Engineering$73k–$174k/yrFull-time
We need to output only HTML fragment, no html/body tags, no markdown fences. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include sections only if posting has real specific content. We need to extract relevant info. Job description includes location (Mt Laurel, NJ or Denver, CO) – location is not a heading; we can put in a short

. No Job ID. We have "About The Job You’re Considering" – that's about the role. Could be "About the role". We'll put heading

About the role

and then paragraph(s) summarizing description. Responsibilities: The bullet list of duties: "Design and engineer end-to-end backbone wavelength services..." etc. Those are responsibilities. We'll put

Responsibilities

then
  • each duty. Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: The posting includes "Your Skills And Experience" with bullet list of required experience (10+ years etc.) and "Nice to have". We need to decide which sections to use. Could combine Requirements and Skills? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include sections only if posting has real specific content. We have content for Requirements (mandatory experience), Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements?), Skills (your skills and experience). Might be overlapping. We could put Requirements for mandatory, Skills for nice-to-have? Or combine. Better to separate: Requirements (mandatory), Skills (nice-to-have). Qualifications maybe not needed if not distinct. But we can include Qualifications if we have content like education etc. Not present. So skip Qualifications. Benefits: The posting includes benefits description: "Capgemini offers a comprehensive, non-negotiable benefits package..." with list of benefits. So we include Benefits heading. Pay: The posting includes base compensation range: "$73,150-$174,000." plus additional compensation note. So we include Pay heading. Schedule: Not mentioned (no info about schedule). So omit Schedule. Location: Not a heading; we can put in a

    maybe after About the role. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, disclaimer, etc. Also remove "Important Notice", "Disclaimers", etc. Also remove "Click the following link..." etc. Also remove "Capgemini is a global business..." etc. Also remove "Physical, mental..." etc. We must preserve all substantive information: location, about role, responsibilities, required skills/experience, nice-to-have, benefits, pay. We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the bullet points exactly as given (or close). Must not omit any duty or requirement. Let's extract responsibilities list: - Design and engineer end-to-end backbone wavelength services, including feasibility studies, route selection, optical path design, reach validation, and spectrum planning. - Perform wavelength assignment, optical spectrum optimization, and selection of transponders, muxponders, and line-side hardware based on service requirements. - Provision and turn up wavelength services across multi-vendor optical transport networks, including Nokia and Ciena platforms. - Configure, integrate, and maintain optical network services while ensuring consistency across vendor boundaries and transport technologies. - Validate optical performance through power verification, performance testing, error-free burn-in, and service acceptance testing prior to customer handoff. - Troubleshoot complex network, optical, and service-layer issues, including OSNR, dispersion, span loss, framing errors, timing issues, and alarm conditions. - Collaborate with field operations, network operations centers (NOC), engineering teams, and vendor support organizations to resolve network issues and escalations. - Maintain accurate engineering documentation, circuit records, implementation details, service inventories, and as-built network documentation. - Ensure compliance with operational procedures, engineering standards, and customer acceptance criteria throughout the service delivery lifecycle. - Drive continuous improvement initiatives by identifying automation opportunities, enhancing provisioning workflows, and contributing to operational procedures and MOPs. Now required skills/experience (Your Skills And Experience): - 10+ years of hands-on experience engineering, provisioning, or supporting DWDM and optical transport networks in a carrier or large-scale service provider environment. - Strong understanding of optical transport technologies, including DWDM, ROADM architectures, wavelength planning, optical amplification, regeneration, OSNR, dispersion, and optical power budgets. - Hands-on experience provisioning and troubleshooting services on optical transport equipment from at least one major vendor, with the ability to work across multiple vendor platforms. - Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot end-to-end circuits across multiple network segments while isolating faults within complex multi-vendor environments. - Strong documentation skills and the ability to work directly with customers, operations teams, field personnel, and vendor support organizations throughout the service delivery process. - Direct experience with Nokia 1830 PSS, PSD, PSI-M, and related optical transport platforms. - Direct experience with Ciena 6500, Waveserver, and RLS optical platforms. - Experience supporting long haul or backbone optical transport networks. Nice to have: - Familiarity with optical network management and orchestration systems. - Experience performing optical service turn-up, customer acceptance testing, and production implementations. Now benefits: The paragraph: "Capgemini offers a comprehensive, non-negotiable benefits package to all regular, full-time employees. In the U.S. and Canada, available benefits are determined by local policy and eligibility and may include: Paid time off based on employee grade (A-F), defined by policy: Vacation: 12-25 days, depending on grade, Company paid holidays, Personal Days, Sick Leave Medical, dental, and vision coverage (or provincial healthcare coordination in Canada) Retirement savings plans (e.g., 401(k) in the U.S., RRSP in Canada) Life and disability insurance Employee assistance programs Other benefits as provided by local policy and eligibility" We need to keep as list? It's prose with colon list. Could convert to

    • items for each benefit. But we must preserve all substantive information; we can keep as

      with the list. The instruction: Use

      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So benefits list should be
        • . So we need to parse benefits into items. Benefits items: - Paid time off based on employee grade (A-F), defined by policy: Vacation: 12-25 days, depending on grade - Company paid holidays - Personal Days - Sick Leave - Medical, dental, and vision coverage (or provincial healthcare coordination in Canada) - Retirement savings plans (e.g., 401(k) in the U.S., RRSP in Canada) - Life and disability insurance - Employee assistance programs - Other benefits as provided by local policy and eligibility We should keep the description exactly as given. Might combine first item as "Paid time off based on employee grade (A-F), defined by policy: Vacation: 12-25 days, depending on grade, Company paid holidays, Personal Days, Sick Leave" but that's mixing. Better to split as separate items as they appear. Original text: "Paid time off based on employee grade (A-F), defined by policy: Vacation: 12-25 days, depending on grade, Company paid holidays, Personal Days, Sick Leave". That's a single sentence with commas separating items. Could treat as one item but we can split for clarity. However instruction: Use
          • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. It doesn't forbid splitting. But we must preserve ALL substantive information; splitting does not lose info. It's okay. Now Pay: The base compensation range: "$73,150-$174,000." plus additional compensation note: "In addition to base salary, this role may be eligible for additional compensation such as variable incentives, bonuses, or commissions, depending on the position and applicable laws." Also note about compensation range info. We should keep that. We should not include the long disclaimer about compensation not earned etc. That's boilerplate? It's part of compensation description but maybe considered boilerplate? It's legal disclaimer. The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. This compensation disclaimer might be considered legal. Safer to omit it? But it's substantive about compensation. However it's a standard disclaimer; might be considered boilerplate. The instruction says remove legal boilerplate. I'd omit the long disclaimer about compensation not earned etc. Keep the range and note about additional compensation. Now location: "Location This is an onsite role located either in Mt Laurel, NJ or Denver, CO." We'll put a

            with that. Now About the role: The paragraph after "About The Job You’re Considering" includes description: "The Senior Engineer, Long Haul Wave is an experienced optical transport professional responsible for delivering backbone wavelength services from initial design through customer turn-up. This role owns the complete lifecycle of a wave, including feasibility analysis, end-to-end path design, provisioning across multiple optical platforms, validation, testing, and final customer acceptance. This is a single-owner delivery model. Instead of handing work between separate design, provisioning, and testing teams, the engineer is responsible for the entire circuit across every network segment, including metro ingress, the national backbone, and metro egress. The engineer remains accountable until the service has been successfully validated and accepted." We'll put that as

            under About the role. Now we need to ensure we don't include headings for sections with no content: Qualifications, Schedule omitted. Now produce HTML fragment:

            We need to ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like "Capgemini provides compensation range information..." etc. That's legal; we omitted. Check that we preserved all substantive info: location, about role, responsibilities, requirements, nice-to-have (as Skills), benefits, pay. Did we miss any required skill like "Direct experience with Nokia 1830 PSS, PSD, PSI-M,
