We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Key sections: - Intro paragraph: "Interested in a career that matters? Are you passionate about science, problem-solving, and helping bring innovative solutions to the Oils and Fats industry? Join the Oils and Fats Application Research team in Franklinton, North Carolina, where your laboratory expertise will directly support customer projects and global new product development initiatives. As a Research Associate or Senior Research Associate, you'll play a critical role in a growing business area by delivering high-quality analytical insights and supporting research activities that help drive innovation and customer success. Working closely with scientists and stakeholders across regions and functions, you'll have opportunities to expand your technical capabilities while contributing to a collaborative and purpose-driven team." That's about the role. Could be "About the role" section. - "The Role & Your Impact In this hands-on laboratory role, you will support applied research and analytical testing activities across the Oils and Fats portfolio. You will be responsible for generating reliable data, communicating results to stakeholders, and contributing to projects that support both customers and innovation pipelines." That's also about role. - Then "Key responsibilities include:" followed by list items. List items: - Analyze samples and support testing activities for projects across regions and functions within the Oils and Fats industry. - Design and execute laboratory experiments and analytical assays. - Analyze and interpret data, delivering clear, concise, and actionable results to stakeholders. - Operate, maintain, and troubleshoot laboratory equipment and analytical instruments. - Take ownership of assigned projects and tasks while incorporating feedback and collaborating across teams. - Balance multiple priorities in a dynamic environment while maintaining high-quality outcomes. - Continuously develop new skills, including digitalization and AI-enabled tools, and proactively identify opportunities for improvement. These are responsibilities. - Then "What You'll Need To Be Successful" list: Bachelor's degree in Chemistry, Biology, Microbiology, Engineering, or a related scientific field. Minimum of two years of laboratory experience. Hands-on experience with analytical assays and laboratory testing techniques. Experience operating and troubleshooting laboratory equipment and analytical instruments. Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple tasks and priorities. Excellent communication, interpersonal, and collaboration skills. Ability to work independently while contributing effectively within a team environment. These are requirements/qualifications. - Then "Essential Competencies" list: Scientific curiosity and problem-solving ability. Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality. Reliability and accountability. Ability to follow standard operating procedures (SOPs). Positive attitude and collaborative mindset. Adaptability and willingness to learn new skills. These could be skills. - Then "Additional Skills & Interests We Value" list: Experience within the oils, fats, food, biotechnology, or related industries. Exposure to data analysis tools, digital laboratory systems, or AI-enabled technologies. Experience supporting product development or customer-facing technical projects. Interest in continuous improvement and laboratory process optimization. These also skills. - Then "What We Offer At Novonesis, you'll have the opportunity to contribute to meaningful scientific work while developing your skills in a supportive and collaborative environment. We offer:" followed by list: - The opportunity to work on customer projects and global innovation initiatives. - Exposure to diverse stakeholders across regions and functions. - A collaborative team culture that values learning, ownership, and continuous improvement. - Opportunities to expand your technical expertise and develop new capabilities, including digital and AI-related skills. - The chance to make a direct impact in a business area that is supporting significant strategic growth. These are benefits? Actually they are more about role/opportunities. Could be "Benefits" but they are not typical benefits like insurance. However we have a separate "Compensation & Benefits" section later. - Then "Ways of Working / Working Conditions" paragraph: Full-time position with regular working hours (40 hours per week). No shift work required. Primarily on-site role based in Franklinton, North Carolina. Flexible working approach that supports work-life balance. Combination of laboratory-based and desktop-based work. Dynamic environment requiring collaboration, adaptability, and effective prioritization of multiple activities. That's schedule/working conditions. - Then "Compensation & Benefits" section: Expected pay range: $55,000-$85,000 Benefits you will enjoy: - 401(k) with up to a 9% company contribution - Minimum of 3 weeks of vacation, 12 holidays, and 2 weeks of Wellness Time - Health, Dental, Vision, and Life insurance - Healthcare Savings Account (HSA) option - Employee Assistance Program - Parental leave - Tuition reimbursement - All benefits begin on your first day That's pay and benefits. - Then "Relevant Information Application Deadline: September 22, 2026" - this is application instruction? It's a deadline, but we are told to remove application instructions. Should we drop? The instruction says remove application instructions. The deadline is arguably application instruction. Probably drop. - Then "Our purpose guides the way ..." that's boilerplate purpose/mission. Remove. - Then "Opportunities for everyone ..." EEO boilerplate. Remove. - Then "Explore Other Openings ..." navigation. Remove. Thus we need sections: About the role (intro + role & impact), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (maybe combine qualifications and essential competencies?), Skills (additional skills & interests), Benefits (what we offer? maybe combine with compensation & benefits?), Pay (expected pay range), Schedule (ways of working). We must not create sections with filler. Must ensure each section has substantive content. We need to decide grouping. Potential sections:

About the role

Responsibilities

  • ... list ...

Requirements

  • ... bachelor's degree, 2 years experience, hands-on experience, etc.

Skills

  • ... essential competencies + additional skills & interests ...

  • ... what we offer list (opportunities) ...

Pay

Expected pay range: $55,000-$85,000

Schedule

Full-time position with regular working hours (40 hours per week). No shift work required. Primarily on-site role based in Franklinton, North Carolina. Flexible working approach that supports work-life balance. Combination of laboratory-based and desktop-based work. Dynamic environment requiring collaboration, adaptability, and effective prioritization of multiple activities.

We could also include "Working Conditions" but schedule covers. We must not include sections like Qualifications separate if we already have Requirements. Could combine qualifications into Requirements. We must not repeat job title. Check for any duplicated lines: ensure we didn't repeat. Check for any boilerplate left: we removed purpose, EEO, navigation, application deadline. Check for any "cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate": removed. Check for any "application instructions": we removed deadline line; also maybe "We make all employment decisions based on business needs..." that's EEO; removed. Now ensure we preserve all substantive information: Did we miss any? Let's list all substantive pieces from original: - Intro paragraph (career that matters, passionate about science, etc.) - Role description: Research Associate or Senior Research Associate, role in growing business area, delivering high-quality analytical insights, supporting research activities, drive innovation and customer success, working closely with scientists and stakeholders, opportunities to expand technical capabilities, collaborative purpose-driven team. - The Role & Your Impact paragraph: hands-on laboratory role, support applied research and analytical testing across Oils and Fats portfolio, generate reliable data, communicate results, contribute to projects supporting customers and innovation pipelines. - Key responsibilities list (7 items). - What You'll Need To Be Successful list (7 items). - Essential Competencies list (6 items). - Additional Skills & Interests We Value list (4 items). - What We Offer list (5 items). - Ways of Working / Working Conditions paragraph (6 bullet-like sentences). - Compensation & Benefits: Expected pay range, Benefits list (9 items). - Application Deadline (removed). - Purpose statement (removed). - EEO statement (removed). - Explore Other Openings (removed). We have captured all except maybe the "What We Offer" list we placed under Benefits. That's fine. Check if any of the "What We Offer" items are actually benefits? They are more about opportunities but we can treat as Benefits section. Now ensure we didn't miss any details like "Opportunity to work on customer projects and global innovation initiatives." etc. Included. Check that we didn't inadvertently include any boilerplate like "We offer:" phrase; we just list items. Now format. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Thus:
