We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "Position Overview" which is like About the role. Use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to include sections only when there is real specific content. Let's parse content.
The posting:
- Intro paragraph: "Join North Wind – Accelerating Hypersonic Innovation At North Wind, we are advancing hypersonic technologies through cutting-edge research, system development, and flight testing. Our team drives innovation in high-speed aerodynamics, propulsion systems, and mission-critical components, supporting every phase of hypersonic programs - from R&D to flight testing, If you are passionate about pushing technological boundaries in a dynamic environment, we invite you to join us."
That's about the role/company. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About the company". We'll use "About the role".
- Position Overview: "The Propulsion System Analysis Engineer performs steady-state and transient modeling of the performance and operability of high speed aerospace propulsion systems to support all phases of vehicle development, including design, integration, and ground and flight test. This role contributes to aerospace system design and optimization by delivering accurate numerical insights validated against physical models and test data, while collaborating closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams."
That's also about the role; could be part of About the role.
- Responsibilities: list of bullet points (each sentence). We'll make

That's also about the role; could be part of About the role.
- Responsibilities: list of bullet points (each sentence). We'll make - .
- Preferred Education / Experience: bullet? It's a paragraph with bullet-like statements. We'll treat as Requirements/Qualifications.
- Preferred Knowledge / Ability: list of items; treat as Skills.
- There's mention of salary: "The salary range provided is a general guideline. Actual pay will depend on several factors, including, but not limited to, education, experience, training, and other applicable qualifications. North Wind is committed to pay transparency in compliance with applicable state and local laws." This is vague; no actual numbers. According to rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It states that salary range is provided but not actual numbers; it's vague. It says "The salary range provided is a general guideline." No actual numbers given. This is not specific content; we should not create Pay section. Similarly Benefits: none mentioned. Schedule: none.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Education/Experience and Knowledge/Ability?), Qualifications, Skills. But we need to avoid thin sections. Could combine Education/Experience and Knowledge/Ability into Requirements and Skills? Let's decide.
We have:
- About the role: intro + Position Overview.
- Responsibilities: list.
- Requirements: Preferred Education / Experience (bullet points). Could be separate.
- Qualifications: maybe not needed separate; but we could treat Preferred Knowledge / Ability as Skills.
But we need to follow headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We can include Requirements (education/experience), Qualifications (maybe none), Skills (knowledge/ability). Since Qualifications may be empty, we should not include it if no specific content. So we omit Qualifications.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills.
Check if any Benefits? No.
Now we need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, drug testing, etc. Also remove navigation/cookie/legal. Also remove "North Wind is an equal opportunity employer..." etc. Also remove "All candidates must be eligible to work in the United States." That's maybe boilerplate but it's substantive? It's a requirement; but it's generic. Might be considered boilerplate; but it's a requirement about eligibility. The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. Eligibility to work in US is not EEO but could be considered legal. Might be considered boilerplate; but it's a requirement. However it's generic; we could keep? The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. Not explicitly eligibility. But it's a standard line; I'd consider it boilerplate and remove. Also "North Wind supports safe and drug free workplace through pre-employment background checks and drug testing." That's boilerplate; remove.
Also "The salary range provided is a general guideline..." we decided not to create Pay section; but we might keep that sentence in About the role? It's about pay; but it's vague. Since we are not creating Pay section, we could either omit it or include in About the role as prose. The rule: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we omit that sentence, we lose info about salary range being guideline. Is that substantive? It's somewhat generic but still info. However we are not creating Pay section; we could include it in About the role as a paragraph. That would preserve info without creating a Pay section. The rule says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does state that salary range provided is a general guideline; but not actual numbers. It's still stating something about pay. So we could keep that sentence in About the role.
Similarly "North Wind is committed to pay transparency in compliance with applicable state and local laws." That's also pay-related; we could keep.
Thus About the role will include intro, position overview, and pay transparency statement.
Now we need to format.
Let's extract content.
Intro: "Join North Wind – Accelerating Hypersonic Innovation At North Wind, we are advancing hypersonic technologies through cutting-edge research, system development, and flight testing. Our team drives innovation in high-speed aerodynamics, propulsion systems, and mission-critical components, supporting every phase of hypersonic programs - from R&D to flight testing, If you are passionate about pushing technological boundaries in a dynamic environment, we invite you to join us."
Note there is a missing space after "testing," then "If". We'll keep as is but maybe fix punctuation? We should preserve exactly? Probably okay to keep as given.
Position Overview: "The Propulsion System Analysis Engineer performs steady-state and transient modeling of the performance and operability of high speed aerospace propulsion systems to support all phases of vehicle development, including design, integration, and ground and flight test. This role contributes to aerospace system design and optimization by delivering accurate numerical insights validated against physical models and test data, while collaborating closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams."

Now pay transparency statements:
"The salary range provided is a general guideline. Actual pay will depend on several factors, including, but not limited to, education, experience, training, and other applicable qualifications. North Wind is committed to pay transparency in compliance with applicable state and local laws."
We'll include as paragraph in About the role after position overview.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /. Use
for each section heading. Use - for lists. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is "Propulsion System Analysis Engineer". We'll not use that as heading.
Now construct:
