Principal Software Architect

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About The Job", "Why will you love this job?", "Why will you love being a part of Testlio?" includes subpoints: Great Culture, Remote Work, Investment in You, Winning Business. Then "What would your day look like?" (Responsibilities). Then "What do you need to succeed?" (Requirements/Qualifications/Skills). Then maybe "Benefits" from Investment in You (flexible PTO, stock options, $300 learning stipend). Also "Remote Work" maybe part of culture but not a separate benefits. The posting does not mention Pay or Schedule explicitly. So we should not create Pay or Schedule sections. Benefits: we have flexible paid time off, stock options, $300 annual learning stipend. Also maybe mention "Remote Work" as part of culture but not a benefit? Could include under Benefits? The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. Benefits: we have specific content: flexible paid time off, stock options, $300 learning stipend. So we can create a Benefits section with those items. We need headings:

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use appropriate headings based on content. We have sections: About The Job (maybe "About the role") - we can use

About the role

. Then Responsibilities (What would your day look like?) ->

Responsibilities

. Then Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: The posting lists "What do you need to succeed?" with Technical Skills and Human Skills. Could combine into Requirements or Skills. We could have

Requirements

with subpoints? But we need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can list each bullet as
• . For technical skills and human skills we can combine. We also have "Why will you love this job?" and "Why will you love being a part of Testlio?" These are more like culture/benefits. Could be part of Benefits or separate sections like "Why you'll love this job" but not in allowed headings list. The allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should map content to those. So "Why will you love this job?" and "Why will you love being a part of Testlio?" could go under Benefits (culture, remote work, investment, winning business). But we also have a separate Benefits heading for tangible benefits. Could also create a "Qualifications" section for skills? But we have both technical and human skills; we could put them under Requirements or Skills. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (including both technical and human skills), Benefits (including culture, remote work, investment, winning business, plus tangible benefits). That seems reasonable. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip out the "What is the application process?" and "Interview Process" etc. Also "Diversity and Inclusion" etc. Also "To learn more, visit testlio.com." maybe not needed but it's substantive? It's a link; but it's not a list; we could keep as prose? It's not required but it's not boilerplate; it's a call to action. Might be considered application instruction? It's not exactly instruction to apply; it's just info. Safer to keep? The instruction: remove application instructions. That line is not an instruction to apply; it's just a link to learn more. Could keep as prose in About the role. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to keep details about Testlio's platform, the role description, responsibilities, requirements, benefits, culture, remote work, investment, winning business. Let's extract substantive content: Location: "This is a 100% remote role open to those who reside in the Eastern half of the United States". That's location info; we could include in About the role as a paragraph. About The Job paragraph: "Testlio’s fully managed crowdsourced testing platform, powered by our proprietary intelligence technology - LeoAI Engine™, integrates expert, on-demand testers directly into your release process. Ship faster and more confidently with global coverage across 600,000+ devices, 800+ payment methods, 150+ countries, and 100+ languages. To learn more, visit testlio.com.

  Then maybe a

  Why you'll love this job

  but not allowed heading. Instead we can incorporate into Benefits or About the role? But we have Benefits section for tangible benefits; we could also include culture etc under Benefits. However the instruction says use headings from list; we can still use other headings? It says "use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It gives examples but not exclusive list? It 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 to those headings. Thus we need to fit "Why you'll love this job" and "Why you'll love being part of Testlio" into Benefits section (or maybe About the role). Benefits section can include both tangible benefits and cultural aspects. That seems okay. Thus sections: - About the role (location + description) - Responsibilities (day-to-day) - Requirements (technical + human skills) - Benefits (culture, remote work, investment, winning business, plus tangible benefits) We must not create Pay or Schedule. Now format:
