top of tech trends; experiment; etc. Also "What Success Looks Like" could be responsibilities or expectations; maybe treat as responsibilities.
Requirements: mandatory experience: 10-12+ years experience designing/commercial-grade software, 4+ years leading Agile teams; proficiency in Kotlin, native Android tools Jetpack Compose; experience in consumer banking including account management and onboarding; familiarity with integrating RESTful APIs and third-party libraries; knowledge of agile dev methodologies; understanding of CI/CD pipelines for mobile apps; understanding of mobile UI/UX principles; excellent communication skills.
Qualifications: maybe education: College degree in Computer Science or related field or equivalent experience. Also bonus points could be under Qualifications? Or Skills? Could treat bonus points as "Preferred Qualifications". But we have a heading Qualifications; we can put degree there. Bonus points maybe under "Skills"? Or we could add a separate section "Preferred Qualifications" but not in list; maybe better to put bonus under "Skills" as additional skills.
Skills: list of technical skills: Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, Swift/SwiftUI/UIKit (bonus), RESTful APIs, CI/CD, mobile UI/UX, Agile, etc. Also bonus: fraud management/KYC/AML, regulatory reporting, on-device biometrics, portfolio of released apps, AppConfig community standards, enterprise app distribution, leverage AI-assisted dev tools.
Benefits: mention discretionary bonus, total compensation package, salary range disclosure (NY). Also maybe "We are hiring across multiple levels for this job." Not a benefit. Could mention "Base salary is only one component of our total compensation package. Employees may be eligible for a discretionary bonus". That's benefit.
Pay: salary range disclosure as required by S9427A when hiring in New York. No actual numbers given. So we cannot create Pay section if no specific numbers. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It states "Base salary is only one component of our total compensation package. Employees may be eligible for a discretionary bonus, which is determined upon company and individual performance. Salary range disclosure as required by S9427A when hiring in New York." That's a statement about pay but no actual range. Is that enough to create a Pay section? It states they will disclose salary range as required, but not giving the range. Might be considered stating that they will disclose range, but not giving specifics. The instruction says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state something about pay (discretionary bonus, salary range disclosure). So we could include a Pay section with that info. However we should avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". This is not filler; it's actual statement about bonus and disclosure. So we can include Pay section with that text.
Schedule: "This is an on-site role. 5 days/week in the WTC area in NYC." That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section.
Benefits: we have discretionary bonus, total compensation package. Also maybe "We value curiosity, judgment, and ownership." Not a benefit. Could include "We are hiring across multiple levels for this job." Not benefit. So Benefits section: mention discretionary bonus, total compensation package.
Now we need to output HTML fragment with headings and - for lists,
for prose.
We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we preserve all substantive info.

The About the role paragraph already includes that sentence. We should remove it from Schedule or from About the role? The instruction: remove duplicated lines. So we need to keep only one occurrence. Let's keep it in Schedule section and remove from About the role. But About the role needs to mention on-site? Could keep a brief mention but not duplicate exact sentence. We can rephrase: "This is an on‑site role." without the schedule details. Let's adjust About the role paragraph to not include the exact same sentence. We'll keep a short phrase: "This is an on‑site role." and then schedule details in Schedule section.
Let's edit About the role paragraph: remove the duplicated sentence and replace with "This is an on‑site role." We'll keep the rest.
Now ensure we haven't lost any substantive info: we still mention on-site nature.
