Project Engineer

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes job duties, summary/purpose, essential duties & responsibilities, minimum education, minimum experience, license requirements, shift, number of openings, compensation, postal code, job type, place of work, requisition ID, benefits. We must not repeat job title as heading. Use

for section headings: e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have duties: many bullet-like paragraphs. Could group under Responsibilities. We have summary/purpose maybe About the role. We have minimum education, experience, license requirements, driver's license: could be Qualifications or Requirements. We have shift (First (Day)): schedule. We have compensation: Pay. We have benefits: Benefits. We have number of openings, postal code, job type, place of work, requisition ID: these are metadata; we should fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. Probably include a short

with that info. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not relevant. We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; we can include them in a paragraph. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the details from duties, responsibilities, etc. We can convert paragraphs into

or

• for lists. We need to decide what constitutes a list. The duties are many sentences; we could make each duty as a
• under Responsibilities. That would preserve detail. Similarly, essential duties & responsibilities list is long; we could combine with duties. We need to avoid duplication: The posting includes "Job Duties" then later "Essential Duties & Responsibilities". They overlap; we should combine but not duplicate. We need to preserve all substantive information; but we can merge similar points to avoid duplication? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Merging could be considered summarizing? Might be okay if we keep all points but not duplicate identical sentences. We'll try to combine unique points. Let's extract duties from first paragraph: - Work closely with other staff engineers, regulating authorities, consultants, contractors, and residents for the water utility. - Oversee design and construction of water distribution capital improvement projects. - Oversee City wide lead water service piping replacements over the next decade. - Background with planning, designing, and coordinating how utility needs are incorporated with transportation projects valued. - Background regarding water distribution maintenance and water treatment processes valued. - Demonstrate strong teamwork, collaboration, problem-solving, initiative. - Good communication and interpersonal skills. - Ability to work cooperatively, effectively, and fairly with coworkers, contractors, and public. - Contribute to development and sustainability of city's infrastructure while working on diverse and impactful projects that benefit community.
