We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, cookie/navigation/legal etc. So we need to extract content. Let's parse the posting: - Location: Position is based out of Point Blue's Headquarters in Petaluma, California. There is the potential to work remotely, with approximately two to three days per week in the Petaluma office. - Position Type: Full-time, Exempt - Deadline to Apply: Open until filled (maybe we can drop as it's application instruction? It's a deadline but maybe considered metadata; but instruction says do not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. Deadline is minor metadata; we could include in a short paragraph under maybe "About the role" or separate? Probably drop it as it's not essential? But we need preserve ALL substantive information; deadline is substantive? Might be considered application instruction; they said remove application instructions. So we can drop deadline. - Compensation and Benefits: Salary Range $110,000.00 to $130,000.00. Then details about vacation, sick days, holidays, benefits. - About Point Blue: description. - Job Summary: description of role. - Essential Responsibilities Include, But Are Not Limited To: list of duties. - Other Duties as Assigned: 10% etc. - Supervisory Responsibility: None. - Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities: list. - Certifications And/or Licenses: Valid California driver’s license etc. - Preferred Education And Experience: bachelor's degree equivalent, 5 years fundraising experience. - Work Environment & Physical Requirements: description. - Position Type, Expected Hours Of Work, And Travel: full-time exempt, standard hours 8am-5pm M-F, evening/weekend work as needed, travel throughout Bay Area, occasional beyond. We need to map to sections: About the role (maybe job summary), Responsibilities (essential responsibilities), Requirements (maybe knowledge, skills, abilities, certifications, education/experience), Qualifications (maybe education/experience?), Skills (maybe knowledge, skills, abilities), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not create sections with filler. So we need to ensure each section has real content. We can combine some. Let's decide sections: - About the role: could include job summary and maybe About Point Blue? Actually "About the role" is for role description; we can put job summary there. - Responsibilities: essential responsibilities list. - Requirements: could include knowledge, skills, abilities, certifications/licenses, preferred education/experience, work environment? Might be too much but okay. - Qualifications: maybe education/experience. - Skills: maybe knowledge, skills, abilities (overlaps). Might be redundant. Better to follow typical sections: About the role (job summary), Responsibilities, Requirements (knowledge, skills, abilities, certifications, education/experience), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to avoid duplication. Let's extract content: About the role (job summary): "The Philanthropy Officer manages and grows a portfolio of individual major donors and prospects to achieve fundraising goals identified in Point Blue's annual budget and strategic plan, with a particular focus on unrestricted giving. Serving as the primary Point Blue contact for their donor portfolio, this role develops and implements strategies that deepen donor engagement and increase philanthropic support. The Philanthropy Officer will steward a portfolio of existing donors while proactively identifying, qualifying, cultivating, and soliciting new major gifts and planned giving prospects, building a robust pipeline of future support.

Through personalized donor engagement opportunities and field experiences, the Philanthropy Officer plays a key role in connecting supporters to the science, partnerships, and on-the-ground actions that make Point Blue’s work possible." We could also include About Point Blue? Might be considered "About the organization" but not requested. Could drop. Responsibilities: list from Essential Responsibilities Include, But Are Not Limited To. We need to preserve all bullet points. The text includes many sentences; we can convert each sentence into

We need sections: Pay (salary range), Benefits (vacation, sick days, holidays, medical/dental, life insurance, disability, FSA, 401k), Schedule (hours, travel expectations). Could also include Work Environment maybe under Schedule? But schedule section is for hours and schedule details. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual salary range, so Pay section is valid. Benefits: we have concrete details. Schedule: we have standard hours, evening/weekend work, travel expectations. We also have location/hybrid work info; maybe could be under Schedule or About the role? Could include in About the role? But we have no specific heading for location; we could include in a short paragraph under About the role or maybe under Work Environment? But we don't have a Work Environment heading in the list; we could incorporate location info into About the role or maybe under Schedule? Probably better to include location/hybrid under About the role as part of role description. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID etc. We must not include application instructions or EEO. Thus final HTML fragment:

    Maybe combine Knowledge, Skills, Abilities, Certifications, Education/Experience, Work Environment? But we might split into Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities
