We need to output HTML fragment only, with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Preserve all substantive info. Include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. We have Base Salary: $113,100 to $149,000 annually DOE Bonus: Target annual bonus. So we have Pay info: base salary range and bonus. So we can include a Pay section. Benefits: listed: Medical, dental, vision, 401k, flexible spending account, paid sick leave and paid time off, parental leave, quarterly performance bonus, training, career growth and education reimbursement programs. So Benefits section. Schedule: The schedule for this position is Monday through Friday with weekend availability as needed to complete the essential duties of this role. So we have schedule info. Thus we can have sections: About the role (maybe from Job Summary and company description), Responsibilities (Essential Duties and Responsibilities), Requirements (maybe Required Qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe Preferred Qualifications?), Skills (Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have: - Job Summary: description of role. - Company description: Ziply Fiber is a local internet service provider... Our Company Values: ... This could be part of About the role. - Essential Duties and Responsibilities: list of duties. - Required Qualifications: list. - Preferred Qualifications: list. - Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities: list. - Benefits: list. - Pay: Base Salary and Bonus. - Schedule: Monday-Friday with weekend availability. - Work Authorization, Physical Requirements, Work Environment, etc. Those could be considered part of Requirements? But we have sections for Requirements and Qualifications; maybe we can combine some. We must not invent sections; we can include sections only if we have real specific content. We have content for About the role (job summary + company description). We have Responsibilities (Essential Duties and Responsibilities). We have Requirements (maybe Required Qualifications). We have Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications). We have Skills (Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities). We have Benefits. We have Pay. We have Schedule. We need to avoid duplication: The Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications both are qualifications; but we can separate as Requirements (maybe required) and Qualifications (preferred). Or we could combine but instructions say use headings for those categories if content exists. We'll include both. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, Work Authorization, Physical Requirements, Work Environment, etc. Those are boilerplate? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Work Authorization, Physical Requirements, Work Environment might be considered legal/boilerplate? Not exactly EEO but could be considered standard boilerplate. However they are substantive info about job requirements (like must be authorized to work in US). Might be considered part of Requirements. But the instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. It doesn't explicitly say to remove work authorization or physical requirements. However they might be considered boilerplate but not sure. Safer to keep them if they are substantive. But we have limited sections; we could include them under Requirements or Qualifications. But we already have Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications sections; we could add a subsection for Work Authorization etc. However we must not create extra headings beyond the allowed list? The instruction says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says "use

    for section headings (e.g. ...)" implying those are the expected headings. It might be okay to add other headings but better to stick to those. Thus we can incorporate work authorization, physical requirements, work environment into Requirements or Qualifications sections as prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include duplicated lines. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's extract content. About the role: combine job summary and company description and values. Job Summary: "The Senior Manager, Engineering leads teams responsible for designing and building scalable, cost-effective fiber networks, ensuring all designs meet technical and regulatory standards. This role oversees the entire engineering design process, manages internal teams and external partners, and drives innovation and operational excellence.

We need to output as
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can make a flat list of all duties, or we can keep categories as headings?
