Other Requirements: PA residency requirement is currently waived for this title. You must be able to perform essential job functions.
Then "How to Apply: ..." (application instructions, remove). Also includes AI usage, veterans, TRS, EEO, etc. Remove all boilerplate.
We need to keep substantive info: description of work duties, work schedule, telework info, salary note (non-negotiable starting salary maybe?), qualifications (experience, training, eligibility), special requirement (driver's license), other requirements (PA residency waived, essential functions). Also maybe mention Professional Engineer License as asset.
We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe from THE POSITION paragraph). Responsibilities (the list of duties). Requirements (maybe qualifications). Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements? But we should avoid duplication. The instruction says use headings for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have content.
We have:
- About the role: could be the introductory paragraph describing the position.
- Responsibilities: the list of duties.
- Requirements: maybe the qualifications (experience, training, eligibility) plus special requirement (driver's license) and other requirements (PA residency waived, essential functions). Could also include Professional Engineer License as asset (maybe under Skills?).
- Qualifications: maybe we could treat Requirements as the qualifications; but we need to avoid duplicate sections. Perhaps we can have Requirements (experience/training) and Qualifications (skills like Professional Engineer License). But the instruction says we can have both if there is real specific content. Let's see: The posting includes "Minimum Experience and Training Requirements:" which is qualifications. Also "Special Requirement: valid driver's license." Also "Other Requirements: PA residency waived... must be able to perform essential job functions." Also "A Professional Engineer License is viewed as an asset..." That could be a skill or qualification.
We could structure:
About the role
...
Responsibilities
- ... each duty
Requirements
- ... experience/training options
plus maybe special requirement and other requirements as - items.
Skills
A Professional Engineer License is viewed as an asset and may enhance effectiveness in completing assigned tasks.
Schedule
Full-time employment; work hours are 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, Monday - Friday, with a 30‑minute lunch.
Benefits
maybe telework info? Telework is a benefit. Could be under Benefits. The posting mentions telework opportunity up to 5 days per pay period, need high-speed internet, approved location inside PA, else report to Allentown headquarters. That's a benefit. So we can have Benefits section with telework details.
Pay: The posting says "In some cases, the starting salary may be non-negotiable." That's not a specific salary figure, but it's mention of salary. The instruction says: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state something about salary (non-negotiable starting salary). So we can include Pay section with that note.
But we must avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". This is "non-negotiable" which is specific enough? It's not a number but it's a statement. I'd include.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Check if any duplication: Requirements includes experience/training options, special requirement (driver's license), other requirements (PA residency waived, essential functions). Could also include Professional Engineer License as asset but we put under Skills.
Now we need to remove boilerplate: all application instructions, AI usage, veterans, TRS, EEO, etc. Also remove "Interested in learning more? Additional details regarding this position can be found in the position description ." Remove "Work Schedule and Additional Information:" heading but we will incorporate into Schedule and Benefits sections. Remove "Salary:" heading but we will incorporate into Pay.
Remove "How to Apply:" and everything after.
Also remove "EXAMINATION INFORMATION" etc.
Now produce HTML fragment.
We need to use for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract each piece.

Apply today to grow your leadership skills while supporting transportation improvements throughout the Commonwealth!"
We should not include "Apply today" maybe that's application instruction? It's a call to apply but it's part of description. The instruction says remove application instructions. "Apply today to grow your leadership skills while supporting transportation improvements throughout the Commonwealth!" is a call to apply; might be considered application instruction. Safer to remove that sentence? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove the "Apply today..." sentence. Keep the rest.
