We need to output HTML fragment with headings for sections that have real content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must include sections: About the role, Responsibilities (What You'll Do), Requirements (Examples Of Desirable Skills, Knowledge, And Experience), Qualifications (maybe Bachelor's degree etc), Skills (maybe part of requirements), Benefits, Pay, Schedule (if present). Also maybe "About Us" but that's boilerplate? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. "About Us" is likely considered boilerplate? It's generic company description; but it's substantive? It's about Cloudflare mission. Might be considered boilerplate but it's not legal/EEO. However they said "remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." About Us is not explicitly listed to remove, but it's generic marketing. Might keep? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Could include About Us as a section? Not listed as allowed heading; allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should only use those headings. So we should not include About Us heading. So we will produce sections: About the role (the paragraph after "About The Role"), Responsibilities (What You'll Do), Requirements (Examples Of Desirable Skills, Knowledge, And Experience), Qualifications (Bachelor's degree required, MBA preferred, ability to travel), Skills (maybe we can combine with Requirements? But we need separate if content). Could treat Requirements as skills and experience; Qualifications as education/travel. Benefits as described. Pay as compensation section. Schedule not present, so omit. We must not include headings with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to preserve all substantive information. Must not invent or summarize away detail. Must keep details like salary range, equity eligibility, benefits list. We need to format:

About the role

then

... the paragraph(s) from About The Role section (the paragraph after heading). The About The Role includes multiple paragraphs: first paragraph describing role, second about ideal candidate, third about demonstrated proficiency, etc. We'll combine into one

maybe multiple

s? The instruction: use

for prose. Could have multiple

elements. We'll keep each paragraph as separate

. Then Responsibilities: Use

Responsibilities

then
  • for each bullet from "What You'll Do". The bullet points are each line starting with bold heading? Actually they are like "Executive-Level Strategic Revenue Leadership: Own and execute ..." We'll treat each as list item. Then Requirements:

    Requirements

    then
    • for each bullet from "Examples Of Desirable Skills, Knowledge, And Experience". Those are numbered list but we can treat as
      • . Then Qualifications:

        Qualifications

        then

        for Bachelor's degree required, MBA preferred, ability to travel extensively. Then Skills: maybe we could separate but we already put skills in Requirements. Could still have Skills section with maybe "Expert-level proficiency in advanced sales and business intelligence platforms (e.g., Salesforce, Tableau, G-suite, MSFT suite, MEDDPICC, etc.)". That is part of Requirements list. Might duplicate. Better to keep Requirements as the list, and Qualifications as education/travel, and maybe Skills not needed. But we need to follow instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could combine Requirements and Skills into one section called Requirements (or Skills). But headings list includes both; we can choose to include only those with content. Since we have content for Requirements (the list) and Qualifications (education/travel). Skills content is already within Requirements list; we could omit separate Skills heading to avoid thin section. Benefits:

        Benefits

        then
        • for each benefit item. Pay:

          Pay

          then

          with compensation details. Schedule: not present, omit. We must not include any boilerplate like "Compensation may be adjusted depending on work location." That's part of Pay section; we keep. We must not include "Equity This role is eligible to participate in Cloudflare’s equity plan." That's part of compensation? Could include in Pay section or separate? Since we have Pay section, we can include equity there. We must not include "Please note that applicants who progress..." that's application instructions; remove. We must not include "This position may require access to information protected under U.S. export control laws..." that's maybe legal; remove. We must not include "More details about this will be available at that stage of the interview process." remove. We must not include "Sound like something you’d like to be a part of? We’d love to hear from you!" remove. We must not include "We’re not just a highly ambitious..." that's "What Makes Cloudflare Special?" maybe boilerplate? It's not legal but could be considered marketing; but not in allowed headings; we should omit. Thus final HTML fragment. Let's craft. We need to ensure we preserve all substantive information from sections we keep.
