Hybrid$71k–$106k/yrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes a paragraph about F5 mission etc. That could be "About the role" or maybe "About F5". The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — 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. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. Content includes: - Intro paragraph about F5 mission (maybe "About the role" or "About F5"). - Position Summary: "F5 is seeking a Product Marketing Manager I to help bring our AI security portfolio to market..." etc. - Primary Responsibilities (list of duties) - Core Competencies (list of skills/competencies) - Qualifications (list of requirements) - Physical Demands and Work Environment (maybe not needed as separate section? Could be part of Qualifications? But it's a separate block; we could include as "Work Environment" but not in given list. The instruction says we can use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It doesn't forbid other headings? It says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely we should stick to those headings where applicable. Physical Demands could be omitted or merged into Qualifications? But it's substantive. Could we put under "Requirements"? Might be okay. - Pay: The posting includes two different pay statements: first: "The annual base pay for this position is $100,000 plus eligibility for F5's incentive/bonus program. This is a fixed, non-negotiable base salary for the stated location." Then later: "The annual base pay for this position is: $71,000.00 - $106,400.00". There's contradictory info. Both are substantive. We need to include Pay section only if posting actually states them. It does state pay. So we should include Pay section with the info. However we must not invent or summarize away detail. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include both statements? They are contradictory but both present. We could combine them as separate sentences. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can have a Pay section with both statements. - Benefits: The posting mentions incentive/bonus program, incentive compensation, bonus, restricted stock units, benefits, and link to benefits. So we have Benefits section content. - Schedule: Not mentioned explicitly; there is hybrid working environment, but no schedule details like full-time, part-time. Not specific schedule. So we should not create Schedule section. - Skills: Could be covered under Core Competencies. But we have a Skills heading optional. Could we put Core Competencies under Skills? The instruction list includes Skills as possible heading. We could map Core Competencies to Skills. But we also have Qualifications separate. Might be better to have sections: About the role (intro + position summary), Responsibilities, Qualifications (including education, start date, location, etc.), Skills (Core Competencies), Benefits, Pay. That seems reasonable. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for "Product Marketing Manager I". Good. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, scam warning, duplicated lines, application instructions like "Apply now and turn your internship experience into a full-time career!" That's application instruction; should be removed. Also "The Job Description is intended to be a general representation..." duplicated lines; remove. Also remove "Please note that F5 only contacts candidates through F5 email address..." etc. That's boilerplate; remove. Also remove "We’re thrilled to see you grow with us..." maybe that's not boilerplate but it's a closing statement; could be considered application instruction? It's more like encouragement; but it's not substantive about role. Might be considered fluff; but instruction says remove application instructions. This line is more like a motivational statement; could be removed as not substantive. Safer to remove. Also remove "Physical Demands and Work Environment" if we decide not to include as separate heading; but we need to preserve substantive info. Could incorporate into Qualifications or a separate "Work Environment" heading not in list; but instruction says prefer sections from list; but we could still add a heading not in list? It says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The e.g. suggests those are examples, not exclusive list. But to be safe, we could include a "Work Environment" heading as

    . However they said prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Adding another heading may be thin. Could we incorporate physical demands into Qualifications? It's about work environment, not qualification. Could be placed under "About the role"? Might be okay. Better to include a "Work Environment" section as

    because it's substantive. But the instruction didn't forbid other headings; just gave examples. I'd include it. But we need to avoid filler. Physical Demands and Work Environment includes: "Duties are performed in a normal office environment while sitting at a desk or computer workstation. Work requires substantial visual concentration on detail. Duties may require the ability to travel approximately 10% of the time." That's substantive. Thus we can have sections: About the role (intro + position summary), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills (Core Competencies), Work Environment, Benefits, Pay. We must not include Schedule. Now we need to extract content. Let's parse the posting. Intro: "At F5, we strive to bring a better digital world to life. Our teams empower organizations across the globe to create, secure, and run applications that enhance how we experience our evolving digital world. We are passionate about cybersecurity, from protecting consumers from fraud to enabling companies to focus on innovation. Everything we do centers around people. That means we obsess over how to make the lives of our customers, and their customers, better. And it means we prioritize a diverse F5 community where each individual can thrive. This position is exclusively intended for candidates who successfully completed the F5 Summer 2026 Internship Program and have received an invitation to apply for a return role." That's about F5 and eligibility. Could be part of About the role. Position Summary: "F5 is seeking a Product Marketing Manager I to help bring our AI security portfolio to market. In this role, you will support go-to-market strategy, messaging, and content for F5's AI Security Platform products and use cases – specifically, F5 AI Red Team.

You'll work under the guidance of senior product marketers while owning discrete deliverables of your own, translating technical capabilities into clear, compelling stories for security leaders, platform teams, and AI practitioners. Success in this role looks like strong writing, sound judgment, a bias toward collaboration, and a willingness to go deep on the technology." We can combine intro and position summary under About the role.

Note: The hybrid working environment appears also in Qualifications; but we also have Physical Demands and Work Environment separate. Might be overlapping. We could keep hybrid info in Qualifications (location) and physical demands separate. Now Benefits: The posting mentions: - eligibility for F5's incentive/bonus program. - You may also be offered incentive compensation, bonus, restricted stock units, and benefits. - More details about F5’s benefits can be found at the following link: https://www.f5.com/company/careers/benefits. - F5 reserves the right to change or terminate any benefit plan without notice.
