We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for each section that has real content. The posting includes many bullet-like paragraphs but not explicit headings. We need to infer sections: "Data Source Identification", "Tech Problem Formulation", "Data Visualization", "Data Strategy", "Data Quality Management", "Understanding Business Context", "Exploratory Data Analysis", plus maybe "Responsibilities" etc. The text includes many responsibilities and requirements. We need to produce sections with appropriate headings. The instruction: use
for each section that has real content. The posting includes many bullet-like paragraphs but not explicit headings. We need to infer sections: "Data Source Identification", "Tech Problem Formulation", "Data Visualization", "Data Strategy", "Data Quality Management", "Understanding Business Context", "Exploratory Data Analysis", plus maybe "Responsibilities" etc. The text includes many responsibilities and requirements. We need to produce sections with appropriate headings. The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to those standard headings if possible. The posting includes responsibilities (what you'll do) and requirements (knowledge). There's also benefits section at end. No explicit Pay or Schedule. So we should include sections: Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits. Possibly also Skills? But we can combine.
We must not repeat job title. No metadata.
We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to extract the responsibilities list: The posting after "What you'll do..." includes many bullet-like paragraphs each starting with a bold heading? Actually the text includes sections like "Data Source Identification Requires knowledge of ..." etc. Those seem like responsibility areas with required knowledge. Could treat each as a responsibility item.
We need to output - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can make a
under Responsibilities with each bullet being a responsibility area.
Similarly Requirements could be knowledge items? But the text already includes "Requires knowledge of ..." which is more like requirements. Could treat those as requirements.
But we need to avoid duplication. Perhaps better: Responsibilities: list of the main activity areas (Data Source Identification, Tech Problem Formulation, Data Visualization, Data Strategy, Data Quality Management, Understanding Business Context, Exploratory Data Analysis, plus supervisory/leadership duties later). Requirements: list of knowledge/skills needed (functional domain, database tech, data quality, analytics, visualization, etc). Benefits: the paragraph about benefits.
We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to strip boilerplate: The long section about Walmart values (Respect the Individual, Act with Integrity, Serve our Customers and Members, Strive for Excellence) appears to be corporate competencies; they are substantive? They are part of responsibilities? They could be considered responsibilities/behaviors. We should keep them as part of Responsibilities maybe.
We need to ensure we don't include navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present.
Thus produce:

Then Requirements? Actually we already included knowledge within responsibilities. Might be redundant. Perhaps better to separate: Responsibilities: the action-oriented items (driving execution, supervision, promoting policies, ensuring business needs, respect individual, act with integrity, serve customers, strive for excellence). Requirements: the knowledge/skill areas (Data Source Identification, Tech Problem Formulation, Data Visualization, Data Strategy, Data Quality Management, Understanding Business Context, Exploratory Data Analysis). Benefits: the benefits paragraph.
Let's do that.
Thus:
Responsibilities
- Drives execution of multiple business plans and projects by identifying customer and operational needs, developing and communicating business plans and priorities, removing barriers and obstacles
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can make a
- under Responsibilities with each bullet being a responsibility area.
