EngineeringFull-time
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. We need to parse the job description. First, the job title is already shown, we should not repeat as heading. We need to extract: - About the role: maybe the introductory paragraph: "This Opportunity WSP is seeking a Senior Civil/Geotechnical Engineer with experience in the mining industry to join our Mine Waste team in Tucson, AZ. The following locations will also be considered: Reno or Elko, NV. You will have the opportunity to work as a part of a regional team on challenging mining, heavy civil, and geotechnical projects." That's about the role. - Responsibilities: The bullet list under "Your Impact". It includes many items: Leading the civil design..., Managing and executing..., Scoping, directing..., Independently managing..., Providing or contributing..., Working with..., Supporting..., Managing the work..., Remain current..., Work collaboratively..., Exercise..., Perform additional responsibilities... We need to put each as
  • inside
      . - Requirements: maybe "Who You Are Required Qualifications" section includes required qualifications list. We'll treat that as Requirements. - Qualifications: maybe "Preferred Qualifications" separate. - Skills: maybe combine some skills like interpersonal, communication, self-leadership, etc. Could be part of Requirements or Skills. We'll create a Skills section for things like "Effective interpersonal and communication skills", "Highly capable self-leadership", "Strong technical writing skills", "Developed critical thinking and problem-solving skills", "Ability to assertively direct others", "Ability to effectively delegate work and lead project teams", "Proven track record of upholding workplace safety", "Ability to work schedules conducive to project-specific requirements", "Occasional travel may be required". However some of these are more like requirements. But we need to follow instruction: include a section only when posting has real specific content for it. We have content for Skills. - Benefits: The posting mentions "WSP provides a flexible and agile workplace model while meeting client needs. Employees are also afforded a comprehensive suite of benefits including medical, dental, vision, disability, life, and retirement savings focused on providing health and financial stability throughout the employee’s career." That's benefits. - Pay: Not mentioned. So we should NOT include Pay section. - Schedule: Not specific; mention "Ability to work schedules conducive to project-specific requirements that may extend beyond the typical workweek." That's somewhat schedule info but not explicit schedule like "Full-time". Might be considered schedule content? The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. For Schedule, we have mention of ability to work schedules that may extend beyond typical workweek. That's somewhat schedule info but not explicit schedule like "Full-time, 40 hrs/week". Might be considered schedule content? Safer to include Schedule section only if explicit schedule like "Full-time", "Part-time", "Shift work". The posting does not give explicit schedule. So we should omit Schedule. - Benefits we have explicit mention, so include Benefits. Now we need to format. We need to use

      for section headings. We need to use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

        for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. We need to drop lines like "Are you ready to get started?" maybe not needed? It's a call to action; could be considered application instruction? Probably remove. Also drop "WSP USA (and all of its U.S. companies) is an Equal Opportunity Employer ..." etc. Also drop "Notice To Third Party Agencies" etc. Also drop "About WSP" maybe we keep some description? The "About WSP" paragraph is generic but could be considered about company; not required. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not EEO but it's about the company. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The About WSP is not explicitly prohibited, but it's not part of role description. However we might keep it as part of "About the role"? Probably not needed. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; but the About WSP is substantive about company. However typical job posting includes that; but we might keep it as a separate section? Not among allowed headings. Could incorporate into About the role as prose. But we can keep it as a

        under About the role. But we need to avoid duplication. Let's extract sections: About the role (intro): "This Opportunity WSP is seeking a Senior Civil/Geotechnical Engineer with experience in the mining industry to join our Mine Waste team in Tucson, AZ. The following locations will also be considered: Reno or Elko, NV. You will have the opportunity to work as a part of a regional team on challenging mining, heavy civil, and geotechnical projects." We could also add the "About WSP" description as part of About the role? Might be okay. Responsibilities: list from "Your Impact". Let's capture each sentence as separate bullet. List: - Leading the civil design of mine waste containment (tailings and waste rock) and heap leach facilities including initial layout and design, site selection and facility layout, geotechnical and hydrologic analyses, and preparation of design drawings and technical specifications for construction. - Managing and executing a wide variety of mine waste geotechnical engineering projects, including geotechnical field investigations, laboratory testing programs, data interpretation, and geotechnical analysis. - Scoping, directing, and reviewing complex geotechnical analyses with a focus on soil mechanics, including stability, seepage, thermal modelling; deposition modeling; and run out analyses for mine waste or water embankment dams and waste rock spoils. - Independently managing projects according to client-approved scopes of work and delivering high quality reports on time and within budget subject to senior review and oversight. - Providing or contributing to client relationship and business development activities focused on building and growing our business - Working with and leading multi-disciplinary project teams. - Supporting technical proposals and design work package in response to client needs. - Managing the work of junior engineers. - Remain current in latest geotechnical engineering techniques and practices. - Work collaboratively with other engineers and planners on projects with infrastructure authorities on Federal, State, regional, and locally funded improvement and development projects. - Exercise responsible and ethical decision-making regarding company funds, resources and conduct, and adhere to WSP’s Code of Conduct and related policies and procedures. - Perform additional responsibilities as required by business needs. We need to ensure we keep all. Now Requirements: "Who You Are Required Qualifications" list. Let's extract required qualifications: - Bachelor’s Degree in Civil/Geotechnical Engineering, or closely related discipline. - 5 to 7 years of relevant post education experience in engineering and prior geotechnical design experience. - Professional Engineer registration - Demonstrated experience working on projects related to tailings management and heap leach facility design in the mining industry, and experience in commonly used software packages - Sound knowledge in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering - Demonstrated client liaison and business development skills - Project management experience with small to mid-level projects including scoping, and tracking hours and expenses for project work commensurate with years of experience - Effective interpersonal and communication skills when interacting with others, expressing ideas effectively and professionally to an engineering and non-engineering audience. - Highly capable self-leadership with attention to detail, multi-tasking, and prioritization of responsibilities in a dynamic work environment. - Ability to work independently and provide guidance and leadership to junior team or project members, with strict adherence to QA/QC. - Strong technical writing skills - Developed critical thinking and problem-solving skills required to apply technical knowledge to reach conclusions from testing results, data collation, statistical analysis and arriving at the most effective, economical, and logical solution. - Ability to assertively direct others in the field such as subcontractors, drillers, and others to consistently complete tasks safely and efficiently. - Ability to effectively delegate work and lead project teams - Proven track record of upholding workplace safety and ability to abide by WSP’s health, safety and drug/alcohol and harassment policies. - Ability to work schedules conducive to project-specific requirements that may extend beyond the typical workweek. - Occasional travel may be required depending on project-specific requirements. Now Preferred Qualifications: - Master’s Degree in Civil/Geotechnical Engineering. - Willingness to work on projects across business sectors, performing a variety of tasks, sometimes on short notice - Enthusiasm for field work and travel (local and national) as needed for project and other needs Now Skills: Could be overlapping with required qualifications. But we could create a Skills section for things like interpersonal communication, self-leadership, technical writing, critical thinking, problem-solving, ability to direct others, delegate work, lead teams, uphold safety, etc. However many of those are already in required qualifications. To avoid duplication, maybe we treat Required Qualifications as a combined list of education, experience, registration, etc. And Skills as a separate list of soft skills and technical skills. But the instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we can split but must not lose any info. If we split, we need to ensure we don't duplicate content. Could we put all required qualifications under Requirements, and then Skills separate for things like "Effective interpersonal and communication skills", "Highly capable self-leadership", "Strong technical writing skills", "Developed critical thinking and problem-solving skills", "Ability to assertively direct others", "Ability to effectively delegate work and lead project teams", "Proven track record of upholding workplace safety". However those are also in required qualifications list. To avoid duplication, we could decide to not have a separate Skills section and instead put all under Requirements. But the instruction allows us to include Skills section if there is real specific content. We have content for skills; but we must not duplicate. We could move some items to Skills and keep others in Requirements. Let's think: Requirements could be education, experience, registration, domain experience, software, soil mechanics, client liaison, project management. Skills could be interpersonal communication, self-leadership, technical writing, critical thinking, problem-solving, directing others, delegating, leading teams, safety adherence, schedule flexibility, travel. That seems reasonable. Thus we need to parse required qualifications list and split. Let's list required qualifications items again and decide which go to Requirements vs Skills. Original required qualifications list (as per posting): 1. Bachelor’s Degree in Civil/Geotechnical Engineering, or closely related discipline. -> Education (Requirements) 2. 5 to 7 years of relevant post education experience in engineering and prior geotechnical design experience. -> Experience (Requirements) 3. Professional Engineer registration -> Registration (Requirements) 4. Demonstrated experience working on projects related to tailings management and heap leach facility design in the mining industry, and experience in commonly used software packages -> Domain experience + software (Requirements) 5. Sound knowledge in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering -> Technical knowledge (could be Skills? but it's knowledge; maybe Requirements) 6. Demonstrated client liaison and business development skills -> Skills (client liaison) 7. Project management experience with small to mid-level projects including scoping, and tracking hours and expenses for project work commensurate with years of experience -> Experience (Requirements) 8. Effective interpersonal and communication skills when interacting with others, expressing ideas effectively and professionally to an engineering and non-engineering audience. -> Skills 9. Highly capable self-leadership with attention to detail, multi-tasking, and prioritization of responsibilities in a dynamic work environment. -> Skills 10. Ability to work independently and provide guidance and leadership to junior team or project members, with strict adherence to QA/QC. -> Skills (leadership) 11. Strong technical writing skills -> Skills 12. Developed critical thinking and problem-solving skills required to apply technical knowledge to reach conclusions from testing results, data collation, statistical analysis and
