Program Manager I
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Also remove application instructions. The posting includes: Job Description paragraph about EMC team, role responsibilities, etc. Then Required Education, Experience, & Skills, Preferred Education, Experience, & Skills, Pay Information, Employee Benefits, About BAE Systems Electronic Systems (company description). Also some other paragraphs about posting duration etc (should be removed as boilerplate? It's not exactly legal/EEO but it's about posting duration; maybe consider it boilerplate? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The posting duration line is not those; but it's maybe not substantive? It's about the posting being active; could be considered not substantive about the job. Likely we should drop it as it's not about the role. Also "About BAE Systems Electronic Systems" is company description; could be considered "About the role"? Actually "About BAE Systems Electronic Systems" is about the company, not the role. The instruction says we can have sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content accordingly.
We need to decide which sections to include:
- About the role: could include the introductory paragraph describing the EMC team and role purpose. That's substantive.
- Responsibilities: list of duties: managing portfolio, leading cross-functional teams, supporting capture efforts, collaborating with customers, navigating ambiguity, managing risk, etc. Could be bullet list.
- Requirements: Required Education, Experience, & Skills (citizenship, clearance, degree/experience, organizational skills, interpersonal/leadership, communication, presentation). That's required.
- Qualifications: maybe Preferred Education, Experience, & Skills (Master's degree, active DoW Secret, customer interfacing, development/production programs, risk/opportunity management, proposal experience, technical degree, PMP, understanding DoD acquisition). That's qualifications.
- Skills: maybe we could separate but we already have skills in required and preferred. Could combine? But we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps we can have Requirements (required) and Qualifications (preferred). Skills could be omitted if covered.
- Benefits: Employee Benefits paragraph details health, dental, vision, 401k, etc. That's substantive.
- Pay: Pay Information with salary range. That's substantive.
- Schedule: Not mentioned; no schedule info (full-time implied but not explicit). So we should not include Schedule section.
We must not include headings with filler. So we will output sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay.
We need to use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep specifics: e.g., "US Citizen eligible for DoW Secret clearance with the ability to obtain and hold SCI and SAP clearances", "Bachelor’s degree with at least 8 years of experience or Master’s degree with 6 years of experience." etc.
We need to capture responsibilities list: managing a diverse portfolio of projects – including New Business Funds, IRAD efforts, Customer Funded programs (trade studies, prototyping, and risk reduction activities). Leading cross-functional teams comprised of Engineering, Business Development, and Operations professionals. Supporting capture efforts, from initial customer engagement to proposal development and submission. Collaborate directly with customers to understand needs and translate into winning strategies. Navigating ambiguity, managing risk, proactively addressing challenges to ensure successful project completion and positioning F35 Solutions for sustained success. Connect innovation with customer problem sets, developing well-defined strategies and building strong customer relationships.
We could bullet each.
For Benefits: list health, dental, vision insurance; health savings accounts; a 401(k) savings plan; disability coverage; life and accident insurance; employee assistance program; legal plan; other perks including discounts on home, auto, pet insurance; leave programs include paid time off, paid holidays, paid parental, military, bereavement, applicable federal and state sick leave; company recognition program monetary/non-monetary; other incentives based on position level/job specifics.
We need to keep all that.
Pay: Full-Time Salary Range: $132962 - $226035. Also note about determination factors.
We should not include the note about "Please note: This range is based on our market pay structures..." as it's part of Pay info; we should keep it as it's substantive? It's explanatory but still part of Pay. We'll keep as a paragraph.
We must not include the "About BAE Systems Electronic Systems" company description; that's not about the role, but could be considered "About the role"? Probably not; it's about the company. The instruction says we can have sections like About the role, Responsibilities, etc. It didn't forbid adding a company overview, but we should only include sections when posting has real specific content for it. The posting does have that content; but is it relevant? It's about the company, not the role. However, the instruction didn't forbid including it; but we have no designated section for company overview. Could we put it under "About the role"? That might be misleading. Better to omit it as not requested. The instruction: "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It gives examples but not exhaustive. It says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". The posting does have content about BAE Systems Electronic Systems; but we don't have a heading for that. Could we create a heading like "About BAE Systems"? Not in the list. Safer to omit.
Also remove lines about "This position will be posted for at least 5 calendar days..." etc.

Pay
Full-Time Salary Range: $132,962 - $226,035. Please note: This range is based on our market pay structures.
