Principal Software Engineer Lead

for section headings. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. We need to decide which content goes in which section. Let's craft: not needed; just headings and content. We'll output:

  About the role

  Do you want to help design and implement the next generation of cloud computing? Do you want to lead the expansion of compute architectures across the Akamai Connected Cloud? Join our Compute team! As a member of Akamai's Cloud Compute team, develop scalable services linking on-premises or cloud infrastructure to Akamai Connected Cloud. Contribute to expanding cloud compute products supporting AI and general compute on ARM and x86 workloads. This position provides opportunities to create production-quality software across multiple architectures and layers within Cloud Computing environments. Partner with the best This role provides an opportunity to make a significant impact on Akamai's growing cloud offerings. You must have a passion to get things done quickly and get them done right. As a Principal Software Engineer Lead, you will be responsible for:

  But note that the responsibilities list follows; we might want to separate responsibilities into its own section. So the About the role could end before the list. Actually the sentence "As a Principal Software Engineer Lead, you will be responsible for:" is introductory to responsibilities. So we could put that sentence in About the role, then responsibilities list in its own section. Thus About the role paragraph ends before the colon? Let's include the sentence up to "responsible for:" as part of About the role? Might be okay. Better: About the role: all paragraphs before the list. That includes up to "You must have a passion to get things done quickly and get them done right." Then we start Responsibilities heading. Thus:

  Benefits: We have two paragraphs about benefits. We'll combine into a

  maybe with

  for list of specific benefits. We have: "Benefits at Akamai: We support your health, well-being, finances, and life beyond work. See our benefits.

And later: "Akamai provides industry-leading benefits including healthcare, 401K savings plan, company holidays, vacation (in the form of PTO), sick time, family friendly benefits including parental leave and an employee assistance program including a focus on mental and financial wellness; Eligibility requirements apply." We can make a
