We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: headings with

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must preserve all substantive info, not invent. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Also do not repeat job title as heading. Do not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; fold minor metadata into short

or drop it. We need to parse the posting. Key content: - Intro paragraph about Genetics department, location, focus, role description. - Salary Range: Minimum $21.63/hour - Midpoint $27.16/hour - Maximum $32.69/hour - Work Location: Texas Medical Center - Work Schedule: 100% onsite - Why Us? (benefits description) includes employer-paid medical coverage, optional group dental, vision, life, AD&D, disability insurance. Accruals for PTO and Extended Illness Bank, plus paid holidays, wellness, childcare, and other leave options. Tuition Assistance Program after six months of service and access to extensive wellness, fitness, and employee resource groups. Defined-benefit pension through the Teachers Retirement System, voluntary retirement plans, and employer-paid life and reduced salary protection programs. - Responsibilities: list bullet points under headings: Mouse Work, Laboratory Research Activities, Documentation & Data Management, Laboratory Operations, Collaboration & General Support. - Education: Required: Bachelor's Degree Basic Science; Preferred: Master's Degree Basic Science and a Medical Degree - Work Experience: Required: One year Scientific or experimental research work experience or No experience required with preferred degree - Additional info: The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center offers excellent benefits... (some duplication). Also mention security infrastructure etc. Might be considered boilerplate? It's about security and integrity of critical infrastructure; maybe keep as part of responsibilities? It's a condition of hire. Might be considered a requirement? Could be included under Requirements or Qualifications. But we need to avoid boilerplate like EEO, legal statements. The security statement might be considered substantive? It says "This position may be responsible for maintaining the security and integrity of critical infrastructure... ability to satisfy and maintain all requirements necessary to ensure the continued security and integrity of such infrastructure is a condition of hire and continued employment." That's a specific requirement. We'll include under Requirements or Qualifications. - Additional Information: Requisition ID etc. We can drop or put in short p. We need sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities, Requirements (education, experience, security), Qualifications (maybe skills?), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content for Pay (salary range), Schedule (100% onsite), Benefits (detailed), Responsibilities (detailed), Requirements (education, experience, security), Qualifications maybe "ideal candidate demonstrates excellent communication skills, flexibility, reliability, team-oriented attitude, strong interest in scientific research, committed to long-term role, scientifically curious, eager to learn, proactive, dependable, motivated". That's qualifications/skills. Could combine into Skills section. We need to decide sections: About the role (intro paragraph), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (education, experience, security), Qualifications (ideal candidate traits), Benefits (list), Pay (salary range), Schedule (work schedule). Ensure we don't duplicate. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID etc as heading; we can put in a short p if desired but maybe drop. We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Let's craft. First, About the role: combine intro paragraphs: "Genetics is a basic science department located in the George and Cynthia Mitchell Basic Sciences Research Building at the world-renowned UT MD Anderson in the heart of the Texas Medical Center. The focus is on advancing knowledge of the molecular genetic mechanisms that regulate normal and abnormal cellular processes. The Research Assistant II in Dr. Yun's Laboratory will provide technical and organizational support for research projects and general laboratory operations. The Research Assistant II performs daily mouse-related work, including colony maintenance, breeding coordination, genotyping, independent mouse procedures, and assistance with mouse experiments conducted by other team members. Under the guidance of the Principal Investigator (PI) and postdoctoral fellows, the position also performs additional biological experiments as needed. The role supports laboratory operations through sample organization, inventory management, supply monitoring, equipment coordination, and general lab maintenance." That's the About the role. Responsibilities: we have bullet list grouped under headings in original: Mouse Work, Laboratory Research Activities, Documentation & Data Management, Laboratory Operations, Collaboration & General Support. We'll produce a

    with
  • items; maybe we can keep subheadings? But spec says use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. It didn't forbid headings inside list? Probably better to just list all responsibilities as items. Could also keep subheadings as inside
    • . But we can just list. Let's extract each bullet: Mouse Work: - Organize, handle, monitor, and maintain mouse colonies - Coordinate mouse breeding activities and colony maintenance - Perform genotyping procedures - Conduct basic non-invasive and invasive mouse procedures under approved protocols - Assist with mouse experiments conducted by laboratory personnel Laboratory Research Activities: - Perform routine laboratory procedures and biological experiments - Conduct experiments under the guidance of the Principal Investigator and postdoctoral fellows - Assist with postdoctoral fellows' research projects under their supervision - Learn to operate laboratory equipment and apparatus - Perform routine operator maintenance on laboratory equipment Documentation & Data Management: - Maintain detailed and accurate experimental records - Collect and organize information for project reports - Evaluate data in accordance with requested methods - Maintain complete and accurate sample inventories - Organize laboratory samples and research materials Laboratory Operations: - Monitor and anticipate laboratory supply needs - Maintain adequate stock levels of laboratory supplies - Manage inventory and supply monitoring activities - Prepare stock solutions as required - Coordinate equipment maintenance and repair processes - Perform laboratory maintenance and cleaning activities Collaboration & General Support: - Work closely with other laboratory staff members - Maintain productive working relationships with technicians and research personnel - Explain scientific protocols currently employed in the laboratory to staff members - Support smooth day-to-day laboratory operations and collaborative research activities - Perform other duties as assigned - Collect and organize information for project reports and other required activities We'll combine into a single
        with each bullet as
      • . Requirements: Education and Experience plus security condition. Education: - Required: Bachelor's Degree Basic Science - Preferred: Master's Degree Basic Science and a Medical Degree Work Experience: - Required: One year Scientific or experimental research work experience - OR No experience required with preferred degree (i.e., if you have Master's and Medical Degree, no experience needed). We'll phrase as: "One year of scientific or experimental research work experience, or no experience required if holding the preferred Master's degree and Medical Degree." Security condition: - This position may be responsible for maintaining the security and integrity of critical infrastructure; ability to satisfy and maintain all requirements necessary to ensure continued security and integrity is a condition of hire and continued employment. We'll put these in
          as well. Qualifications/Skills: ideal candidate traits: excellent communication skills, flexibility, reliability, team-oriented attitude, strong interest in scientific research, commitment to long-term role, scientifically curious, eager to learn, proactive, dependable, motivated to contribute to collaborative research initiatives while supporting laboratory and animal research activities. We'll list as
            . Benefits: from Why Us? and additional benefits. List: - Employer-paid medical coverage starting day one for employees working 30+ hours/week - Optional group dental, vision, life, AD&D, and disability insurance - Accruals for PTO and Extended Illness Bank, plus paid holidays - Wellness, childcare, and other leave options - Tuition Assistance Program after six months of service - Access to extensive wellness, fitness, and employee resource groups - Defined-benefit pension through the Teachers Retirement System - Voluntary retirement plans - Employer-paid life and reduced salary protection programs We'll put as
              . Pay: Salary Range (40-hour work week): Minimum $21.63/hour - Midpoint $27.16/hour - Maximum $32.69/hour. Also additional info: Minimum Salary: USD 45,000 Midpoint Salary: USD 56,500 Maximum Salary: USD 68,000. Those are annual equivalents. We'll include both hourly and annual? The posting includes both. We'll preserve all substantive info. So we can present as: "Minimum $21.63/hour (≈ $45,000/year), Midpoint $27.16/hour (≈ $56,500/year), Maximum $32.69/hour (≈ $68,000/year)". We'll keep both. Schedule: Work Schedule: 100% onsite. Also Work Location: Texas Medical Center. Could be part of About the role? But we have Schedule section for schedule; location maybe in About the role? The spec says include Schedule section only if posting actually states them. It does state Work Schedule: 100% onsite. So we create Schedule section with that. Location maybe we can include in About the role or as a separate section? There's no heading for Location; we could add a short p under About the role. We'll keep location in About the role paragraph. Now produce HTML. Structure:

              About the role

              ...

              Responsibilities

              • ...

              Requirements

              • ...

              Qualifications

              ...

              Schedule

              100% onsite

              We must not include empty sections. Check for any duplicated content: We have benefits list includes employer-paid medical coverage etc. Also there is mention "Employer-paid medical coverage starting day one for employees working 30+ hours/week, plus optional group dental, vision, life, AD&D, and disability insurance. Accruals for PTO and Extended Illness Bank, plus paid holidays, wellness, childcare, and other leave options. Tuition Assistance Program after six months of service and access to extensive wellness, fitness, and employee resource groups. Defined-benefit pension through the Teachers Retirement System, voluntary retirement plans, and employer-paid life and reduced salary protection programs." That's covered. Now ensure we didn't include boilerplate: We removed EEO statement, legal statements, additional info like Requisition ID etc. We dropped those. Check for any mention of "FLSA: exempt and not eligible for overtime pay" - that's about pay/overtime; could be considered part of Pay or Schedule? It's a detail about FLSA status. Might be considered substantive. Should we include? It's about eligibility for overtime. Could be placed under Pay or a separate note. Since we have Pay section, we could add that as a sentence. The spec says preserve ALL substantive information. So we should include FLSA status. We'll add to Pay section: "FLSA: exempt and not eligible for overtime pay." Also there is "Fund Type: Soft" maybe not needed. "Pivotal Position: Yes Referral Bonus Available?: Yes Relocation Assistance Available?: Yes" Those are metadata; could be minor. We could fold into a short p under About the role or drop. The spec says fold minor metadata into a short

              or drop it. We'll include a short p after About
