We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections when posting has real specific content.
We need to parse the posting.
First, there is introductory paragraph about company, mission, etc. That could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" maybe includes description of role. The posting includes description of role: "Because of our continuing growth and success, we are now looking to appoint a Principal Geotechnical Engineer. This will be a dynamic role, requiring collaboration...". Also later "As a Principal Geotechnical Engineer, your duties will include:" then list of duties.
So we can have:
About the role
with paragraph(s) describing role. ThenResponsibilities
with- list of duties.
Then
Requirements
maybe includes qualifications: Bachelor's degree, 15+ years, PE license, etc. Also "Qualifications" maybe separate. But we can combine. We need to decide which headings to use: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have content for: - About the role: description of role, dynamic role, collaboration, etc. - Responsibilities: list of duties. - Requirements: Bachelor's degree, Master's preferred, 15+ years, PE license, etc. - Qualifications: maybe same as requirements? Could separate: "Qualifications" could include experience with government agencies, long linear projects, energy projects, knowledge of software, etc. - Skills: maybe technical skills: geotechnical design, risk determination, business development, mentoring, etc. - Benefits: described: employee ownership, 401k, medical, dental, vision, disability, paid holidays, PTO, parental leave, company paid life insurance, personal and group performance bonuses. - Pay: salary range $163,000 - $200,000. - Schedule: hybrid approach, minimum three days per week in office. We also have location info, but we can drop as minor metadata. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Also not include application instructions, job ID, recruiter contact, etc. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting that are substantive. Let's extract specifics. From posting: Intro: "At Mott MacDonald, we trust our brilliant people to do brilliant things in engineering, management, and development services, supporting multisector project work in over 150 countries.

The person in this role will use their technical knowledge to solve problems and evaluate risks while collaborating with other technical experts on a diverse portfolio of projects. They will also be expected to pursue new opportunities and work to develop and mentor younger staff." Then duties list: "As a Principal Geotechnical Engineer, your duties will include: - Developing and leading project teams to deliver projects on time and within budget - Leading and managing staff engineers and supporting their career and technical development - Working within broader Mott MacDonald organization to promote technical excellence. - Providing technical and commercial input into project proposals - Developing relationships with other discipline leads and project managers to foster collaboration on multidisciplinary projects - Writing and reviewing reports, specification and contracts drawings for submission to clients (internal and external) - Liaising with various clients, attending progress meetings and producing reports on progress. - Providing expert engineering input into designs - Assessment of subsurface conditions and development of design criteria - Developing engineering concepts, and articulation of the concepts to the team - Identification, evaluation and communication of risks and potential risk mitigation options to clients and management." Then: "At Mott MacDonald, our team of professionals provides cost-effective and innovative engineering solutions for our clients located throughout North American with unprecedented success.

Then schedule/collaboration: "Collaboration at Our Core At Mott MacDonald, we believe great ideas happen when we’re together. Our hybrid approach centers on an in-office culture, with most of your time spent collaborating face-to-face and a minimum of three days per week in the office. We balance flexibility with connection, so you and your manager can choose how to meet client, team, and personal commitments." We need to avoid duplication: there is some repeated content about "At Mott MacDonald, our team of professionals provides cost-effective..." appears earlier but we can keep once. We must not include boilerplate like "Equal opportunity is the law..." etc. We must not include location list, job ID, recruiter contact, contract type, etc. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's structure:About the role
... paragraph(s) describing role ...
We need to include the description: "At Mott MacDonald, we trust our brilliant people...". That's generic company description; maybe it's okay as about the role. Also includes "Because of our continuing growth and success, we are now looking to appoint a Principal Geotechnical Engineer..." etc. We'll combine. We must not repeat the job title as heading; we already have About the role. We need to ensure we preserve all substantive info. Let's extract the substantive paragraphs for About the role: - "At Mott MacDonald, we trust our brilliant people to do brilliant things in engineering, management, and development services, supporting multisector project work in over 150 countries. As one of the largest employee-owned companies in the world, we pride ourselves on our ability to deliver exceptional outcomes through our network of 20,000+ talented consultants.

Then Responsibilities: list of duties. Then Requirements: Bachelor's degree, Master's preferred, 15+ years, PE license, etc. Then Qualifications: maybe "Established track record in geotechnical design based on project experience", "Experience working with government and local agencies, long linear projects... and energy projects", "Knowledge and experience in geotechnical design including shallow and deep foundations... including experience with commercially available software (Lpile, Slope/W, RSPile, Settle3, Open Ground etc.)", "Experience developing geotechnical business and client relationships", "Experience in geotechnical risk determination and management". Could also include "Pursue new opportunities and work to develop and mentor younger staff" but that's more duty. Then Skills: maybe "Technical knowledge to solve problems and evaluate risks", "Developing and leading project teams", "Leading and managing staff engineers", "Providing technical and commercial input into project proposals", "Developing relationships with other discipline leads and project managers", "Writing and reviewing reports, specification and contracts drawings", "Liaising with various clients, attending progress meetings and producing reports on progress", "Providing expert engineering input into designs", "Assessment of subsurface conditions and development of design criteria", "Developing engineering concepts, and articulation of the concepts to the team", "Identification, evaluation and communication of risks and potential risk mitigation options". But many overlap with duties. However we can still list skills separately if we want. But we need to avoid duplication? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." It doesn't forbid duplication, but we should avoid unnecessary duplication? It says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we might combine some. We could have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. That's enough. Qualifications and Skills could be merged into Requirements. But we have separate headings available; we can use them if we have distinct content. Let's see if we have distinct content for Qualifications beyond Requirements: The list after "We’re looking for an individual to join our team to continue this and invite applications from candidates with:" includes education, experience, license, track record, experience with
