We need to decide sections.
We have:
- About the role: description paragraph (the first description about Northrop Grumman and the specific unit). Could be "About the role" or "Overview". We'll use About the role
with
containing that description. - Responsibilities: Essential Functions list. Could be
Responsibilities
with- items. Need to capture each bullet: concept development, problem solving, technical planning, design development and integration & testing of undersea hardware. Then sentences about translating requirements, collaborating, prioritizing, analyzing problems, communication skills, demonstrated experience in hardware design, understanding design for manufacturing, developing engineering processes, understanding engineering’s role for supporting small to medium production quantities. Might be many sentences; we can split into list items each as separate bullet. However we must preserve all substantive info; we can combine some sentences into bullet points but ensure no loss. Could create multiple
- each containing a sentence or phrase.
- Requirements: Basic Qualifications for Principal and Senior Principal. Could be
Requirements
with- for each qualification. Might need to differentiate two levels? Could list both sets.
- Preferred Qualifications: list.
- Benefits: benefits paragraph.
- Pay: salary ranges.
- Schedule: travel info? Travel: Yes, 10% of the Time. Also maybe schedule not given. Could include Travel under Schedule? The instruction says use
for Schedule section if posting actually states them. Travel is not schedule but maybe we can put under Schedule? Actually schedule refers to work schedule (e.g., full-time, shift). Not present. Travel is separate; maybe we can include under a heading like "Travel" but not in allowed headings list. The allowed headings are: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could put Travel under Schedule? Not ideal but maybe we can include Travel as part of Schedule? The instruction: "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., not exclusive; but we should only use those headings if we have content. Travel is not listed; we could omit Travel section if not fitting. However we must preserve ALL substantive information; removing travel would lose info. Could we incorporate travel into Schedule? Schedule could include travel percentage? Might be acceptable. Or we could create a custom heading but instruction says use those headings for section headings; maybe we can still use other headings if needed? It says "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." The e.g. suggests those are examples; we could still use other headings but they gave examples. Safer to stick to those. Travel could be placed under Schedule as "Travel: 10% of the Time". We'll do that. Also we have Relocation assistance may be available, Clearance required for start: No, Clearance type: Top Secret. Where to put? Could be under Requirements or Qualifications? Clearance is a requirement. Could be under Requirements as bullet. Relocation assistance could be under Benefits? Might be under Benefits as bullet. Or we could add a section "Details" but not allowed. We'll incorporate into Requirements (clearance) and Benefits (relocation). Or maybe under Qualifications. We also have "Ability to work on site at Annapolis, MD campus." That's a requirement. We have "US citizen with the ability to obtain a TS/SCI and pass a polygraph." That's also requirement. We have "Proficiency in using common engineering design, production, analysis, and office tools." requirement. We have "Preferred Qualifications" list. We have "Benefits" paragraph. We have "Pay" salary ranges. We have "Schedule" travel. Now we need to ensure we don't create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We'll produce HTML fragment.
