Moffatt & Nichol · Richmond, VA · 1 mo ago
Engineering$38–$49/hrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About Moffatt & Nichol" and "Duties And Responsibilities", "Qualifications", "Working Conditions", "Base Salary Range", "Moffatt & Nichol’s Employment Benefits". Also "About the role" maybe not present; but we can treat "About Moffatt & Nichol" as about the company, not role. The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to map sections accordingly.
We need to include only sections with real content. Remove boilerplate: EEO statement, navigation, cookie, legal, scam warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Reasonable accommodations may be made..." maybe part of duties but it's boilerplate? It's about accommodations; might be considered boilerplate but it's part of duties? Probably we can keep it? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The reasonable accommodations line is not exactly EEO but could be considered legal boilerplate. Safer to remove it.
Also remove "Please note this job posting is not designed to cover..." etc.
We need to preserve all substantive information.
Let's extract content:
Intro paragraph: "Moffatt & Nichol specializes in large complex waterfront infrastructure projects and is recognized as one of the worldwide leaders in this field. We are actively looking for a Roadway Engineer to join our Richmond office in Fall 2026, or Spring/Summer 2027. As part of the Transportation Group, the Roadway Engineer will be a member of an integrated design team, and will be responsible for developing project designs, plans, quantities, cost estimates and specifications while working directly under licensed Engineers. Projects will include DOT highway design, county/city roadway improvements, bike paths, pedestrian walkways, heavy rail and other transportation related projects. Position will also be part of national workshare and may have the opportunity to work on projects outside the local/state markets."
That's about the role. Could be placed under

That's about the role. Could be placed under About the role
maybe.
Then "About Moffatt & Nichol" paragraph: details about firm, rankings, etc. That's about company; maybe we can put under About the company
but not in list. The instruction only gave examples but we can use 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 we should stick to those. Probably we should treat company info as part of About the role? Or we could omit? But we must preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to include it somewhere. Could create a section About Moffatt & Nichol
even though not in examples; but instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, ...). It doesn't say we cannot use other headings, but we should follow the pattern. Safer to include as About Moffatt & Nichol
.
Then duties and responsibilities: list items.
We need to extract duties bullet list:
From "Duties And Responsibilities" after removing reasonable accommodations line:
"Learn and apply established principles and practices of civil engineering
Establish and maintain effective working relationships with those contacted in the performance of duties and to work as a team
Design and preparation of documents for:

Sidewalks
Shoulder improvements
Drainage design projects
Duties include assisting a project manager with tasks associated with:
Plan preparation
Cost estimates
Report writing
Client coordination
Permitting"
We need to format as - . Some items have sub-items; we can flatten or nest? Probably just list each duty as separate
- . Could keep hierarchy but simpler to list each.
Thus list:

We need to keep substantive info; the background check and E-Verify maybe considered legal but it's part of qualifications? Might be considered boilerplate but it's a requirement. The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. Background check and E-Verify are not EEO; they are hiring requirements. Keep them.
