Platform Engineering Lead

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 where posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's parse the posting. Key sections: - About the role: description paragraphs: "Advance how our customers operate while you advance your career..." etc. Could be considered About the role. - Responsibilities: list of duties: "Lead the Platform Engineering team responsible for end‑user platform engineering, image management, endpoint protection, software distribution, and desktop/mobile operating system engineering." etc. Also "ADDITIONAL ROLE-SPECIFIC RESPONSIBILITIES" with sub-bullets. - Requirements / Qualifications: Education, Experience, Required Experience, Preferred, Required Technical Skills, US Citizenship, background investigation, etc. - Skills: maybe separate but could be part of Qualifications. - Benefits: "GDIT IS YOUR PLACE: 401K with company match Comprehensive health and wellness packages Internal mobility team ..." Also later "Total Rewards At GDIT: Our benefits package ..." So we have benefits content. - Pay: "The likely salary range for this position is $128,039 - $173,229." - Schedule: "Scheduled Weekly Hours: 40 Travel Required: Less than 10% Telecommuting Options: Onsite Work Location: USA VA Arlington Additional Work Locations:" This includes schedule info. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must not include duplicated lines. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll produce sections in order: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Possibly Skills separate but we can incorporate into Requirements. But we need to follow instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have headings for each we include. We must not create a section if posting lacks real specific content. All these have content. We need to use

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

  for prose. Thus for each section we need to decide if content is list or prose. About the role: prose paragraphs. Could be multiple

  . Responsibilities: list of duties. Could be

  • items. Requirements: could be list (education, experience, etc.) or prose. We'll use
    • . Benefits: list. Pay: maybe a

      with salary range. Schedule: maybe a

      with hours, travel, location. We must preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail. Let's extract details.
