Principal Proposal and Cost Modeling Analyst

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must remove boilerplate, cookie, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Keep substantive info. Let's parse the posting. Key info: - Date posted, country, location, role type hybrid, US citizenship required, security clearance none. - About RTX description (company overview) maybe part of About the role? The posting includes "At RTX, the world's largest aerospace and defense company..." This is company description; could be part of About the role or maybe not needed but it's substantive. We'll include under About the role. - "An excellent opportunity exists within the estimating organization for a Proposal Analyst." That's role description. - "This position will support the Naval Power estimating team for proposal efforts, as well as developing cost models and support. The chosen candidate will be responsible for the preparation of various types of proposals for development, production and competitive contracts including modifications to existing contracts. In addition, the estimating organization supports gate reviews, Government audits and negotiations with the customer. This role requires a high degree of independence, the ability to obtain program specific clearance(s) and perform work on-site at Raytheon facilities. This position is for 35 hours/week." - Then "What You Will Do" bullet list (actually sentences). We'll treat as Responsibilities. - Then "Qualifications You Must Have": bullet list. - Then "Qualifications We Prefer": bullet list. - Then "What We Offer": includes values, benefits list. - Then salary range: "The salary range for this role is 86,800 USD - 165,200 USD." - Also schedule: "This position is for 35 hours/week." That's schedule. - Hybrid info: "Hybrid: Employees who are working in Hybrid roles will work regularly both onsite and offsite. Ratio of time working onsite will be determined in partnership with your leader." That's schedule/role type. - Benefits: list of benefits. We need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must decide what goes where. - About the role: company overview and role summary. - Responsibilities: the "What You Will Do" list. - Requirements: maybe the mandatory qualifications (U.S. citizenship, security clearance none? Actually security clearance not required, but US citizenship required). Also maybe "Experience with Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint and/or other related tools", "Experience with proposal development, cost models, price buildup, and/or estimating and pricing processes". Those are qualifications must have. Could be under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction says use sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to split. We could treat Requirements as mandatory qualifications (must have). Qualifications as preferred qualifications. Skills could be specific skills like Excel, PowerPoint, ProPricer, etc. But we might combine. Better: Requirements: U.S. citizenship required, ability to obtain program specific clearance(s), work on-site, 35 hours/week? Actually schedule separate. Qualifications: Bachelor's + 5 years experience or advanced degree + 3 years experience. Skills: Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, ProPricer, federal proposal regulations (FAR, DFAR, TINA), knowledge of CAS, Raytheon Cost Estimating Manual, leadership, analytical abilities, meeting deadlines, teamwork, project management, organization, strong excel and power query skills. Benefits: list from "What We Offer": Trust, Respect, Accountability, Collaboration, Innovation (values) maybe not benefits but could be included. Benefits list: medical, dental, vision, life insurance, short-term disability, long-term disability, 401(k) match, flexible spending accounts, flexible work schedules, employee assistance program, Employee Scholar Program, parental leave, paid time off, holidays. Also annual short-term and/or long-term incentive compensation programs. Pay: salary range 86,800 USD - 165,200 USD. Schedule: 35 hours/week, hybrid (onsite/offsite ratio determined with leader). Also mention that role is hybrid. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, privacy policy, etc. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers. We must not include duplicated lines. We must not include cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. We must not create sections with filler text. Now produce HTML fragment. Structure:

We need to ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like "Learn More & Apply Now!" etc. Also we omitted the values list (Trust, Respect, etc.) maybe could be included under About the role or Benefits? The values are part of "What We Offer". Could be included in About the role as part of company culture. But we already have About the role with company overview. Could add a sentence about values. However we must not create filler. It's substantive. Let's add a sentence in About the role: "RTX values Trust, Respect, Accountability, Collaboration, and Innovation." Also we included "Ability to obtain program‑specific clearance(s)" which is from posting: "This role requires a high degree of independence, the ability to obtain program specific clearance(s) and perform work on-site at Raytheon facilities." Good. We also need to include that security clearance type is none/not required. But we didn't include that. Could add under Requirements: "No security clearance required for this position." However the posting says Security Clearance Type: None/Not Required; Security Clearance Status: Not Required. That's substantive. Let's add. Also we need to include location? The posting includes location but we are told not to put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; location could be part of About the role maybe. But location is metadata; we could include a short p with location. However instructions: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it." Location is minor metadata; we could fold into About the role paragraph. We also have date posted; could drop. Thus About the role paragraph: include company overview, location, role type hybrid, US citizenship required, no security clearance required, schedule 35 hrs/week maybe? But schedule separate. Let's craft About the role:

At RTX, the world's largest aerospace and defense company, 185,000 employees unite to solve the world’s most complex problems. The Proposal Analyst position supports the Naval Power estimating team in Tucson, AZ (US‑AZ‑TUCSON‑807A, ~1151 E Hermans Rd, BLDG 807A) in a hybrid work arrangement. U.S. citizenship is required; no security clearance is needed for this role.

That covers location and citizenship and clearance. Now Responsibilities: we need to capture all bullet points from "What You Will Do". Let's list them: - Be independently responsible for the development, analysis and completion of varying proposal types including the most significant proposals in terms of complexity and company importance. - Lead/contribute to the development of pricing strategies (this includes understanding customer care-about(s), potential future work, affordability initiatives, program financial objectives, risks, and opportunities) - Work with other functions from across the company to understand and evaluate the labor, material and other direct costs associated with proposed contracts and the associated program - Utilize company estimating and pricing programs and tools - Develop detailed Request for Estimates which are used to kick off proposals - Lead the development of Basis of Estimates to include tracking progress, validating and analyzing actuals, ensuring consistency across the program, and confirming the estimating approach is sound - Prepare and present Gate 4 charts for program / company leadership review of proposal information - Ensure full FAR compliance on all proposals; capable of providing compliance guidance on complex situations - Assess, develop and implement solutions leading to a thorough proposal submittal - Interface and coordinate with all levels of management within the program (this includes ensuring alignment on priorities, strategies, expectations, and status) - Perform detailed and complex analysis of inputs to ensure soundness in our estimates - Assist in training and supporting other estimators (FAR requirements, proposal process, etc.) - Effective planning and scheduling skills that lead to the completion of proposal efforts in accordance to customer and company requirements - Develop cost models - Train others in cost model functionality - Create tools for proposal analysis – including developing initial cost targets - Evaluate and innovate existing estimating tools We'll put each as

. Now Requirements: we have US citizenship, ability to obtain program-specific clearance(s), ability to perform work on-site, no security clearance required. Also maybe "U.S. Citizen, U.S. Person, or Immigration Status Requirements: U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are authorized to access information under this program/contract." That's covered. We could also include "Position Role Type: Hybrid" but that's schedule. We'll keep Requirements as:

• U.S.
