We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings where content exists. Must not repeat job title. Use for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have content.
From posting: we have Job Summary (Brief Description JOB SUMMARY...). That could be "About the role". Then Essential Job Functions (list of duties). Then Other Job Responsibilities (more duties). Then Minimum Job Requirements (requirements). Then Preferred Job Requirements (preferred). Then Physical Requirements (maybe could be under Requirements or separate? Not a standard heading; we could include under Requirements? But we have only allowed headings list; we could put Physical Requirements under Requirements or maybe under a separate section not listed? The instruction: use
. The duties are many; we need to extract them from Essential Job Functions and Other Job Responsibilites.
Essential Job Functions list includes many bullet-like sentences but not formatted as list. We need to parse them.
Let's extract:
Essential Job Functions:
- Curing Process - Tasks like drying, curing, conditioning, and monitoring moisture content reflect actual cannabis flower curing protocols, which are critical for potency, safety, and terpene preservation
- WIP Vault Operations - The inclusion of WIP (Work-In-Progress) vaults reflects how cannabis must be securely stored and tracked between stages — a requirement in nearly all regulated markets
- Compliance with Track-and-Trace Systems - References to METRC and state regulations directly address the industry's strict inventory tracking and reporting requirements
- Secure Handling & Regulatory Cleanliness Standards - Sanitation protocols, secure vault handling, and compliance mentions all reflect standard cannabis regulatory expectations (GMP, GLP, or equivalent)
- Cannabis Processing - Accurately debuck, trim (both machine and hand trim), hang harvested product in dry rooms, cure, grind, weigh, and package cannabis materials according to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
- Quality Control - Perform real-time visual inspections of cannabis for quality, consistency, and compliance with product specifications
- Trimming & Manicuring - Hand-trim flower with precision to maintain product integrity and presentation standards for retail
- Weighing - Measure cannabis products for distribution while maintaining aseptic techniques and preventing contamination
- Quality Control & Record Keeping - Conduct routine, real-time visual inspections of cannabis products during trimming to ensure consistency, quality, and compliance with product specifications. Accurately log weights and product data to support inventory tracking, regulatory compliance, and internal quality standards
Other Job Responsibilites:
- Adhere to All Safety and Compliance Policies - Follow company guidelines and state regulations regarding product handling, security, and cleanliness
- Collaborate with Team Members - Communicate regularly with cure and post-harvest team members to ensure consistent quality, pace, and compliance throughout the workflow
- Perform Other Duties as Assigned - Support the post-harvest department with general labor, packaging, or cleaning as needed based on departmental priorities
We need to keep each as separate . Might combine the dash description after hyphen as part of same bullet.
Now Minimum Job Requirements:
- Must be 21 years of age or older and be able to pass a background check
- Must be able to obtain and maintain a state Registered Agent Card or equivalent state credentials
- Must be able to work in humid environments with strong plant odors, and fluctuating temperatures
- Willingness to wear personal protective equipment (PPE) and to follow sanitation and safety standards
- Highly detail-oriented, proactive, organized and able to follow strict procedures and communicate effectively
- Strong observational skills to detect moisture inconsistencies, contamination risks or inventory discrepancies
- Comfortable using digital logs, weight scales and internal systems for data tracking and compliance documentation
- Demonstrated ability to follow instructions, meet deadlines, and work collaboratively in a fast paced, highly regulated environment
Preferred Job Requirements:
- Demonstrated experience with Metrc, or similar systems
- Familiarity with moisture control, terpene preservation and environmental standards during the cure process
- Understanding of the significant impact of preparation for downstream production
- Background in cannabis, food, pharmaceutical, or similar highly regulated manufacturing environment
Physical Requirements: Not a standard heading; we could possibly include under Requirements? But we have separate Requirements heading for minimum job requirements; we could add a subsection? But we must not invent headings not in list. Could we include physical requirements under Requirements as part of list? Probably okay to add as additional items under Requirements? But they are not job requirements per se but physical demands. Might be better to omit? However we must preserve ALL substantive information. If we omit physical requirements, we lose info. We could incorporate them under Requirements as additional items, but they'd be mislabeled. Could we create a separate section named "Physical Requirements"? Not in allowed list but maybe allowed as example? The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The "e.g." suggests those are examples, not exhaustive. So we could use other headings like Physical Requirements. Safer to use a heading that matches content. I'd include Physical Requirements as its own
contains the full sentence.
Let's list them:
1. Curing Process - Tasks like drying, curing, conditioning, and monitoring moisture content reflect actual cannabis flower curing protocols, which are critical for potency, safety, and terpene preservation
2. WIP Vault Operations - The inclusion of WIP (Work-In-Progress) vaults reflects how cannabis must be securely stored and tracked between stages — a requirement in nearly all regulated markets
3. Compliance with Track-and-Trace Systems - References to METRC and state regulations directly address the industry's strict inventory tracking and reporting requirements

12. Perform Other D
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have content.
From posting: we have Job Summary (Brief Description JOB SUMMARY...). That could be "About the role". Then Essential Job Functions (list of duties). Then Other Job Responsibilities (more duties). Then Minimum Job Requirements (requirements). Then Preferred Job Requirements (preferred). Then Physical Requirements (maybe could be under Requirements or separate? Not a standard heading; we could include under Requirements? But we have only allowed headings list; we could put Physical Requirements under Requirements or maybe under a separate section not listed? The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., implying those are examples but we could use others? It says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely we should stick to those headings only. So we need to map content to those headings.
We have:
- About the role: job summary.
- Responsibilities: essential job functions + other job responsibilities.
- Requirements: minimum job requirements.
- Qualifications: maybe preferred job requirements? Could be Qualifications.
- Skills: maybe not explicitly; we could omit if no specific skills section.
- Benefits, Pay, Schedule: not present, so omit.
We must not emit empty sections.
Thus output:
About the role
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely we should stick to those headings only. So we need to map content to those headings.
We have:
- About the role: job summary.
- Responsibilities: essential job functions + other job responsibilities.
- Requirements: minimum job requirements.
- Qualifications: maybe preferred job requirements? Could be Qualifications.
- Skills: maybe not explicitly; we could omit if no specific skills section.
- Benefits, Pay, Schedule: not present, so omit.
We must not emit empty sections.
Thus output:
About the role
... job summary text ...
Responsibilities
- ... each duty ...
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The "e.g." suggests those are examples, not exhaustive. So we could use other headings like Physical Requirements. Safer to use a heading that matches content. I'd include Physical Requirements as its own . It's substantive.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (minimum), Qualifications (preferred), Physical Requirements.
We could also include Skills if we want to pull out skills from requirements, but not needed.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO statement, company overview? The company overview is substantive? It's about the company; maybe we could include under About the role? But it's not about the role. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Company overview might be considered boilerplate? It's not legal but it's generic marketing. Might be considered not essential to the job posting. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; company overview is substantive about the company but not about the job. Might be okay to keep? However typical job postings include company overview; but they didn't list it as a section to include. The allowed headings don't include Company Overview. Could we put it under About the role? Might be stretching. Safer to omit company overview as it's not directly about the role. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." If we omit company overview, we lose info. But maybe it's considered boilerplate? Not exactly boilerplate but still generic. However many job postings include it; but they didn't give a heading for it. Could we include a
after About the role that includes company overview? That would be mixing. Might be okay to include as part of About the role paragraph. But the instruction: "Use
