We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Overview? The instructions: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. We have Overview, Responsibilities, Qualifications (Basic and Preferred), Pay & Benefits (includes pay range and benefits). Also mention Union, Drug Free Workplace, etc. Should we include sections like "Overview"? Not listed but could be considered "About the role". The overview is a description; we can put under

About the role

with paragraph(s). Responsibilities: we have bullet list? It's a paragraph with many sentences; we can split into
  • each duty. Qualifications: Basic and Preferred; we can combine under

    Qualifications

    with
    • each qualification. Benefits and Pay: we have Pay range and benefits description; we can make

      Pay

      with paragraph about range and Kansas tax credit;

      Benefits

      with list of benefits. Also mention Union and Drug Free Workplace maybe as a short paragraph under Overview or separate? Could be included in Overview or as a note. The instruction: remove boilerplate like EEO etc. Union and Drug Free Workplace are not boilerplate? They are specific to the job; we can include them maybe under a

      Additional Information

      but not in list of allowed headings. Better to incorporate into Overview or Qualifications? Probably include as a short

      after Overview. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have specific pay range and benefits, so we can include Pay and Benefits sections. We must not include markdown fences. Just raw HTML. Let's craft:

      About the role

      Overview text...

      Then maybe a paragraph for Union and Drug Free Workplace.

      Responsibilities

      • ...
      • ...

      Qualifications

      • Basic Qualifications: ...
      • Preferred Qualifications: ...
      but we might split Basic and Preferred as separate
        each? Could do two
          under same heading. Better:

          Qualifications

          Basic Qualifications (Required)

            ...

          Preferred Qualifications (Desired)

            ...
          But instructions only mention using

          for section headings; they didn't forbid

          . It says use

          for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but to be safe we can keep only

          sections and use

          or

            inside. We can embed Basic and Preferred as separate
              with preceding

              indicating. Let's do:

              Qualifications

              Basic Qualifications (Required Skills/Experience):

                ...

              Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience):

                ...
              Similarly for Benefits and Pay. Pay section: include pay range and Kansas tax credit. Benefits section: list of benefit programs. Let's extract details. Overview paragraph: "This role is at Spirit AeroSystems, Inc. a wholly owned subsidiary of The Boeing Company, supporting Spirit’s Commercial Business Units (“Spirit Commercial”). Spirit Commercial designs and builds commercial aerostructures, including for Boeing Commercial Airplanes, one of Boeing’s three business units and the premier manufacturer of commercial jetliners for decades.

Procurement Associates have responsibility for various pieces of the purchased component life cycle including requirement identification, sourcing, order placement and receipt/delivery to the assembly line. Our teams ensure we have the right part, at the right place, at the right time." We can keep that as paragraph(s). Might split into two paragraphs for readability. Responsibilities bullet list: The responsibilities paragraph is long; we need to split into list items.

Specific programs vary by eligibility factors. Union: "This is a union-represented position." Drug Free Workplace: "Boeing is a Drug Free Workplace (DFW) where post offer applicants and employees are subject to testing for marijuana, cocaine, opioids, amphetamines, PCP, and alcohol when criteria is met as outlined in our policies." We can include Union and Drug Free Workplace as a short paragraph under Overview or as a separate section like "Additional Information". Since not in allowed headings, maybe incorporate into Overview paragraph at end. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Now produce HTML. Let's structure:

              About the role

              First paragraph...

              Second paragraph...

              Union: This is a union-represented position.
