We need to output HTML fragment with sections: h3 headings for sections present. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must include only sections with real content.
We need to extract content: The job description includes paragraphs, bullet lists? There's no explicit bullet list but there are many sentences. We need to format duties/requirements/benefits as
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The posting includes many bullet-like items but not marked with bullet characters. We need to decide what constitutes a list. The instruction: "Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". So we need to identify lists. The posting includes sections like "What You’ll Learn And Achieve" with bullet-like sentences starting with verbs. Also "What you’ll experience working at UL Standards & Engagement:" with bullet-like sentences. Also "What Makes You a Great Fit" with bullet-like sentences. Also "Professional Education And Experience Requirements For The Role Include" with list.
Thus we should turn those into
- . For prose paragraphs, use
. We need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we should only include sections when posting has real specific content. The posting includes: About the role? There's a job description paragraph at start. Could map to "About the role". Responsibilities: the "What You’ll Learn And Achieve" and maybe other duties. Requirements/Qualifications: the "Professional Education And Experience Requirements". Skills: maybe "What Makes You a Great Fit". Benefits: there is a "Total Rewards" section describing benefits. Pay: there is Salary Range and Pay Type. Schedule: not mentioned (hybrid opportunity location but not schedule). So we should not include Schedule. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Thus produce something like:
About the role
...
Responsibilities
- Define and drive Engineering strategy aligned with organizational objectives, ensure priorities, resources, and project outcomes support broader standards development and advocacy goals. ...
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science or related field. ...
Qualifications
Maybe combine with Requirements? But we can separate: Requirements = education/experience; Qualifications = skills/competencies. However the instruction says use headings only when posting has real specific content. We have both. We need to decide what goes where. Let's map: - About the role: introductory paragraph(s) describing role and hybrid location. - Responsibilities: the "What You’ll Learn And Achieve" list (defining strategy, technical lead, etc.) plus maybe the duties like "Oversee end-to-end projects", etc. Also the "As a people leader..." paragraph could be responsibilities. - Requirements: education and experience requirements (Bachelor's, advanced degree preferred, 9 years experience, 2 years people management, familiarity with product safety, etc.) - Qualifications: maybe the "What Makes You a Great Fit" list (competencies and personal attributes). - Skills: maybe not separate; could merge into Qualifications. But we could have Skills heading for technical skills list: "Demonstrated expertise and broad technical knowledge in engineering principles related to product safety. Experience in ULSE core segment topics..." That's part of What Makes You a Great Fit. Could treat as Skills. - Benefits: Total Rewards section. - Pay: Salary Range and Pay Type. We must not create empty sections. Let's extract content precisely. First, introductory paragraph: "We have an exciting opportunity for a Senior Manager, Engineering at UL Standards & Engagement. This is a hybrid opportunity based in Evanston, IL; or Raleigh-Durham, NC; or Ottawa, CAN The Senior Manager, Engineering will support a diverse portfolio of standards and lead a broad scope of interdisciplinary engineering projects and technical initiatives to advance the mission of UL Standards & Engagement (ULSE) to make the world safer, more secure, and sustainable. The Senior Manager, Engineering will serve as a senior technical contributor and subject matter expert across projects providing technical oversight and applying deep engineering knowledge to address emerging and complex safety science challenges. Leveraging expertise in engineering and applied science, the Senior Manager, Engineering will translate scientific insights, research development discoveries and incident trends into actionable strategies that support the advancement of ULSE standards and engagement activities. As a people leader, the Senior Manager, Engineering will lead, coach and develop a high performing team of technical professionals, including engineers, scientists and safety specialists that will drive technical excellence and continuous improvement to support the development and maintenance of our safety standards." Then a paragraph about UL Standards & Engagement: "UL Standards & Engagement At UL Standards & Engagement (ULSE), we expand the boundaries of safety science to create a more secure and sustainable world. For more than a century, we have created new safety standards and shared our findings with academia, scientists, manufacturers, and policymakers across industries. We identify critical safety and sustainability issues, asking tough questions because we believe a safer world begins with knowledge. Build a safer, more secure, and sustainable future with us. Join us and work with our Standards teams who develop the standards required to put that knowledge into practice." We could combine these into About the role. Now "What You’ll Learn And Achieve As the Senior Manager, Engineering you will play a key role in the rapid growth of UL as you:" then list items each starting with a verb. Let's extract each bullet: - Define and drive Engineering strategy aligned with organizational objectives, ensure priorities, resources, and project outcomes support broader standards development and advocacy goals. - Serve as technical lead and subject matter expert for complex projects and strategic initiatives related to product and consumer safety across technical disciplines. - Leverage expertise in engineering and regulatory compliance to enable the development, implementation and continuous improvement of safety standards. - Define and apply engineering methodologies, technical approaches, analytical frameworks and tools used to evaluate safety risks and support evidence based decision making. - Oversee end-to-end projects, plan and execute activities across the project lifecycle and ensure timely and high-quality deliverables. - Forecast project needs and anticipate issues. - Develop and apply solutions and implement proactive strategies to address complex, undefined and ambiguous challenges. - Collaborate and partner closely with cross-functional teams to align technical work with organizational priorities and stakeholder needs. - Provide technical oversight within the Engineering function to ensure quality, consistency and rigor of all Engineering initiatives. - Integrate Engineering solutions into existing processes and workflows, ensure recommendations are sound and actionable to support successful deployment and adaptation. - Lead, guide, coach and train junior and seasoned team members. - Cultivate collaborative environment to ensure team’s success in effective execution of standards activities. - Represent ULSE at industry-related functions such as conferences, seminars and trade shows. - Develop and present technical content for diverse audiences including committees, working groups, conferences and other stakeholder forums. - Facilitate technical discussions among stakeholders, to support consensus building and sound decision making. - Maintain continued awareness of industry trends and external context related to the portfolio. - Stay current with regulatory requirements and compliance frameworks governing public safety. - Perform other duties as directed That's many items. Now "What you’ll experience working at UL Standards & Engagement:" then paragraph: "We have pursued our mission of working for a safer, more secure, and sustainable world for nearly 130 years, embedding conscientious stewardship into everything we do. People: Our people make us special. You’ll work with a diverse team of experts respected for their independence and transparency and build a network, because our approach is collaborative. We collaborate across disciplines, organizations, and geographies to build the global scientific response that today’s global challenges require. Interesting work: Every day is different for us here.

You’ll have the opportunity to push the boundaries of human understanding as part of a team working to advance the public good. Grow and achieve: We learn, work, and grow together through targeted development, reward, and recognition programs. Values. Four core values guide our work: collaboration, respect, integrity, and beneficence. By living our values, we inspire the trust essential to fulfilling our mission and foster partnerships that enable us to pursue a beneficent future in which we all can thrive." That's prose; could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section like "About the company". But we only have allowed headings; we could put this under About the role as well, or maybe under Responsibilities? It's more about company culture. Could be part of About the role. Now "Total Rewards:" then bullet-like sentences: "All employees at UL Standards & Engagement are eligible for bonus compensation. We offer comprehensive medical, dental, vision, and life insurance plans and a generous 401k matching structure of up to 5% of eligible pay. Moreover, we invest an additional 4% into your retirement saving fund after your first year of continuous employment. Depending on your role, you may be able to discuss flexible working arrangements with your manager. We also provide employees with paid time off, including vacation, holiday, sick, and volunteer days." We can turn each sentence into - under Benefits. Now "What Makes You a Great Fit While no one candidate will embody every quality, the successful candidate will bring many of the following professional competencies and personal attributes:" then list: - Demonstrated expertise and broad technical knowledge in engineering principles related to product safety. - Experience in ULSE core segment topics including fire safety, mechanical safety, electrical systems, electrification, sustainability, batteries, energy storage and alternative energy technologies. - Broad knowledge of hazard analysis, risk assessment, testing methodologies, and performance based safety requirements. - Experience defining direction, executing strategy and achieving tangible results. - Ability to align project objectives and outputs to broader team and organizational priorities. - Strong project leadership skills, with ability to independently manage complex, multi-phase initiatives involving multiple stakeholders and competing priorities, fostering collaboration and partnership across the organization. - Demonstrated ability to lead and develop high performing teams. - Experience setting expectations while establishing and operationalizing clear goals and enforcing accountability for both processes and results. - Excellent communicator and presenter, with ability to distill complex data into clear, compelling narratives and recommendations for a range of audiences. - Strong consultative and partnership orientation, with ability to establish effective relationships and influence others, including senior leaders and external stakeholders. - Sound judgement and analytical rigor, with strong commitment to technical quality. - Strategic thinker with the ability to innovate and adapt in a dynamic industry landscape. We could treat these as Skills or Qualifications. Since we have Requirements (education/experience) and Qualifications (skills/competencies). Let's put these under Skills. Now "Professional Education And Experience Requirements For The Role Include" then list: - Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science or related field. - Advanced degree preferred. - Minimum 9 years of directly related technical work experience. - Minimum 2 years people management experience. - Familiarity with product safety, standards development, testing, certification, regulatory compliance, or related technical role. - Experience developing or applying relevant standards, including UL, ISO, and IEC. - Experience with US and Canadian Standards and Codes, as well as national, regional, and international standardization bodies. - PMP or related project management certification a plus. We'll put under Requirements. Now Salary Range and Pay Type: "Salary Range $131,186.31-$180,381.17 Pay Type Salary" We'll put under Pay. Now we need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. We'll not. Now produce HTML. We need to decide which sections to include: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay. Possibly also Qualifications but we used Skills. Could also include Qualifications as separate but we can merge. We must not create empty sections. Let's craft. About the role: combine introductory paragraphs and maybe the UL
- . For prose paragraphs, use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". So we need to identify lists. The posting includes sections like "What You’ll Learn And Achieve" with bullet-like sentences starting with verbs. Also "What you’ll experience working at UL Standards & Engagement:" with bullet-like sentences. Also "What Makes You a Great Fit" with bullet-like sentences. Also "Professional Education And Experience Requirements For The Role Include" with list.
Thus we should turn those into
