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 with real content. No job title heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate. We need to parse the posting. Content: Intro paragraphs: "We are looking for a PLM Configuration Specialist to support the delivery, enhancement, and ongoing maintenance of business-critical systems and processes. This role will act as a liaison between business stakeholders and technical teams, helping define requirements, support issue resolution, document workflows, assist with testing, and help ensure solutions align with business goals. The Business Analyst function serves as a systems specialist and partner between the business and technical teams, with a strong focus on requirements gathering, clarity of scope, and efficient delivery. This is a great opportunity for someone early in their career who is analytical, organized, technically curious, and excited to learn how enterprise systems support functions such as merchandising, product creation, planning, production, operations, and related business workflows. The role is well aligned to teams that support PLM, ERP, integrations, and operational process improvements." That's prose about the role. Could be "About the role" section. Then "Key Responsibilities" list bullet points. Then "Mandatory Qualifications" paragraph: "Should have prior PLM system configuration experience for at least ten years and be able to configure the PLM system independently with minimal KT.Retail or Apparel or fashion industry experience is a must-have." Actually weird phrasing: "Should have prior PLM system configuration experience for at least ten years and be able to configure the PLM system independently with minimal KT.Retail or Apparel or fashion industry experience is a must-have." Probably means: prior PLM config experience at least ten years, able to configure independently with minimal KT, Retail or Apparel or fashion industry experience is a must-have. We'll keep as is. Then "Qualifications" list bullet points (starting with "15+ years of experience..."). Then "What Success Looks Like" paragraph. Then "Preferred Attributes" bullet list. Then "Benefits" list: "401(k).Dental Insurance.Health insurance.Vision insurance." plus EEO line (should be removed). Also salary line: "The salary will be determined based on several factors, including, but not limited to, location, relevant education, qualifications, experience, technical skills, and business needs." This is pay info but vague; we should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It states salary will be determined based on factors, not a specific range. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Benefits we have explicit list, so we can include Benefits. Pay: they mention salary will be determined based on factors, but not a specific number or range. That's still stating something about pay, but it's vague. The instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state something about salary (that it will be determined based on factors). That is stating something about pay, albeit not a specific amount. Should we include Pay section? The instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Also "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. 'commensurate with experience', 'not specified', 'N/A', 'varies', 'TBD')". The phrase "The salary will be determined based on several factors..." is somewhat vague but not exactly placeholder like "commensurate with experience". It's a statement. However, it's not a concrete salary figure. Might be considered filler. Safer to omit Pay section, as they said prefer few substantive sections. We'll omit Pay. Schedule: none. Now "Additional Responsibilities" bullet list. Then "About Us" paragraph. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO line, maybe also "We are an equal-opportunity employer..." remove. Also remove duplicated lines? Not seeing duplicates. Now structure sections: - About the role (intro paragraphs) - Responsibilities (Key Responsibilities list) - Requirements? There's Mandatory Qualifications and Qualifications sections. Could combine into Requirements/Qualifications. But we have headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide. We have Mandatory Qualifications (a paragraph) and Qualifications (list). Also Preferred Attributes list (skills/attributes). Also maybe Skills from list of tools etc. We could make:

About the role

with intro paragraphs.

Responsibilities

with ul of Key Responsibilities and Additional Responsibilities? Might combine both. Better: Responsibilities section includes Key Responsibilities and Additional Responsibilities (both are responsibilities). Could combine into one ul. Then

Qualifications

with Mandatory Qualifications paragraph and Qualifications list (maybe combine). Could also separate Mandatory vs Preferred? But we have Preferred Attributes separate. We could do:

Qualifications

with mandatory paragraph and list.

Preferred Attributes

with ul.

Skills

maybe from list of tools etc? But the Qualifications list already includes many skills: experience with requirements documentation, testing, data analysis, process mapping, exposure to PLM, ERP, retail, supply chain, merchandising, apparel industry systems, familiarity with tools such as Asana, SharePoint, ticketing systems, Excel, reporting or BI tools, SQL or other technical/reporting skills. Those could be considered Skills. However we already have Qualifications covering them. To avoid thin sections, maybe we just have Qualifications and Preferred Attributes, and Benefits. But the instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose which to include. We have content for About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications (mandatory + list), Preferred Attributes (skills/attributes), Benefits. We could treat Preferred Attributes as Skills. Or we could have Skills section from the list of tools etc. But we already have Qualifications list includes those. Might be redundant. Better to follow the posting's headings: They have "Key Responsibilities", "Mandatory Qualifications", "Qualifications", "What Success Looks Like", "Preferred Attributes", "Benefits", "Additional Responsibilities", "About Us". We need to map to allowed headings. We can create:

About the role

(intro + maybe What Success Looks Like? Actually What Success Looks Like is about outcomes, could be part of About the role or separate. But we can include as part of About the role. But we must not repeat job title as heading. We'll produce:

About the role

with mandatory paragraph and list. Mandatory paragraph: "Should have prior PLM system configuration experience for at least ten years and be able to configure the PLM system independently with minimal KT.Retail or Apparel or fashion industry experience is a must-have."

Retail or Apparel or fashion industry experience is a must-have."
