People Business Partner

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role (maybe Position Overview), Responsibilities (Essential Duties and Responsibilities), Requirements (Minimum Qualifications), Skills (maybe Preferred Qualifications?), Benefits (What We Offer), Pay (Pay Range), Schedule (Work Environment maybe includes schedule details). Must only include sections when posting has real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Must not include application instructions. Must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Must not create sections if content is placeholder. We need to extract content. Let's parse the posting: Title: People Business Partner (ignore as heading) Position Type: Full Time, Exempt (maybe part of schedule? but schedule section only if specific schedule details like hours, shift, etc. Could include "Full Time, Exempt" as schedule? Might be considered schedule info. But we have Work Environment details that include ability to work occasional extended hours etc. Could combine schedule info there. Company: Sharks Sports and Entertainment, LLC (maybe not needed as heading) Location: SAP Center Reports To: Senior Manager, Employee Experience Posting Dated: September 17, 2026 (metadata, drop) Pay Range: The pay range for this role is $80,000 - $86,000 per year Actual base pay will be determined based on permissible factors such as transferable skills, work experience, market demands and primary work location. The base pay range provided is subject to change and may be modified in the future. Position Overview: (the paragraph after "Position Overview"). Essential Duties and Responsibilities: list of bullet-like sentences. Minimum Qualifications: list. Preferred Qualifications: list. Work Environment: list of abilities. What We Offer: list of benefits. We need sections: About the role (maybe Position Overview), Responsibilities, Requirements (Minimum Qualifications), Skills (maybe Preferred Qualifications?), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections when there is real specific content. All these have content. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. So we must drop the sections about Equal Opportunity Employer, Notice to Recruiters, Summary, Pioneering Principles, Commitment to Diversity, etc. Also drop the "This position is not eligible for U.S. work authorization sponsorship." and the "Born in 1991..." summary. Also drop the "Our Commitment to Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging" etc. Thus we will produce HTML with headings

for each section. We need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. Thus:

  Schedule

  Work Environment paragraph? Actually schedule could be derived from Position Type and Work Environment. Could combine: "Full Time, Exempt. Ability to work occasional extended hours including nights, weekends, holidays (with advance notice). Ability to sit, stand and utilize a computer for extended periods..." etc. But we need to avoid filler. We'll put schedule details from Work Environment and Position Type. We need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Ability to sit, stand and utilize a computer for extended periods of time" etc. That's okay. We must not include "Ability to bend at the waist, reach overhead and lift up to 25 lbs with or without accommodation" etc. That's okay. We must not include "Physically navigate stairs at SSE facilities during normal work hours and events with or without accommodation". That's okay. We must not include "Ability to work occasional extended hours including nights, weekends, holidays (all with advance notice)". That's okay. We must not include "Ability to work in a cold environment for extended periods, as the position may support operations at ice rink facilities." That's okay. We must not include "Will be required to travel to other company locations, including visits to Sharks Ice locations in San Jose, Fremont, and Oakland." That's okay. We must not include "May be required to attend conference, events, and training sessions within Bay Area or in- or out-of-state locations." That's okay. Thus schedule section can be a

  combining position type and work environment details. But we must not duplicate content; we can include all those details in schedule. Alternatively we could make schedule section just the position type and work environment bullet list. Use

  • for list. But schedule is not a list of duties; it's more like attributes. Could still use
    • . The instruction: "Use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

        for prose." So schedule could be considered a list of schedule-related items; we can use

        • . Thus schedule section:

          Schedule

          • Full Time, Exempt
          • Ability to sit, stand and utilize a computer for extended periods of time
          ... etc. But we need to ensure we don't include filler like "with or without accommodation" maybe okay. We must not include any boilerplate like EEO etc. Now we need to extract the exact text for each bullet. Let's copy the relevant sections.
