We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "Our Mission", "Who We Are", "Job Summary", "What You Will Do", "Qualifications", "Compensation Disclosure", "Our Commitment". However we must only include sections when posting has real specific content. Also we must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID etc. We must remove boilerplate like EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, navigation, cookie, legal, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also we must not include sections like Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. Here we have compensation disclosed: "$272,000.00 - $374,000.00/yr". That's pay. So we can include a Pay section. Benefits? Not specific; only mention "A description of our employee benefits may be found here." Not specific benefits listed, so we should not create Benefits section. Schedule? Not mentioned. So we omit.
We need headings: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We can choose appropriate headings based on content. The posting includes "Job Summary", "What You Will Do", "Qualifications", "Compensation Disclosure", "Our Commitment". Also "Our Mission" and "Who We Are" maybe considered About the role? But they are more company overview. Could be "About the role"About the role"? Actually "About the role" is typical heading for role description. But we have "Job Summary" and "What You Will Do". Could combine into Responsibilities. The instruction: Use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should map content to these headings. Let's decide:
- About the role: could include mission, who we are, job summary? Might be okay.
- Responsibilities: "What You Will Do" list.
- Requirements: maybe qualifications? But Qualifications is separate heading allowed. So we can have Qualifications heading for qualifications list.
- Skills: maybe not needed; we could omit if not specific.
- Pay: compensation disclosure.
- Schedule: not present, omit.
- Benefits: not specific, omit.
- Requirements: maybe we could include "Qualifications" as Requirements? But we already have Qualifications heading allowed. The instruction says we can use those headings; we don't have to use all. So we can use Qualifications for the qualifications list. For requirements maybe we could include "Requirements" for things like "5+ years sales experience", etc. But Qualifications already covers that. To avoid duplication, we could use Qualifications heading and put the list there. Or we could split: Requirements for mandatory, Qualifications for preferred? But not needed.
We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from the posting, but we can format as lists.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, duplicated lines, navigation, cookie, legal, application instructions. Also remove "Our Commitment" maybe includes EEO statement etc. Actually "Our Commitment" includes diversity statement and accommodation request. That's EEO boilerplate; we should remove it. Also "Is role eligible for Immigration Sponsorship? No..." etc. That's also boilerplate. Also "Motor-Vehicle Requirement..." maybe considered requirement? It's a specific requirement about travel and driver's license. That's substantive; we should keep it. It's not boilerplate; it's a job requirement. So we keep that under Responsibilities or Requirements.
We also need to remove duplicated lines. Let's extract substantive content:

We need to decide which sections to include.
Potential sections:
- About the role: could combine Mission and Who We Are and Job Summary? But Job Summary is more about the role. Maybe we can have "About the role" for mission and who we are, and "Job Summary" could be under Responsibilities? But we have a specific heading "Responsibilities". Let's map:
About the role: Mission and Who We Are (company overview). Could be a
with two paragraphs.
Responsibilities: What You Will Do list (maybe also Motor-Vehicle Requirement? but that's more a requirement). We'll keep responsibilities as the list of duties.
Requirements: maybe we could include Qualifications list under Requirements heading? But we have Qualifications heading allowed. Let's use Qualifications heading for the qualifications list. Requirements could be empty; better not to include empty heading. So we omit Requirements.
Skills: maybe not needed.
Pay: compensation disclosure.
Schedule: none.
Benefits: none.
We could also include a section "Qualifications" as heading.
Thus final HTML:
