We need to output only HTML fragment, using

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not put Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions). Also remove physical demands? Not sure if that is considered boilerplate? It's part of job description; but we can keep if relevant. However we need to decide sections: About the role (intro paragraph), Responsibilities (list of duties), Requirements (maybe education/experience), Qualifications (maybe skills?), Skills (maybe specific skills), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to extract content. Let's parse the posting: Intro: "This is where your work makes a difference. At Baxter, we believe every person—regardless of who they are or where they are from—deserves a chance to live a healthy life. It was our founding belief in 1931 and continues to be our guiding principle. We are redefining healthcare delivery to make a greater impact today, tomorrow, and beyond. Our Baxter colleagues are united by our Mission to Save and Sustain Lives. Together, our community is driven by a culture of courage, trust, and collaboration. Every individual is empowered to take ownership and make a meaningful impact. We strive for efficient and effective operations, and we hold each other accountable for delivering exceptional results. Here, you will find more than just a job—you will find purpose and pride. Your role at Baxter The Compliance & Records Management, QAII is responsible for site QA Compliance, Internal/External Audits, Site Audit Readiness and all aspects of hosting Audits, Regulatory Intelligence (GOC), Management of the Global Entity review and Periodic Review processes, QA site Model, and other Quality System items as assigned." We can combine into About the role section. Then "Main responsibilities include ensuring compliance with Regulations and corporate processes. Additional responsibilities related to Records Management include serving as the Site Records Management Coordinator and Subject Matter Expert. Important: This position is located in Medina, NY and is designed as an onsite role, with an encouraged presence of five (4) days per week to foster collaboration, innovation, and connection across the team. Baxter is seeking candidates who reside within a reasonable commuting distance and are able to regularly support the business through in-person engagement and partnership at the Medina site." Then "What You'll Be Doing" list of responsibilities. Then "Records Management:" list. Then "What You'll Bring" list of qualifications. Then "PHYSICAL DEMANDS" and "WORK ENVIRONMENT" maybe we can include under Requirements? But they are not typical sections; we could include them under Requirements or maybe as separate sections? The instruction says use headings only for those listed; we can create other headings? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Probably we should stick to those headings and incorporate other info into appropriate sections. Thus: - About the role: intro paragraph + location and onsite expectation. - Responsibilities: combine "What You'll Be Doing" and "Records Management:" items into a list. - Requirements: education (Bachelor's degree required, MS a plus), experience (3+ years), etc. - Qualifications: maybe overlapping with Requirements; but we can treat Requirements as education/experience, Qualifications as specific knowledge/skills (e.g., interpreting regulations, audit experience, knowledge of QMS, risk management, root cause analysis, etc.) - Skills: maybe technical skills: Microsoft Office, communication, problem solving, project management, etc. - Benefits: from US Benefits paragraph. - Pay: salary range. - Schedule: onsite presence 5 (4?) days per week; mention encouraged presence of five (4) days per week (typo). We'll include schedule info. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, Equal Employment Opportunity, Reasonable Accommodations, Recruitment Fraud Notice, etc. Also remove "Applicants must be authorized to work for any employer in the U.S. We are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment visa at this time." That's maybe not boilerplate but could be considered requirement? It's about work authorization; could be included under Requirements? But it's a legal requirement; maybe we keep it under Requirements as "Must be authorized to work in the U.S.; no visa sponsorship." However the instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. This is not exactly those, but it's about work authorization; could be kept. However we might decide to keep it under Requirements. Also remove duplicated lines. Now craft HTML. We'll produce:

Responsibilities

  • ... each duty ...

Must be authorized to work for any employer in the U.S. Unable to sponsor visa. We could split Requirements and Qualifications and Skills. Maybe Requirements: education and experience baseline. Qualifications: specific knowledge like interpreting regulations, audit experience, QMS knowledge, risk management, root cause analysis, etc. Skills: technical skills like Microsoft Office, communication, problem solving, project management, etc. But there is overlap; we can just put all in Requirements and leave Qualifications and Skills empty? But we must only include sections when there is real specific content. So we need to decide. Better: Use Requirements for education and experience. Use Qualifications for knowledge of regulations, audit experience, QMS, risk management, etc. Use Skills for technical and soft skills: Microsoft Office, communication, problem solving, project management, attention to detail, etc. Let's extract. Requirements (education/experience): - Bachelor’s degree required. MS in science/engineering a plus. - Minimum of 3+ years of experience in Quality with emphasis on oversight of regulation and compliance, or related field with a medical device/pharmaceutical company or similar regulated industry, preferred. - Must be authorized to work for any employer in the U.S.; Baxter is unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment visa at this time.
