Senior Embedded Software Engineer - Connected Products

We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like application instructions, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Content: - Intro paragraph: "Senior Embedded Software Engineer – Connected Products Bloomington, Minnesota | Onsite | Direct Hire MaxIT Consulting – Max Corporate Group is seeking an experienced Senior Embedded Software Engineer – Connected Products for a U.S.-based manufacturing organization developing professional tools, equipment, and connected products for the HVAC/R market. This is a senior technical role combining embedded firmware development, desktop and mobile application engineering, new-product development, testing, production support, and engineering leadership. The selected engineer will help transform early product concepts into production-ready solutions while providing technical direction to other engineers and supporting products throughout their complete software lifecycle." That's about the role. Could be "About the role". - Key Responsibilities: list bullet points. - Required Qualifications: list bullet points. - Preferred Qualifications: list bullet points. - Technical Leadership: description. - Work Schedule: details. - Work Authorization and Location: maybe not needed as separate section; could be part of About the role? But we have no Benefits, Pay sections. No explicit Pay or Benefits. So we should not create those sections. We need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we only include those with real content. We have About the role (intro). Responsibilities (Key Responsibilities). Requirements (maybe Required Qualifications). Qualifications (maybe Preferred Qualifications? Or we could combine Required and Preferred into Qualifications? The instruction: Use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content accordingly. - Requirements: likely the Required Qualifications. - Qualifications: maybe Preferred Qualifications? Or could be "Qualifications" for both required and preferred? But we have separate sections for Requirements and Qualifications. We'll put Required Qualifications under Requirements, Preferred Qualifications under Qualifications. - Skills: maybe we can extract skills from the text: e.g., strong understanding of embedded systems, experience with UWP, Microsoft-based, Visual C++, C#, VB.NET, ASP.NET, Android/iOS, test plans, lean principles, etc. Could create a Skills section summarizing those. However we must not invent or summarize away detail; we must preserve ALL substantive information. If we create a Skills section, we need to include the skill details from the posting. We could extract bullet list of skills from the Required and Preferred sections. But that would duplicate content. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we can reorganize but not lose detail. It's okay to move content into appropriate sections as long as we keep it. We have many bullet points under Required Qualifications that are essentially skills and experience. Could treat them as Requirements (which is fine). Then Qualifications could be Preferred Qualifications. Skills section maybe not needed if we already have Requirements and Qualifications covering skills. But we need to decide if we should include Skills heading only if there is real specific content for it. The posting does not have a separate "Skills" section; skills are embedded in qualifications. We could still create a Skills section and list skills, but that would be summarizing or rephrasing; but we could just copy the skill-related bullet points from Required and Preferred into Skills. However that would duplicate content, which might be okay as long as we preserve all info (duplication not prohibited). But better to avoid duplication and just not include Skills if no explicit skills section. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can omit Skills if not explicitly present. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Schedule. We also have Work Schedule details. So include Schedule. We have no Benefits or Pay. Now we need to format:

We must not include markdown fences. Now extract content precisely. About the role paragraph: combine the intro sentences. Original: "Senior Embedded Software Engineer – Connected Products Bloomington, Minnesota | Onsite | Direct Hire MaxIT Consulting – Max Corporate Group is seeking an experienced Senior Embedded Software Engineer – Connected Products for a U.S.-based manufacturing organization developing professional tools, equipment, and connected products for the HVAC/R market. This is a senior technical role combining embedded firmware development, desktop and mobile application engineering, new-product development, testing, production support, and engineering leadership. The selected engineer will help transform early product concepts into production-ready solutions while providing technical direction to other engineers and supporting products throughout their complete software lifecycle." We should not repeat the job title as a heading, but we can keep it in the paragraph. It's okay. Now Responsibilities: list bullet points from "Key Responsibilities". Let's extract each line: - Lead the software and technical development of connected tools, equipment, and related products. - Provide technical leadership on complex engineering projects from concept through production and post-launch support. - Own project-level technical goals involving multiple engineers and break ambiguous initiatives into clear milestones and deliverables. - Lead and mentor engineers while helping resolve complex technical and product-development challenges. - Translate product concepts and requirements into production-ready software solutions and technical documentation. - Develop and maintain embedded firmware and associated desktop and mobile applications. - Support application development and testing for both Android and iOS environments. - Define software and product specifications for new-product initiatives. - Develop test plans and perform validation and software testing throughout the development lifecycle. - Support new-product development activities, design reviews, stage-gate processes, and production launches. - Provide advanced troubleshooting and production-line support for released products. - Maintain and update released production documentation using established engineering change processes. - Evaluate project progress, technical results, risks, and product readiness. - Collaborate with engineering, product-development, manufacturing, quality, and other cross-functional stakeholders. - Support the selection, onboarding, coaching, performance management, and development of a small number of direct-report engineers. Now Requirements (Required Qualifications). List bullet points: - Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a closely related technical field. - Approximately 8+ years of progressively responsible experience in embedded firmware and mobile and/or desktop application development and testing. - Strong understanding of embedded systems and production-oriented software development. - Experience working through the full software product lifecycle, from initial concept and requirements through development, testing, launch, maintenance, and post-launch support. - Experience participating in or leading new-product development initiatives. - Strong experience with UWP and Microsoft-based software development technologies. - Professional development experience with Visual C++ and C#. - Experience with VB.NET and ASP.NET. - Ability to develop, test, or support applications for Android and iOS platforms. - Experience designing test plans and performing software and system validation. - Understanding of lean principles and structured product-development processes. - Ability to translate technical concepts into clear presentations and recommendations for technical and non-technical stakeholders. - Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and problem-solving abilities. - Excellent written and verbal English communication skills. - Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple technical priorities in a fast-paced environment. - Ability to work independently with limited supervision while taking ownership of complex technical initiatives. - Strong interpersonal, mentoring, and technical leadership skills. Now Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications). List bullet points: - Experience developing connected products using Bluetooth or Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). - Experience with Ethernet and TCP/IP communications. - Experience with JIRA or comparable engineering workflow and issue-tracking platforms. - Infor ERP experience. - SolidWorks experience. - Experience with DBWorks, Enterprise PDM, or comparable product-data-management environments. - EPA 608 Certification. - Experience developing software for industrial, IoT, instrumentation, electronic, HVAC/R, or other connected physical products. Now Technical Leadership paragraph: "This position is intended for a senior engineer who remains technically hands-on while also providing leadership to other members of the engineering organization. Responsibilities may include mentoring engineers, leading technical decisions, supporting interviews and candidate selection, onboarding team members, reviewing performance, and supervising up to two direct reports." We could incorporate this into Responsibilities or About the role. Since we already have Responsibilities covering many leadership aspects, we could add this as an extra bullet under Responsibilities. But the instruction: preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to include it somewhere. Could add a bullet under Responsibilities: "Mentor engineers, lead technical decisions, support interviews and candidate selection, onboard team members, review performance, and supervise up to two direct reports." Or we could create a separate section like "Technical Leadership" but not in allowed headings. Since only allowed headings are those list, we could add it under Responsibilities as an additional bullet. Now Work Schedule paragraph: "This is an onsite position based in Bloomington, Minnesota. The standard schedule is a four-day work week, Monday through Thursday, with approximately 10 working hours per day. Working hours are generally scheduled within the 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM timeframe. Additional hours may occasionally be required during periods of increased business or product-development activity." We'll put that under Schedule. Work Authorization and Location: "Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States for any employer. Visa sponsorship is not available for this position now or in the future. Relocation assistance is not available. Candidates who are not currently located within commuting distance of Bloomington should have a realistic and defined relocation plan." We could include this under About the role or maybe as a separate paragraph. Since we have no specific heading for it, we could add to About the role after the intro. But we must preserve all info. Let's add a paragraph after the intro about location and work auth. Now How to Apply: we must remove application instructions per instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we drop the "How to Apply" section. Now produce HTML. Check for any duplicated lines: ensure we didn't repeat. Now produce final HTML fragment. Let's craft.
