We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The job summary includes description. We need headings: for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content.
We need to parse the posting.
Job Summary: description about IFF, role based in Philadelphia, etc. That could be "About the role". Then responsibilities: bullet points under "Lead flavor and food formulation projects..." etc. Then qualifications: "What Makes You the Right Fit" includes degree, experience, etc. Then "How Would You Stand Out?" could be "Preferred Qualifications" or "Skills". Could treat as "Skills" or "Preferred Qualifications". The instruction: use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can map:
- About the role: job summary paragraph(s) describing role, location, team.
- Responsibilities: list of duties (the bullet points after "Your potential is our inspiration." Actually after "Where You'll Make a Difference" there are bullet points.
- Qualifications: "What Makes You the Right Fit" (degree, experience, etc.)
- Skills: "How Would You Stand Out?" (hands-on expertise etc.) Could also include "Why Choose Us?" maybe as Benefits? But "Why Choose Us?" is about company offerings, could be Benefits. However Benefits section should be only if posting actually states them. It lists: Opportunity to work with leading brands, exposure to cutting-edge tech, collaborative global environment, meaningful opportunities to lead projects, ongoing learning, development, career growth, impactful work. Those are benefits. So we can include Benefits section.
Pay and Schedule: not mentioned, so omit.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.

We need to use for section headings, - for any list,
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: EEO etc. At end there is EEO statement: "We are a global leader... We value the diverse mosaic..." That's boilerplate EEO; we should remove it. Also "Visit IFF.com/careers/workplace-diversity-and-inclusion to learn more" is also boilerplate; remove.
Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to ensure we keep all substantive content: location Philadelphia PA (onsite role). Team description. Responsibilities bullet list. Qualifications bullet list? The "What Makes You the Right Fit" is a paragraph with bullet-like sentences separated by periods. We can convert to
- for each distinct requirement. Similarly for "How Would You Stand Out?" list.
We need to be careful not to lose any detail.
Let's extract content.

We could also include the sentence "We are a global leader in taste, scent, and nutrition, offering our customers a broader range of natural solutions and accelerating our growth strategy." That's also a benefit-ish but maybe part of About the role? It's more about company. Could be included in Benefits or About the role. Since it's not a direct benefit to employee but company statement. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not EEO but still generic. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This line is not exactly boilerplate but could be considered generic marketing. However it's substantive about IFF. Might keep in About the role? But we already have About the role covering IFF description. Could incorporate that sentence into About the role as part of description. However we must not invent or summarize away detail. We can keep it as a separate paragraph in About the role.
But we need to avoid duplication: The About the role already includes "IFF is a global leader in flavors, fragrances, food ingredients and health & biosciences. We deliver sustainable innovations that elevate everyday products. Taste: Crafting unique, technology-enabled flavor designs that define the identity of food and beverage brands, shape trends in flavor building and fuel market success." The extra sentence "We are a global leader in taste, scent, and nutrition, offering our customers a broader range of natural solutions and accelerating our growth strategy." is similar but not identical; it's about taste, scent, nutrition. Could be considered redundant but not duplicate. Might keep as part of About the role.
But we need to decide sections.
We'll produce:
