We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. No job title heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. We need to parse the posting. Overview: "We are seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher who will focus on conducting, coordinating, and reporting complex research assignments related to advanced thermal and energy system technologies. This position resides in the Multifunctional Equipment Integration Group in the Thermal System Science Research Section, Buildings and Transportation Science Division, Energy Science and Technology Directorate, at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL)." That's about the role. Major Duties/Responsibilities: list of duties. Basic Qualifications: list. Preferred Qualifications: list. Special Requirements: includes PhD time limit, appointment length, letters of recommendation, security requirements. About ORNL: description of ORNL, benefits list. Pay: not mentioned explicitly. No pay info. So we should not include Pay section. Schedule: not mentioned. So no Schedule. Benefits: ORNL offers competitive pay and benefits programs... list of benefits. So we can include Benefits section. Skills: maybe we can extract from qualifications: communication skills, publication record, etc. Could be a Skills section. But we need to decide which sections to include: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe Basic Qualifications), Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications), Skills (maybe communication etc), Benefits. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to preserve all substantive info. So we need to include details: duties list, basic qualifications list, preferred qualifications list, special requirements (maybe as part of Requirements?), ORNL description and benefits list. We must not repeat job title. No Job ID. We need to use

for section headings. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We need to decide grouping. Possible sections: - About the role (overview) - Responsibilities (duties) - Requirements (Basic Qualifications + Special Requirements? maybe separate) - Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications) - Skills (communication, publication record, etc.) - Benefits (ORNL benefits) We need to ensure we don't duplicate content. Let's extract content. Overview paragraph: "We are seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher who will focus on conducting, coordinating, and reporting complex research assignments related to advanced thermal and energy system technologies. This position resides in the Multifunctional Equipment Integration Group in the Thermal System Science Research Section, Buildings and Transportation Science Division, Energy Science and Technology Directorate, at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL)." We'll put that in

    . Responsibilities: list: - conducting, coordinating, and reporting complex research assignments related to energy conversion systems including: - Prototype development - Material synthesis and analysis - Performance testing - Analysis of results - Preparing research publications - Prepare technical reports, peer-reviewed publications, presentations, and project deliverables for sponsors and stakeholders. - Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and engage with researchers, engineers, and stakeholders from universities, national laboratories, government agencies, and private industry. - Deliver ORNL’s mission by aligning behaviors, priorities, and interactions with our core values of Impact, Integrity, Teamwork, Safety, and Service. - Promote equal opportunity by fostering a respectful workplace – in how we treat one another, work together, and measure success. We need to preserve all. The first bullet includes sub-items. Could flatten. We'll create

    • for each duty. For the first bullet with subitems, we could either keep as one li with a colon and then sublist? Simpler: break into separate li items: "Conducting, coordinating, and reporting complex research assignments related to energy conversion systems including prototype development", etc. But we need to preserve detail. Could do nested lists? The instruction: use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. It didn't forbid nested lists. Could do outer li with inner ul. But safer to keep flat. Let's list: - Conducting, coordinating, and reporting complex research assignments related to energy conversion systems including prototype development - Conducting, coordinating, and reporting complex research assignments related to energy conversion systems including material synthesis and analysis - Conducting, coordinating, and reporting complex research assignments related to energy conversion systems including performance testing - Conducting, coordinating, and reporting complex research assignments related to energy conversion systems including analysis of results - Conducting, coordinating, and reporting complex research assignments related to energy conversion systems including preparing research publications - Prepare technical reports, peer-reviewed publications, presentations, and project deliverables for sponsors and stakeholders. - Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and engage with researchers, engineers, and stakeholders from universities, national laboratories, government agencies, and private industry. - Deliver ORNL’s mission by aligning behaviors, priorities, and interactions with our core values of Impact, Integrity, Teamwork, Safety, and Service. - Promote equal opportunity by fostering a respectful workplace – in how we treat one another, work together, and measure success. That's a bit repetitive but preserves. Alternatively we could keep first bullet as "Conducting, coordinating, and reporting complex research assignments related to energy conversion systems including: prototype development, material synthesis and analysis, performance testing, analysis of results, preparing research publications". That's one li. That preserves detail without repetition. Probably better. Let's do that. Now Basic Qualifications: - A Ph.D. degree in mechanical, chemical, materials, or electrical engineering, or a related discipline obtained within the last five years. - A minimum of 3 years of experience in (a) design and operation of experimental thermal/fluid systems, (b) mechanical/chemical systems and instrumentation, (c) fluid dynamics, combustion, and heat transfer, and (d) thermal and mechanical characterization. - Excellent written and oral communication skills. - Proven publication record. Special Requirements: - Applicants cannot have received their Ph.D. more than five years prior to the date of application and must complete all degree requirements before starting their appointment. - The appointment length will be up to 24 months with the potential for extension. Initial appointments and extensions are subject to performance and availability of funding. - Letters of Recommendation: Please submit three letters of reference when applying to this position. You may upload these directly to your application or have them sent to [instructions?]. Actually there is instructions about uploading documents. We might include that as part of Special Requirements? But instructions about uploading are application instructions, which we should remove per instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove the instructions about uploading documents. Also the "Letters of Recommendations: Please submit three letters of reference when applying to this position." That's application instruction; maybe we should remove? It's not exactly boilerplate but it's application instruction. The instruction says remove application instructions. So we should omit that line. - Security, Credentialing, and Eligibility Requirements: For employment at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), a Real ID compliant form of identification will be required. Additionally, ORNL is subject to Department of Energy (DOE) access restrictions. All employees must also be able to obtain and maintain a federal Personal Identity Verification (PIV) card as mandated by Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12) and Department of Energy (DOE) Order 473.1A, which requires a favorable post-employment background investigation. To obtain this credential, new employees must successfully complete and pass a Federal Tier 1 background check investigation. This investigation includes a declaration of illegal drug activities, including use, supply, possession, or manufacture within the last year. This includes marijuana and cannabis derivatives, which are still considered illegal under federal law, regardless of state laws. For Foreign National Candidates If you have not resided in the U.S. for three consecutive years, you are not eligible for the PIV credential and instead will need to obtain a favorable Local Site Specific Only (LSSO) risk determination to maintain employment. Once you meet the three-year residency requirement, you will be required to obtain a PIV credential to maintain employment. We need to preserve that substantive info. It's not boilerplate? It's security requirements. Keep. Now About ORNL: description and benefits. Paragraph: "As a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science national laboratory, ORNL has an impressive 80-year legacy of addressing the nation’s most pressing challenges. Our team is made up of over 7,000 dedicated and innovative individuals! Our goal is to create an environment where a variety of perspectives and backgrounds are valued, ensuring ORNL is known as a top choice for employment. These principles are essential for supporting our broader mission to drive scientific breakthroughs and translate them into solutions for energy, environmental, and security challenges facing the nation. ORNL offers competitive pay and benefits programs to attract and retain individuals who demonstrate exceptional work behaviors. The laboratory provides a range of employee benefits, including medical and retirement plans and flexible work hours, to support the well-being of you and your family. Employee amenities such as on-site fitness, banking, and cafeteria facilities are also available for added convenience. Other benefits include the following: Prescription Drug Plan, Dental Plan, Vision Plan, 401(k) Retirement Plan, Contributory Pension Plan, Life Insurance, Disability Benefits, Generous Vacation and Holidays, Parental Leave, Legal Insurance with Identity Theft Protection, Employee Assistance Plan, Flexible Spending Accounts, Health Savings Accounts, Wellness Programs, Educational Assistance, Relocation Assistance, and Employee Discounts." We need Benefits section: list of benefits. We should not include Pay section because no specific pay. Now Skills: maybe we can extract communication skills, publication record, etc. But those are already in qualifications. Could create Skills section for "Excellent written and oral communication skills. Proven publication record." But that duplicates. Better to keep them under Qualifications (Basic). However we need to follow instruction: Use sections only when posting has real specific content. We have Basic Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Could combine them into Requirements and Qualifications sections. Let's define: - About the role (overview) - Responsibilities (duties) - Requirements (Basic Qualifications + Special Requirements) - Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications) - Benefits (list) We might not need Skills separate. Now we need to ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now produce HTML. Structure:

        maybe we can keep as

        for prose. But special requirements includes multiple sentences; we can keep as

        . Alternatively we could split into list items for each requirement. But it's okay.

        Make sure to preserve all specifics. Now let's extract exact text.
