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 that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, no invented or summarized away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "If you’re unsure, apply." etc. Also remove "Accelerated Immersion for Senior talent..." maybe that's part of eligibility? It's specific content about onboarding residency; we need to keep it. Also "Travel, housing, and living stipend provided." Keep.
We need to parse the job description.
Let's extract sections:
- Job Description Summary (intro paragraph). Could be "About the role" maybe. The instruction says use

We need to parse the job description.
Let's extract sections:
- Job Description Summary (intro paragraph). Could be "About the role" maybe. The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can map.
We have:
Job Description Summary: "As a Principal AI Data Architect, you will define and evolve the enterprise data architecture needed to deliver trusted, scalable, secure, and cost-efficient AI products. This work starts with data. You will design systems that connect diverse data sources to AI agents and ensure the information is clean, accessible, and ready for advanced analytics. You will also shape the technical data engineering strategy, set clear architectural standards, and translate complex business priorities into robust, production-ready capabilities. You’ll partner with product managers, AI engineers, and security teams to ensure data governance, security protocols and compliance rules are enforced when Agents need access to data sources. Expect to drive strategy, provide leadership in data engineering, clarify outcomes, and shape standards."
That's about the role.
Then "Responsibilities" heading with bullet list.
Responsibilities content:
- Enable AI and GenAI use cases: Ensure data is usable for LLM and ML applications, such as RAG, vector-based knowledge retrieval, agentic workflows, AI-assisted reporting, or secure data access for agents
- Establish data trust, security, and responsible-AI controls including data quality and validation, lineage, metadata, privacy, RBAC/ABAC, auditability, retention, policy enforcement, and AI-output evaluation and monitoring.
- Drive technology, platform, and investment decisions by evaluating cloud data services, AI platforms, frameworks, and vendors; lead build-versus-buy assessments with explicit consideration of performance, resilience, security, operability, and total cost of ownership.
- Define the target-state AI data architecture and multi-year roadmap for data ingestion, integration, storage, modeling, semantic access, and AI consumption; establish reusable reference architectures and engineering standards across domains.
- Provide principal-level technical leadership across the organization by leading architecture reviews, resolving complex cross-domain design issues, partnering with product, engineering, security, and executive leaders
That's responsibilities.
Then "Required Qualifications" heading with bullet list.
Required Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Computer Engineering, Data Science or Information Systems or related field
- 10+ years of experience as a Data Architect, Data Engineer, ML Ops or similar role with enterprise data systems
- Demonstrated ability to lead complex technical decisions and influence senior stakeholders, with strong communication skills and experience establishing data governance, security, privacy, quality, lineage, and operational standards in enterprise or regulated environments.
- Demonstrated experience delivering data foundations for AI/ML or GenAI solutions, including one or more of RAG, vector databases, enterprise search, LLM evaluation, agentic workflows, feature/data pipelines, and model-serving integration
- Proficiency in Python and SQL, with experience in data processing libraries
- Hands on experience with MCP Servers and MCP Registries.
Then "Eligibility" maybe not a standard heading but we could treat as part of Requirements? The instruction says we can have sections like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Eligibility maybe part of Requirements? But we can include a short paragraph for eligibility info: "Must be willing to work out of an office located in Niskayuna, NY or Cambridge, MA." plus "Accelerated Immersion for Senior talent: Impact starts with a deep understanding of our core capabilities. For Cambridge, MA based resources, this position includes a required three-month (hybrid) onboarding residency at the GE Vernova Advanced Research Center in Niskayuna, NY. This immersive program allows our senior talent to establish a strong technical foundation, collaborate with our premier scientists and engineers, and align with our mission to lead the energy transition from the epicenter of our innovation hub. Travel, housing, and living stipend provided."
That is specific content; we could put under a section like "Eligibility" but not in the list of allowed headings. The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies we should use those headings when appropriate. Eligibility could be part of Requirements or maybe we can include as a short paragraph under Requirements? But it's not exactly a qualification; it's location requirement. Could be under "Requirements". However we already have Required Qualifications. Could combine location requirement under "Requirements". But we have separate "Required Qualifications". Might be better to have a section "Requirements" for location and eligibility, and "Qualifications" for education/experience. But the instruction says we can have both Requirements and Qualifications sections. So we can split: Requirements: location, willingness to work office, accelerated immersion etc. Qualifications: education, experience, skills.
Then "Preferred Qualifications" heading with bullet list.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience developing on AWS Bedrock
- Deep hands-on proficiency in SQL and Python, plus practical experience with data-processing and orchestration technologies such as Databricks, RedShift, Snowflake, Kafka, Airflow, or equivalent cloud-native services.
- Experience with Ontologies and Semantic systems
Then benefits and pay etc.
Benefits: "GE Vernova offers a great work environment, professional development, challenging careers, and competitive compensation." That's vague; but later they list specific benefits: "Available benefits include medical, dental, vision, and prescription drug coverage; access to Health Coach from GE Vernova, a 24/7 nurse-based resource; and access to the Employee Assistance Program, providing 24/7 confidential assessment, counseling and referral services. Retirement benefits include the GE Vernova Retirement Savings Plan, a tax-advantaged 401(k) savings opportunity with company matching contributions and company retirement contributions, as well as access to Fidelity resources and financial planning consultants. Other benefits include tuition assistance, adoption assistance, paid parental leave, disability benefits, life insurance, 12 paid holidays, and permissive time off."
Also "Relocation Assistance Provided: Yes". That's a benefit.
We should include Benefits section with those specifics.
Pay: "For candidates applying to a U.S. based position, the pay range for this position is between $137,700.00 and $229,600.00. The Company pays a geographic differential of 110%, 120% or 130% of salary in certain areas. The specific pay offered may be influenced by a variety of factors, including the candidate’s experience, education, and skill set. Bonus eligibility: discretionary annual bonus."
That's specific pay info; include Pay section.
Schedule: Not mentioned; no schedule info. So we should not create Schedule section.
Also we need to remove boilerplate: EEO statements, legal disclaimers, "GE Vernova is an Equal Opportunity Employer..." etc. Also "GE Vernova will only employ those who are legally authorized to work in the United States for this opening." etc. Also "Any offer of employment is conditioned upon the successful completion of a drug screen (as applicable)." Also "This posting is expected to remain open for at least seven days after it was posted on September 22, 2026." Also "GE Vernova Inc. or its affiliates (collectively or individually, “GE Vernova”) sponsor certain employee benefit plans or programs GE Vernova reserves the right to terminate, amend, suspend, replace, or modify its benefit plans and programs at any time and for any reason, in its sole discretion. No individual has a vested right to any benefit under a GE Vernova welfare benefit plan or program. This document does not create a contract of employment with any individual." All that is boilerplate; remove.
Also remove "Accelerated Immersion for Senior talent: Impact starts with a deep understanding of our core capabilities." Actually that is specific content about onboarding residency; we keep.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /, no markdown fences.
We'll structure:
About the role
