Product Development Engineer/Senior Product Development Engineer

We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: 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. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (EEO, legal, etc). Must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. The posting mentions "competitive salaries, excellent benefits, 401(k) plans and tuition reimbursement programs". That's benefits and pay info. It says "competitive salaries" (pay) and "excellent benefits, 401(k) plans and tuition reimbursement programs". So we can include Benefits and Pay sections. Schedule? Not mentioned. So omit Schedule. We need sections: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities (essential duties), Requirements (maybe education/experience?), Qualifications (maybe same as requirements?), Skills (maybe language, math, reasoning?), Benefits, Pay. We need to decide how to split content. The posting includes description paragraph about APC, location, summary, essential duties, requirements (qualification requirements), education/experience, language skills, mathematical skills, reasoning ability, physical demands, work environment, etc. Also benefits info at start. We need to avoid duplication. Let's extract: - About the role: Could be the introductory description: "At American Packaging Corporation (APC), you’ll find the packaging career you’ve been looking for. With competitive salaries, excellent benefits, 401(k) plans and tuition reimbursement programs, we nurture our employees while advancing and promoting diversity and inclusion. As the leading flexible packaging converter in North America for over a century, APC’s longstanding success is fueled from the inside out. We’re constantly seeking to improve our internal operations and were named a “Best of the Best” in the Best workplaces in the America’s awards for 12 years in a row. It’s how and why we engage the best and brightest talent to continue propelling our shared success into the future." Also location: "LOCATION: Cedar City, UT (Onsite Position)". Could include location in About the role. - Responsibilities: The essential duties list (starting "ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES include the following:" then bullet-like sentences). We'll put each as

. - Requirements: Could be the "QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS:" section? Actually that is titled "Requirements QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS:" Might be redundant. We'll treat "Requirements" as the list of qualification requirements (education/experience, language skills, mathematical skills, reasoning ability, physical demands, work environment). But we also have separate sections for Skills etc. Might be better to follow the instruction: Use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content accordingly. We can interpret: - About the role: company overview, location, summary. - Responsibilities: essential duties. - Requirements: maybe the "QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS:" paragraph that says "To perform this job successfully..." plus the bullet list of education/experience etc? But that's more qualifications. - Qualifications: maybe the education/experience, language skills, mathematical skills, reasoning ability. - Skills: maybe the specific skill sets: ability to read, analyze, write reports, presentation, mathematical operations, reasoning ability. But there is overlap. We need to avoid duplication and thin sections. Perhaps combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (which includes qualifications, skills, etc), Benefits, Pay. That would be 5 sections. But we need to use headings exactly as given: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. If we omit some, we must not emit heading with filler. So we can omit Qualifications, Skills, Schedule if no specific content distinct from Requirements. However we have content for skills (language, math, reasoning). Could we put those under Requirements? Probably yes. Then we can omit Qualifications and Skills headings. Benefits and Pay we have content. Thus final sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay. Check if any content for Benefits: "competitive salaries, excellent benefits, 401(k) plans and tuition reimbursement programs". That's benefits and pay. We'll split: Benefits: excellent benefits, 401(k) plans, tuition reimbursement programs. Pay: competitive salaries. We need to preserve all substantive info: location, summary, essential duties, qualification requirements (education/experience, language skills, mathematical skills, reasoning ability, physical demands, work environment). Also note about travel, etc. Let's extract essential duties list items: - Proficient in all requirements for the Product Development Engineer Role - Knowledgeable of multiple market and/or technology areas for flexible packaging - Ability to represent American Packaging Corporation with customers and suppliers - Build project plans and timelines with consistent successful outcomes - Project Management & Ownership of American Packaging Corporation needs regarding NBO activity, manufacturing and quality support, budgeting, and continuous improvement. - Material and process research regarding technologies that match the American Packaging Corporation’s capabilities or initiatives. - Collaborate with external technical resources on NBO activity, specification development, and material development initiatives. - Ensure the COE has all the necessary information, specifications, and knowledge to meet customer expectations. - Product Development, Customer interface, presentations, and primary responsibility for technical support of assigned accounts. - Participate in customer visits to the facilities. - Apply regulatory evaluations pertaining to packaging food safety. - Maintain an updated file on finished roll stock, pouch, die-lines, third party, perforation, and other required specifications as well as the particular inspection/testing procedures associated with each product. - Maintain an updated specification file on all raw materials (papers, films, inks, adhesives, etc.) used in their respective production process. - Prepare and manage in-plant technical trials through conducting pre-trial planning meetings, directing on-line manufacture of trial materials, documenting results of trials and ensuring trial results are met. - Research and qualify new and alternate materials. - Interacting with Customers, Management, Marketing, Sales, and Suppliers - Be results oriented and responsible for those results in developing new products and processes in response to customer input, and/or assigned duties. - Ability to successfully interact with all levels - hourly to Operations Manager, customers, and suppliers. - Ability to handle multiple projects/demands. Must be accurate, detail oriented with excellent follow up and project management skills - Participate in training, embrace concepts of and actively practice the SPOT Safety Program fundamentals to aid APC’s efforts to achieve a zero-accident rate. - Attend and participate in all company mandated meetings. - Business travel required. - Other Duties as Assigned We need to keep them as list items. Now Requirements: includes education/experience, language skills, mathematical skills, reasoning ability, physical demands, work environment. Let's capture: Education/Experience: Bachelor's degree (B. A.) in a Technical Field (Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Chemistry, etc.) from a four-year college or university; or equivalent combination of education and experience. Experience with printing and laminations for flexible packaging using materials such as papers, films, foils, and sealants is desired. Language Skills: Ability to read, analyze, and interpret general business periodicals, professional journals, technical procedures, or governmental regulations. Ability to write reports, business correspondence, and procedure manuals. Ability to effectively present information and respond to questions from groups of managers, clients, customers, and the general public. Skillful in presentation skills – both preparation and presentation. Mathematical Skills: Ability to apply mathematical operations to such tasks as frequency distribution, determination of test reliability and validity, analysis of variance, correlation techniques, sampling theory, and factor analysis. Reasoning Ability: Ability to solve practical problems and deal with a variety of concrete variables in situations where only limited standardization exists. Ability to interpret a variety of instructions furnished in written, oral, diagram, or schedule form. Physical Demands: While performing the duties of this job, the employee is occasionally required to stand, walk, sit, and talk or hear. The employee must occasionally lift and/or move up to 25 pounds. Specific vision abilities required by this job include color vision. Work Environment: While performing the duties of this job, the employee is occasionally exposed to moving mechanical parts. The noise level in the work environment is usually moderate. Also note about reasonable accommodations etc but that's boilerplate; we can keep but it's part of requirements? It's generic EEO; we should remove boilerplate. The instructions say remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. So we should omit the paragraphs about reasonable accommodations and EOE statements. Also the contact email for accommodation is boilerplate; remove. Thus we keep only substantive. Now Benefits: "competitive salaries, excellent benefits, 401(k) plans and tuition reimbursement programs". We'll separate. Pay: competitive salaries. Benefits: excellent benefits, 401(k) plans, tuition reimbursement programs. We might also mention "As the leading flexible packaging converter..." but that's about role. Now produce HTML:

About the role

At American Packaging Corporation (APC), you’ll find the packaging career you’ve been looking for. With competitive salaries, excellent benefits, 401(k) plans and tuition reimbursement programs, we nurture our employees while advancing and promoting diversity and inclusion. As the leading flexible packaging converter in North America for over a century, APC’s longstanding success is fueled from the inside out. We’re constantly seeking to improve our internal operations and were named a “Best of the Best” in the Best workplaces in the America’s awards for 12 years in a row. It’s how and why we engage the best and brightest talent to continue propelling our shared success into the future. LOCATION: Cedar City, UT (Onsite Position). SUMMARY: A Product Development position reporting to the COE Technical Manager. Primary responsibility is the development of new products of a complex nature, resolve customer issues (end use performance) while ensuring they can be successfully manufactured at the specific COE. Additional responsibilities are to provide professional and technical leadership toward successful project management of assigned projects many of which may be multi-COE, with minimal guidance on day-to-day activities with decisions that are consistent with the vision of American Packaging Corporation. Position will be filled at the level commensurate with candidate qualifications & experience.

But note: we should not include "Position will be filled at the level commensurate with candidate qualifications & experience." That's filler? It's somewhat generic but it's substantive? It's basically saying level based on experience; might be considered filler but it's actual statement. The instruction says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. The phrase "commensurate with candidate qualifications & experience" is similar to "commensurate with experience" which is considered filler. So we should omit that sentence. Also we should not repeat the job title. The summary includes "A Product Development position reporting to the COE Technical Manager." That's okay. We need to ensure we don't include filler. So we can keep the summary but remove the last sentence about level commensurate. Thus About the role paragraph: combine company overview, location, summary (without that sentence). Let's craft:
