Mold Technician III - 3rd Shift- 10pm-6:30am
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and 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 posting.

Please let us know if you require reasonable accommodations during the interview process. SMC Ltd. is an equal opportunity employer. M/F/D/V; this organization uses E-Verify. Applicants may be subject to pre-employment screening which may include drug screening, reference checks, employment verifications, background screening and/or skills assessments. #IND 3rd Shift- 10pm-6:30am
We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Also remove "Please let us know if you require reasonable accommodations during the interview process." That's maybe part of accommodations but could be considered boilerplate? It's about accommodations; but it's not a standard EEO line? Might be considered part of accommodations but we can keep? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The line about reasonable accommodations is not exactly EEO but could be considered part of accommodations request; but it's not a standard boilerplate? Might be okay to keep? However, they said remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. The line about accommodations is related to ADA, but we already have ADA Requirements section. The accommodations request line might be considered part of EEO? Safer to remove it.
Also remove "SMC Ltd. is an equal opportunity employer. M/F/D/V; this organization uses E-Verify. Applicants may be subject to pre-employment screening which may include drug screening, reference checks, employment verifications, background screening and/or skills assessments." That's EEO boilerplate, remove.
Also remove "#IND 3rd Shift- 10pm-6:30am" maybe schedule info? Actually that indicates shift schedule. It says "#IND 3rd Shift- 10pm-6:30am". That is schedule info. According to rule: include Schedule section only if posting actually states them. It does state shift: 3rd Shift- 10pm-6:30am. So we should include a Schedule section with that info. However we need to avoid placeholder like "varies". This is specific. So we can include a Schedule section with
Schedule
and 3rd Shift: 10pm-6:30am
. Or maybe we can include as part of Benefits? Better separate.
Pay: Not mentioned. So no Pay section.
Benefits: "What SMC has to offer:" list includes Clean, Climate-Controlled Environment; Stable schedule; Paid holiday and PTO; Health, dental, and vision insurance; 401(k) retirement savings; Life and disability insurance; Promotional opportunities; Training and career growth programs; Amazing co-workers; Tuition reimbursement; Employee Assistance Program. Those are benefits. So we need Benefits section with - ... each.
We also have About Us and Job Summary. Could combine into About the role? The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we can also use About Us? They said use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It's examples, not strict list. We could use About the role for About Us + Job Summary. Or we could have About Us and Job Summary separate? Better to follow examples: Use About the role heading for the descriptive overview. Then Responsibilities for duties. Then Requirements for essential qualifications? Or Qualifications for essential and desirable? They have Requirements and Qualifications separate examples. We could use Requirements for essential qualifications, Qualifications for desirable qualifications? Or combine? The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we have About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications (covering both essential and desirable), Benefits, Schedule. Also maybe ADA Requirements? That's a specific section about physical demands; could be part of Requirements? But it's detailed. Could be a separate section like Requirements? But we already have Requirements for qualifications. Might be better to have a section like Physical Requirements (ADA). However the instruction only gave examples; we can add other headings if needed, but must be substantive. ADA Requirements is substantive. So we could include a section like Physical Requirements.
But we need to avoid duplication: The ADA Requirements includes a lot of text; we should keep it.
We also have "Desirable Qualifications" list includes some repeats of essential qualifications (Knowledge of IQMS etc). We should keep them but note duplicates? We should preserve all substantive information; we can keep duplicates as they appear.
We need to remove duplicated lines: The posting has duplicated lines like "Knowledge of IQMS. Knowledge of the material handling system. Knowledge of molds and ability to clean them for production run." appears both in Essential Qualifications and Desirable Qualifications. We should keep both? The instruction: Remove duplicated lines. So we should eliminate duplicate lines within the posting. That means if the same line appears multiple times, we should only include it once. However we need to be careful: The duplicate appears in two sections; we could keep it under one section (maybe Essential Qualifications) and not repeat under Desirable Qualifications. But we need to preserve all substantive information; removing duplicates is allowed. So we can deduplicate.
Let's extract the content.
First, About Us paragraph:
"SMC, Ltd. is a globally recognized premium supplier to the medical market with locations throughout the world. People committed to speed, technology, and exceptional performance are the cornerstone of our organization. Comprised of dedicated people and decades of manufacturing experience, we have continued to experience strong growth and currently have outstanding career opportunities for equally dedicated people."
Job Summary paragraph:
"Setup, startup, and troubleshoot IMM, Robot, Secondary equipment, and processes. Position mentors and coaches Mold Tech Level One and Level Two. We welcome applications from Mold Technician candidates at all experience levels—from recent graduates to seasoned professionals. Whether you're just starting your career or bringing years of expertise, we’re excited to explore how you can contribute to our team."
We could combine these two paragraphs under About the role.
Now Responsibilities: list of duties.
Let's extract each duty sentence:
- Set up, start, and troubleshoot a variety of injection molding processes; molds, robots, dryers, mold heat/cool, and runner controllers and auxiliary equipment, interface with QA, and Tool Room as required.
- Assure molds are inspected and properly treated (cleaning, moisture prevention) after product run; communicate mold problems and opportunities to tool room via Maintenance Repair Order (MRO).
- Possess working knowledge of process monitoring equipment, i.e. RJG and Priamus brands.
- Troubleshoot common production problems, identify root causes and recommend or implement solutions.
- Acquire and Record Process Parameters in IQMS SPC format.
- Maintain tour ready production floorMaintain a positive and respectful attitude. (Note there is a missing space: "Maintain tour ready production floorMaintain a positive and respectful attitude." Should be two separate items: "Maintain tour ready production floor" and "Maintain a positive and respectful attitude." We'll split.)
- Regular attendance.
- Perform all requirements of Mold Tech Level One and Two job description.
- Understand and verify proper mold protection settings based on Level 1 and 2 training.
- Monitor the process, start up and shut down of assigned jobs.
- Follow schedule and maintain machines running at documented cycle.
- Setup of secondary equipment, to include, but not limited to end mills, hot stamping, pad printing, etc.
- Mentor and train Mold Technicians Level One and Two.
- Other duties as assigned.
We need to ensure each is a list item.
Now Essential Qualifications:
- High School Diploma or equivalent required.
- Must have successfully completed all SMC Mold Tech Level One and Two Requirements.
- Successful completion of RJG Fundamentals, Interpreting Graphs, Decoupled II Molding classes.
- Minimum of 1-year experience in Thermoplastic/LSR machine set-up and completion of SMC set-up training program.
- Knowledge of IQMS.
- Knowledge of the material handling system.
- Knowledge of molds and ability to clean them for production run.
- Must be mechanically inclined and be able to work in a fast-paced environment with the ability to adapt to constant changes.

- SMC Overhead Hoist certified.
- SMC Pallet Jack certified.
- SMC Lock Out, Tag Out certified.
- Knowledge of IQMS.
- Knowledge of the material handling system.
- Knowledge of molds and ability to clean them for production run.
We see duplicates: Knowledge of IQMS, Knowledge of the material handling system, Knowledge of molds and ability to clean them for production run appear in both. We'll keep them only once, perhaps under Essential Qualifications (since they are required). Desirable Qualifications will then have only the three certifications.
Now ADA Requirements: It's a long paragraph with multiple sentences. We need to preserve all substantive information. It includes multiple bullet-like sentences but not formatted as list. We could convert to - each distinct requirement? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The ADA Requirements is a list of requirements (physical demands). So we should turn them into a list.
Let's parse ADA Requirements text:
"ADA Requirements: Medium work: Exerting up to 50 pounds of force occasionally and/or up to
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
