We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes intro paragraphs: "Where Performance Meets Purpose Join a team..." then "What You Will Be Doing" then "What You Bring" then "Our Commitment to You". Also maybe "Ready to Make an Impact?" but that's similar to call to action; we should remove application instructions. The "Ready to Make an Impact?" is basically a call to apply; we should remove application instructions. Also remove EEO and legal statements.
We need headings: Use for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to map content.
We have no explicit Pay or Schedule info, so we should NOT include those sections.
We have Benefits info in "Our Commitment to You": health and well-being programs, paid time off, onsite fitness center, acupuncture, physical therapy, wellness coaches, 401k with company match, health savings accounts, flexible spending accounts, pet insurance, legal planning, education assistance, exclusive access to Associate Store. So we can create a Benefits section.
We have Responsibilities: "What You Will Be Doing" content.
We have Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: "What You Bring" includes education, experience, expertise, certifications, abilities. We can split into Requirements (education, experience), Qualifications (certifications maybe), Skills (technical expertise). But we need to avoid thin sections; better to combine into a single "Requirements" or "Qualifications". The instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have sections: About the role (maybe intro), Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits.
We need About the role: The intro paragraphs before "What You Will Be Doing". That includes: "Where Performance Meets Purpose Join a team that values excellence and innovation, at a company known for its iconic golf brands. At Acushnet Company, your background and experience contribute to creating the best products for dedicated golfers worldwide. Here, your performance has purpose." That's about the role/company. We'll put that in About the role.
Responsibilities: the "What You Will Be Doing" block.
Requirements: the "What You Bring" block (education, experience, expertise, certifications, abilities). Could also include "Ability to travel as needed". We'll include all.
Benefits: the "Our Commitment to You" block.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must not include boilerplate: EEO, legal, etc.
We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.

We need to decide what to turn into lists. The responsibilities block is a series of sentences; we could turn each sentence into
- under a
. Similarly for requirements block: many bullet-like statements; we can make list. Benefits block: list of benefits.
We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep each piece of info.
