We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where there is real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Let's extract content: Company intro: "Kemira is a global leader in sustainable chemistry for water intensive industries. For more than 100 years, our chemistry has advanced human progress and quality of life. We call it chemistry with a purpose, better every day. At Kemira, we foster a collaborative and inclusive work culture that empowers our employees to thrive and make a difference. Learn more about Kemira at www.kemira.com/careers ." That's about company; could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" heading is for description of role. The intro about company could be placed under "About the role" or maybe we could have a section "About Kemira"? But only allowed headings are given list. We could put company overview under "About the role" as it's about the role context. Or we could skip that heading if not enough? But we have responsibilities etc. Responsibilities: many bullet-like sentences. Let's list responsibilities: - Take ownership and management of the Distributed Control Systems for the Marietta, Ga, site. These systems include Siemens Simatic PCS7, Simatic Batch, WEB App, SIS, PH/IS, and the AVEVA/OSI PI system. - Maintain a plan to support and sustain process automation assets for the facilities (system upgrade planning, perform system back-ups for recovery and disaster recovery). - Serve as systems administrator for the process control area network. - Support identification and implementation of required cyber-security measures. - Serve as Process Automation Owner for the site facilities – taking full accountability for the automation improvement program. - Identify process automation improvement opportunities and provide value assessments and prioritization - Support the Marietta site day-to-day operations to meet business goals.

That's responsibilities. Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: The posting has "What You’ll Bring To The Team" and "Critical Success". Let's parse. What You’ll Bring To The Team: - Minimum of a Bachelor of Science degree (Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electrical / Instrumentation Certification is preferred). - Siemens PCS-7 Experience is required. - Previous experience in process automation design / development, implementation, and checkout is preferred. - Minimum of 3-5 years of experience in either process automation or manufacturing. - Excellent communication skills (written and verbal). - Ability to manage multiple projects/tasks at one time. - Familiarity with plant operations as well as project work in the process control discipline. - Highly motivated and results-driven individual with strong interpersonal skills. - Ability to interact with cross functional teams, engineering groups, plant operations, plant maintenance, and automation-electrical contractors. - Strong organizational skills.

Also "What You Can Expect From Us": includes Opportunities for personal and professional growth, Employment in a stable company..., Attractive benefits package, Positive work environment with a strong safety culture, Ready to create better every day? Join Kemira! etc. Also salary and benefits details. Pay: "The starting salary range for consideration for this position is $95,000 to $126,000 per year with opportunities for performance-based bonuses. The actual starting salary is determined by various factors, including but not limited to relevant employment history & experience, skill set/competencies, qualifications, and other business and organizational needs." Benefits: "We also offer a comprehensive benefits package which includes health insurance, paid time off, life/disability insurance and a 401k retirement plan (which includes a company match). We are leading the way to sustained fair pay in the workplace. As a Fair Pay Certified company, we are taking action to enable ongoing equal pay for equal work. This certification demonstrates our commitment to using trusted and transparent methodologies to analyze pay equity. We are proud to share this achievement as part of our dedication to a fair and equitable workplace for everyone." Also later: "Kemira is a global leader in sustainable chemistry for water-intensive industries. We operate globally and serve a wide range of customers including municipal and industrial water treatment companies and the fiber industry. Our solutions and services help secure clean water for millions of people every day and support our customers in advancing circularity and responsible resource use throughout their value chains. In 2025, Kemira reported annual revenue of EUR 2.8 billion with a global team of 4,911 colleagues. Kemira is listed on the Nasdaq Helsinki. www.kemira.com" That's company info again; could be placed under "About the role" or maybe we could have a separate "About Kemira" but not allowed. We'll include under "About the role" maybe as a brief description. We must not include boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. The posting includes "Ready to create better every day? Join Kemira! Please apply with CV no later than September 19, 2026 at MyKem/Careers. Keep up your career interest profile updated in MyKem in order to receive notifications of open positions." That's application instructions; we must remove application instructions. Also "Please apply with CV no later than September 19, 2026 at MyKem/Careers." and "Keep up your career interest profile updated in MyKem in order to receive notifications of open positions." Remove. Also "We are leading the way to sustained fair pay..." is part of benefits; keep. Now we need to decide sections. We have: - About the role: could include company overview and role summary: "We're now looking for a Process Engineer, Automation to manage our process automation activities for Kemira’s Chemical manufacturing facility in Marietta, Georgia. In this role, you will be involved in control strategy design, development of control software, as well as identification of process improvement opportunities through process control. This role will also prioritize implementation of automation work, and manage, as a team leader, the work of other automation resources including site engineering, plant technicians, and contractors for the facility." That seems appropriate. - Responsibilities: list as
  • ... - Requirements: maybe combine "What You’ll Bring To The Team" and "Critical Success" into Requirements or Qualifications. We could have Requirements (education, experience) and Skills (technical, soft). But we can also just have one "Requirements" section covering all. However the instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have: - About the role - Responsibilities - Requirements (including education, experience, skills) - Benefits - Pay Schedule: not mentioned; no schedule info, so omit. We must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. Pay is stated, Benefits is stated. So include Pay and Benefits. Now ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now produce HTML fragment. We'll need to wrap content in appropriate tags. Example:
