Principal Mechanical Engineer
for each section.
We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. So no heading for title.
We need to include About the role (maybe "About The Role" from posting). Also "About The Company" maybe could be part of About the role? But we can include "About The Company" as separate? The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to those headings. Likely we should have About the role (includes description of role). Responsibilities (list). Requirements (maybe "Must-have Qualifications" and "Additional Requirements"). Qualifications (maybe education). Skills (maybe techniques). Benefits (list). Pay omitted. Schedule omitted.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not include boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Remove duplicated lines.
We need to preserve all substantive info: location, travel, full-time, etc. Could be placed in About the role or maybe a separate section? Not specified but we can include location in About the role paragraph.
Let's extract content:
From posting:
- Role: Principal Mechanical Engineer at VoltForce, Mount Laurel, NJ (onsite, ~10% travel). Full-time.

- VoltForce does not work on a Corp-to-Corp (C2C) basis.
Also location: Mount Laurel, NJ (On-site, Northeastern U.S., approx 10% travel). Employment type Full-time.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. So we will not have a heading for title.
We need to include sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits. Possibly also "About The Company" could be part of About the role? But we can include as a separate "About the Company" but not in allowed headings list. The instruction says use headings 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)." Likely they expect only those headings. So we should map content accordingly.
Thus:
- About the role: include description of role, company overview maybe? Could combine About The Company and About The Role into About the role section.
- Responsibilities: list as above.
- Requirements: could include Must-have Qualifications and Additional Requirements (citizenship, background check). Might also include degree and experience.
- Qualifications: maybe education (BS, MS preferred). But we already have degree in Requirements. Could separate: Requirements (experience, etc.) and Qualifications (education, skills). However we need to avoid duplication. Let's think: The posting has "Must-have Qualifications" which includes degree, experience, specific skills. Then "Additional Requirements" includes citizenship, background check. Then "What We Offer" includes benefits.
We could map:
- About the role: description of role and company.
- Responsibilities: bullet list.
- Requirements: bullet list of Must-have Qualifications (excluding degree? maybe include degree) plus Additional Requirements.
- Qualifications: maybe education (BS, MS preferred) and maybe skills? But we already have skills in Must-have Qualifications. Could treat Skills section for specific technical skills: FEA, mold flow analysis, CAD, etc. But the instruction says use Skills heading if there is real specific content. The posting mentions "Strong 3D CAD and FEA skills (SolidWorks and SolidWorks Simulation, Creo, NX, or equivalent)." Also "Knowledge of PLM systems, structured documentation practices, and medical device / ISO 8 cleanroom requirements." Also "Experience working with overseas suppliers." Could be skills.
But we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps better to combine Must-have Qualifications into Requirements and Qualifications sections: Requirements (experience, leadership, etc.) and Qualifications (education, degree). Skills (technical skills: CAD, FEA, mold flow analysis, PLM, GD&T, etc.). Benefits as separate.
Let's decide:
- About the role: paragraph(s) describing role and company.
- Responsibilities: ul list.
- Requirements: ul list of experience, leadership, NPI, etc. (maybe "10+ years mechanical design experience, with at least 5 in new product development, including leading increasingly complex projects or teams.", "Experience launching new production at the factory-floor level.", "Demonstrated ability to lead small engineering teams or project groups.", "Deep understanding of materials, mechanics, GD&T, and manufacturing processes.", "Experience working with overseas suppliers.", "Knowledge of PLM systems, structured documentation practices, and medical device / ISO 8 cleanroom requirements." plus citizenship and background check.
- Qualifications: ul list of education: "Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field, or an equivalent degree. Master's degree preferred."
- Skills: ul list of technical skills: "Strong 3D CAD and FEA skills (SolidWorks and SolidWorks Simulation, Creo, NX, or equivalent).", "Injection-molded part design, tooling considerations, and DFM/DFA carried through production launch.", "Knowledge of PLM systems, structured documentation practices, and medical device / ISO 8 cleanroom requirements." maybe also "Experience with mold flow analysis." but that's implied.
- Benefits: ul list: "Technical ownership of new products from first concept to production launch, and a team to lead.", "A comprehensive benefits package: medical, dental, and vision, company-paid life and disability insurance, flexible spending accounts, and an employee assistance program.", "Paid sick leave, vacation, and company-paid holidays.", "A 401(k) with a company contribution.", "VoltForce does not work on a Corp-to-Corp (C2C) basis." maybe also "It's ok if you don't check all the boxes..." but that's more encouragement; could be included as prose.
We need to preserve all substantive info. Also location and travel: maybe include in About the role as prose.
Let's craft HTML.
We'll output:

No Pay or Schedule sections.
Make sure not to include any boilerplate like "See roles like this", "Crosslinked Jobs/Thermoplastics/Principal Mechanical Engineer One of 4,199 polymer and materials roles on Crosslinked, each read for materials, degree, visa and salary." etc. Remove duplicated lines.
Check for any mention of pay: "This posting does not list pay." So we omit Pay.
Schedule: not explicit; we have full-time and on-site with 10% travel. Could be considered schedule but not explicit; we omit.
Now produce final HTML.
Let's write content precisely.
About the role paragraph: combine company description and role description.
Company: "Our client is an established, multi-site engineering and manufacturing company that designs and builds custom electro-mechanical products for customers in industrial, medical, and aerospace and defense markets. They work alongside their customers from early concept through full-rate production, pairing in-house design engineering with their own manufacturing floors, so engineers here see their work go from CAD to a shipped product.
