We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "RELOCATION ASSISTANCE: Relocation assistance may be available CLEARANCE REQUIRED FOR START: Yes CLEARANCE TYPE: Secret TRAVEL: Yes, 10% of the Time". Those are metadata; we can fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it." So we can include a short paragraph with relocation assistance, clearance, travel. Probably include as a paragraph. We need sections: About the role (description paragraph). Responsibilities (list). Requirements (maybe basic qualifications). Qualifications (maybe preferred qualifications). Skills (maybe tools and experience). Benefits (benefits paragraph). Pay (salary ranges). Schedule (maybe travel? but schedule not given; we have travel 10% of time. Could treat as schedule? Not exactly schedule. The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. Schedule: we have travel 10% of time, not schedule like full-time/part-time. Could we consider schedule not present, so omit Schedule section. Benefits: we have benefits description. Pay: we have salary ranges. So include Benefits and Pay sections. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to use

for section headings. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We must preserve all substantive information. Let's extract: - Relocation assistance may be available. - Clearance required for start: Yes. Clearance type: Secret. - Travel: Yes, 10% of the Time. - Description paragraph: At Northrop Grumman... (the long paragraph about culture, etc.) This is about the role? It's generic company description. Could be About the role. - This position can be filled at either the Engineer or Principal Engineer level. Northrop Grumman Aeronautics Systems seeks a Engineer Navigation or Principal Engineer Navigation to support the Common Products - Navigation team in Rancho Bernardo, CA. The Navigation team is responsible for managing the navigation subsystem, including Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers, inertial measurement units (IMU), and radio-frequency equipment. The selected candidate will work independently and collaborate across multiple teams to deliver quality solutions. General duties for the candidate include flight/lab testing, Production/Field Support, anomaly resolution, and supplier management. - Essential Functions: The role is dynamic... list of responsibilities (some bullet-like sentences). We need to extract responsibilities list. List of responsibilities from "Some of those responsibilities are:" then bullet-like sentences: - Integrate navigation hardware, accounting for hardware capabilities/limitations, defining interfaces, and incorporating required redundancy. - Conduct investigations, system testing, and flight testing in lab environments. - Provide remote and on-site troubleshooting for Production and Field issues. - Support proposal development, technical planning, verification & validation, cost & risk analysis, and trade studies. - Ensure the logical and systematic conversion of customer or product requirements into total system solutions that balance technical, schedule, and cost constraints. Also earlier: General duties for the candidate include flight/lab testing, Production/Field Support, anomaly resolution, and supplier management. Could combine. We'll produce a

      list of responsibilities. - Basic Qualifications: two sets: for Engineer and Principal Engineer. We'll list both. Basic qualifications for an Navigation Engineer include a Bachelor's in Science, Technology, Engineering or Math (STEM) and at least 2 years of experience or a Master's Degree in STEM with no experience Basic qualifications for a Principal Navigation Engineer include a Bachelor's in Science, Technology, Engineering or Math (STEM) and at least 5 years of experience, a Master's Degree in STEM with 3 years of experience, or a PhD Degree with no experience Final US Government Secret clearance for consideration General understanding of the GPS system, inertial sensors, and RF devices (amplifiers, splitters, etc.) and how these concepts are interconnected Experience with the following software Tools: Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Project, Visio), MATLAB Experience with test equipment such as oscilloscopes, signal generators, signal analyzers, or multi-meters Ability to obtain and maintain Special Program Access We can treat these as Requirements (maybe basic qualifications) and Skills (tools/experience). But we need to follow headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We can split: Requirements = basic qualifications + clearance etc. Qualifications = preferred qualifications. Skills = tools and experience. Preferred Qualifications list: - Knowledge of navigation components, including receivers and inertial sensors - Experience with system redundancy and associated safety analysis - Familiarity with databuses and related protocols, such as MIL-STD-1553, RS-422, ARINC-429 - Experience performing system-level design/troubleshooting - Flight Test experience - Supplier management - Requirements verification testing Benefits: paragraph: "In addition, Northrop Grumman provides a variety of benefits including health insurance coverage, life and disability insurance, savings plan, Company paid holidays and paid time off (PTO) for vacation and/or personal business." Also earlier: "Depending on the position, employees may be eligible for overtime, shift differential, and a discretionary bonus in addition to base pay. Annual bonuses are designed to reward individual contributions as well as allow employees to share in company results. Employees in Vice President or Director positions may be eligible for Long Term Incentives." That's also benefits/compensation. We'll include in Benefits section. Pay: Salary ranges: Primary Level Salary Range: $91,800.00 - $137,600.00 Secondary Level Salary Range: $114,000.00 - $171,000.00 plus note about factors. We'll put that in Pay section. Schedule: Not given; travel 10% of time could be considered schedule? Might be considered under "Travel". But we have no explicit schedule like full-time, shift. Probably omit Schedule section. We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't repeat the description about position level twice. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's craft:

      Relocation assistance may be available. Clearance required for start: Yes (Secret). Travel: Yes, approximately 10% of the time.

We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work — and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history. This position can be filled at either the Engineer or Principal Engineer level. Northrop Grumman Aeronautics Systems seeks a Engineer Navigation or Principal Engineer Navigation to support the Common Products - Navigation team in Rancho Bernardo, CA. The Navigation team is responsible for managing the navigation subsystem, including Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers, inertial measurement units (IMU), and radio-frequency equipment. The selected candidate will work independently and collaborate across multiple teams to deliver quality solutions. General duties for the candidate include flight/lab testing, Production/Field Support, anomaly resolution, and supplier management.

      Responsibilities

      • Integrate navigation hardware, accounting for hardware capabilities/limitations, defining interfaces, and incorporating required redundancy.
      • Conduct investigations, system testing, and flight testing in lab environments.
      • Provide remote and on-site troubleshooting for Production and Field issues.
      • Support proposal development, technical planning, verification & validation, cost & risk analysis, and trade studies.

      • Flight/lab testing, Production/Field Support, anomaly resolution, and supplier management (general duties).
      But note we duplicated flight/lab testing etc. Might be okay but we could combine. However we should avoid duplication. The general duties already covered some of those. Maybe we keep only the list from Essential Functions and omit the general duties duplicate. Let's keep only the Essential Functions list; we can mention that general duties include those but not duplicate. To avoid duplication, we can omit the general duties bullet. Thus Responsibilities list as the five items.

      Requirements

      • Bachelor's in STEM with at least 2 years of experience, or a Master's in STEM with no experience (Engineer level).
      • Bachelor's in STEM with at least 5 years of experience, a Master's in STEM with 3 years of experience, or a PhD with no experience (Principal Engineer level).

      • Experience performing system-level design/troubleshooting.
      • Flight test experience.
      • Supplier management.
      • Requirements verification testing.
      But we have headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We used Preferred Qualifications as a separate heading; but we could treat that as Qualifications. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should have Qualifications heading for preferred qualifications. Skills heading for tools/experience. Requirements heading for basic qualifications and clearance etc. Thus we need:

      Requirements

      (basic qualifications + clearance etc.)

      Qualifications

      (preferred qualifications)

      Skills

      (tools and test equipment) We already have Skills as tools. Good. Now Benefits section:

      Benefits
