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. Remove boilerplate like EEO, scam warning, etc. Also remove navigation/cookie etc. Must preserve all substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Let's extract sections:
- Intro paragraph about HDR culture: "At HDR, our employee-owners are fully engaged..." This is about the role? Could be "About the role" or maybe "About HDR". But we have heading "About the role". We'll put that intro there.
- Then description of candidate: "You are an inspiring leader..." This is also about role expectations, could go under Responsibilities or maybe "About the role". We'll decide.
Better to structure:

Also "Industry: Operational Leadership Schedule: Full-time Employee Status: Regular BusinessClass: Marketing and Admin Job Posting: Aug 13, 2026"
We need to include Pay and Benefits sections if present. Pay: we have compensation ranges for specific states. That's pay info. So we should include a Pay section with that info.
Benefits: we have description of benefits package. So include Benefits section.
Schedule: we have "Schedule: Full-time". That's schedule info. So include Schedule section.
Also maybe "Industry" not needed.
We need to avoid headings with filler like "commensurate with experience" etc. Not present.
We need to not repeat job title as heading.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
Let's decide sections:
- About the role (intro)
- Responsibilities (list)
- Requirements (maybe combine required qualifications)
- Qualifications (maybe preferred qualifications)
- Skills (maybe not needed; we could omit if no specific skills list beyond what's in qualifications)
- Benefits
- Pay
- Schedule
We need to ensure we only include sections with real content.
We have required qualifications content; we can put under Requirements
with .
Preferred qualifications under Qualifications
maybe.
Skills: we could omit if no explicit skills list; but we have "Strong business skills" etc. Might be considered skills. But we could incorporate into Requirements/Qualifications. Safer to omit Skills section if not explicit.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Now we need to format.
Let's craft HTML.
We'll need to escape any special characters? Not needed.
We'll output:
