SCADA Engineer - Technical Director

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the job description. Let's extract sections: - About the role: The opening paragraph: "This Opportunity WSP is currently initiating a search for a SCADA Engineer – Technical Director for our Boise ID office. Candidates for our offices in Clarkston, WA; Portland, OR; San Diego, CA; Denver, CO; Salt Lake City, UT; and Ft Lauderdale, FL will also be considered. Be involved in projects with our Electrical Studies, SCADA, and Protection (ESSP) team and be a part of a growing organization that helps our clients meet their objectives and solve complex challenges. WSP brings global expertise in power delivery, power generation, and program management, anchored by the acquisition of POWER Engineers, Inc. TRC Companies have now joined WSP, deepening our power practice and expanding our energy advisory and intelligent grid services. We're partnering with clients to shape how energy systems evolve around the world, and we need your help. The successful applicant will lead assigned projects while maintaining and strengthening client relationships. This role requires strong technical expertise, project leadership, and the ability to mentor team members. Projects will primarily support utility SCADA, communications, and control systems for transmission and distribution substations, generation facilities, and utility control centers, including conventional and renewable energy systems. This role requires experience supporting proposals, building client relationships, and identifying new business opportunities. The ideal candidate can work independently, communicate complex technical issues to diverse audiences, and effectively manage project priorities." That's about the role. - Your Impact: This section lists tasks: "Provides technical support and leadership in design, engineering, and commissioning of utility, industrial, and commercial scale SCADA projects in the public and private sector.

Required Qualifications bullet list: Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent experience). 12+ years of relevant post-education experience as an electrical engineer providing design deliverables for SCADA projects in power generation, transmission, and distribution at an electrical utility or commercial scale.

These benefits include coverage related to medical, dental, vision, disability, and life; retirement savings; paid sick leave; paid vacation (or other personal time); paid parental leave; and paid time off for purposes of bereavement, voting, and/or attendance at naturalization proceedings." - Pay: Compensation Expected Salary (all locations): $145,400yr - $278,400yr. Also Colorado specific: Expected Salary (Colorado only): $163,800yr - $278,400yr. We need to include Pay section if posting actually states them. Yes, they state salary ranges. So include Pay. - Schedule: Not explicitly mentioned. There's "Must be flexible to a variety of schedules to meet business needs". That's not a specific schedule. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. For Schedule, we have no explicit schedule like "Full-time", "Part-time", "Shift work". The phrase about flexible schedules is not a concrete schedule. So we should NOT include Schedule section. - Skills: Could be derived from responsibilities but we may combine into Responsibilities. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Required and Preferred?), Qualifications (maybe separate?), Benefits, Pay. But we need to follow headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can omit those not present. We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (yes), Responsibilities (yes), Requirements (maybe required qualifications), Qualifications (maybe preferred qualifications), Skills (maybe we could list technical skills from responsibilities, but we could also omit if thin). Benefits (yes), Pay (yes). Schedule (no). We must not create sections with filler. We need to ensure we preserve all substantive information. If we omit Skills, we might lose some skill specifics like protocols, platforms, software. Those are in Responsibilities section (Your Impact). We could embed them there. That's fine. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. Now we need to format with

for each section heading. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We need to avoid repeating job title. No Job ID. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. The text includes "Disclaimer Relocation assistance is not available for this position." That's maybe minor metadata; we can fold into a short

  or drop it. It's not a heading. We'll include maybe as a short paragraph under Benefits? Actually it's about relocation assistance not available. Could be a note. We'll include as a short

  after Benefits maybe. Also "WSP Benefits" heading is in text; we will treat as Benefits section. Now craft content. About the role: combine the opening paragraph(s) up to "Your Impact". Actually "Your Impact" is a heading but we will treat as Responsibilities. So About the role includes everything before "Your Impact". Let's extract: "This Opportunity WSP is currently initiating a search for a SCADA Engineer – Technical Director for our Boise ID office. Candidates for our offices in Clarkston, WA; Portland, OR; San Diego, CA; Denver, CO; Salt Lake City, UT; and Ft Lauderdale, FL will also be considered.

  . Responsibilities: The "Your Impact" section content. We'll break into maybe a

  list of duties. But the instruction: Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should convert the responsibilities into list items. However the responsibilities are dense with semicolons. We could split into logical items: Provide technical support and leadership in design, engineering, and commissioning...; Tasks include specification, design, concept development, and commissioning...; Provides guidance to project managers...; Provides a level of project quality...; Leadership: Coordinate, review and approve...; Data Acquisition: Prepare points lists...; Networking: Design and configure network...; Communications: Specify and design communication networks...; Working knowledge or awareness of applicable industry SCADA practices...; Applicable network and communication protocols: DNP, Modbus, and IEC 61850...
