We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "Who we’re looking for" and description. We need to use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse content: - "Who we’re looking for" is basically about the role. Could map to "About the role". Should we include that heading? Yes, if there is content. - Responsibilities: bullet list under "What You’ll Do". So we need

Responsibilities

with
  • items. - Requirements: maybe "Minimum Qualifications". That's qualifications. Could map to "Requirements" or "Qualifications". The instruction says we can use sections: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which to use. Probably "Minimum Qualifications" fits "Qualifications". Also "Bonus Qualifications" could be "Skills" or additional qualifications. But we should not duplicate. We can combine Minimum and Bonus under Qualifications? Or separate? The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have "Qualifications" containing both minimum and bonus (maybe separate lists). Or we could have "Requirements" for minimum and "Skills" for bonus. Let's see: The posting has "Minimum Qualifications" list and "Bonus Qualifications" list. Both are substantive. Could make two sections: "Requirements" (minimum) and "Skills" (bonus). Or "Qualifications" (minimum) and "Skills" (bonus). The instruction says we can use those headings. Let's choose:

    Requirements

    for minimum qualifications.

    Skills

    for bonus qualifications. - Benefits: there is a list under "What we offer". So

    Benefits

    with list. - Pay: there is salary info: "The annual base salary for this role is P2:$150,000 Senior: $185,000 Staff: $215,000". Also mentions equity grants, semi-annual bonuses. So we have pay info. So include

    Pay

    with paragraph. - Schedule: there is mention "This is a full-time, on-site role at our Los Angeles headquarters." Also maybe travel 10-15% of time. That's schedule info (full-time, on-site, occasional travel). So we can include

    Schedule

    with paragraph. - About the role: we have introductory paragraph: "Who we’re looking forAs Arc’s Senior Electrical Systems Engineer, you will own the design, build, integration and execution of the electrical systems on our commercial vessels.We’re looking for someone who’s fired up by our mission and ready to build. You’ll thrive here if you adapt quickly, take ownership, and care about the details.This is a full-time, on-site role at our Los Angeles headquarters. You’ll report to the Manager, Commercial Systems Engineering and work closely with a lean, high-trust team where everyone’s work matters." That's about the role. So

    About the role

    with paragraph(s). Could split into two paragraphs but fine. We must not repeat job title as heading. Already not. We must not include Job ID etc. Not present. We must remove boilerplate: EEO statement etc. At end there is "At Arc, we encourage diversity..." that's EEO boilerplate; should be removed. Also "Our Values" section maybe not required as heading? It's not in allowed headings; we should drop it because not in list. The instruction: Use headings only from list; we can omit other sections. So we drop "Our Values". Also remove "Relocation assistance — Available depending on role eligibility." That's part of benefits? It's a benefit; we can include under Benefits maybe. But it's a specific benefit; we can keep it in Benefits list. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include relocation assistance as part of Benefits. Also "Professional development — $500 annual reimbursement for professional development and a monthly AI stipend" etc. We need to format Benefits as
    • items. Let's extract Benefits list: - Healthcare benefits — 99% employer-paid medical, dental, and vision - Parental leave — 14 weeks fully paid for birthing and non-birthing parents - Generous time off — Highly competitive PTO with an opportunity to earn more time with tenure - Income protection — Life and disability insurance for all employees - Retirement savings — Traditional and Roth 401(k) access - Water fund — $500 for you to spend each year to get out on the water, however you choose - Professional development — $500 annual reimbursement for professional development and a monthly AI stipend - Safety Support- Annual reimbursement for PPE, ergonomic equipment and anything that ensures we keep our crew safe - Captain training — Training and access to take Arcboats out with friends and family - Office perks — Daily lunches, snacks, and good coffee while onsite - Relocation assistance — Available depending on role eligibility. Also equity grants and semi-annual bonuses mentioned under Pay? Actually they said: "Highly competitive equity grants are included with full time offers. As well as semi-annual bonuses tied to your impact, not just your tenure." That is compensation, could be part of Pay section. Now Pay section: include base salary ranges, equity grants, semi-annual bonuses. Schedule: full-time, on-site, occasional travel (10-15% of time). Also reporting to Manager. Now Responsibilities list: from "What You’ll Do": - Owning the design and integration of high and low voltage electrical systems for commercial marine vessels - Developing and maintaining electrical topologies, I/O maps, and wiring/harnessing definitions - Writing clear functional specifications and collaborating closely with the control software team to ensure seamless hardware-software integration - Leading hardware trade studies, component selection, and evaluating suppliers - Getting hands-on with testing, troubleshooting, and debugging HV/LV systems in benchtop, HIL, and field environments - Supporting sea trials to validate systems and ensure feature parity between bench test setups and production vessels - Interfacing with component suppliers, partner shipyards, and vessel operators, including occasional travel (10-15% of the time) Now Requirements (minimum qualifications) list: - Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Systems Engineering, or a related field - 5+ years of experience in electrical systems integration, hardware development, or system-level engineering - Strong understanding of HV/LV electrical systems, power distribution, sensors, and actuators - Familiarity with automotive or industrial communication protocols (CAN/J1939, Modbus, Profinet, EtherCAT) - Hands-on experience debugging HV/LV systems, harnesses, and hardware-to-software interfaces using tools like multimeters and oscilloscopes - Experience developing system requirements, I/O allocation maps, interface definitions, and architectural documentation - Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to translate physical hardware requirements into functional specs for software teams - Ability to take ownership of problems, drive them to closure, and adapt quickly in a dynamic environment Now Skills (bonus qualifications) list: - Background in industrial automation, automotive EV, marine, robotics, or aerospace electrical architectures - Knowledge of industrial electrical control panel layouts and design standards - Experience with Battery Management Systems, either at automotive or BESS scale - Understanding of ABS, USCG, IEEE, or IEC standards for commercial marine vessels - Familiarity with functional safety concepts (e.g., hazard analysis, DFMEA, safety goals, fault handling) - Experience with EMC/EMI design, shielding, and grounding practices in high-power environments - Proficiency with electrical schematic and drafting tools (e.g. EPLAN, Zuken, AutoCAD Electrical, or Visio) Now About the role paragraph: combine the initial sentences.
