We need to output HTML fragment with sections: h3 headings for sections present: About the role (maybe "Company Brief" or "Role"? The instructions: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have: - Company Brief (description of company) -> could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is generic; but we have "Company Brief". Could map to "About the role"? Might be better to use "About the role" heading and put company brief there? But instructions: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It suggests we can use those exact headings if appropriate. We have content for: Responsibilities (Key Responsibilities), Requirements (they list "Requirements:" then bullet list of skills), Qualifications (they have a Qualifications section), Benefits (they list Benefits), maybe Skills (they have some skills listed in Requirements/Qualifications but we could combine). Pay: they have Compensation: $170K - $230K base DOE plus 25% bonus and equity. That's specific, so we should include Pay section. Schedule: not mentioned. So we omit Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not put Job ID etc as headings. We should fold minor metadata into short p or drop. We must remove boilerplate: navigation, legal, EEO, etc. So we strip all that after benefits. We need to preserve all substantive information: company brief, role description, responsibilities, requirements, qualifications, benefits, pay. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for responsibilities list, requirements list, qualifications list? Qualifications is more like bullet points but could be list. Benefits list. We need to use

    for prose. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's extract content: Job Title: Senior RF Applications Engineer - mmWave Phased Arrays & SATCOM (we don't repeat as heading) Location: Chatham, NJ or San Diego, CA (maybe include as brief p under something? Could be part of "About the role"? Not specified. Could include as a short p after company brief? The instruction: fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. So we can include location in a p. Compensation: $170K - $230K base DOE plus 25% bonus and equity -> Pay section. Company Brief: paragraph. Role: paragraph describing role. Key Responsibilities: bullet list. Qualifications: bullet list (they have "Qualifications" heading then bullet list). Actually they have "Qualifications" then list of items. Requirements: they have "Requirements:" then a list of keywords: RF Applications Engineer, mmWave, Phased Arrays, Beamformer ICs, RF Systems, SATCOM, Antenna Arrays, RFIC, 5G / 6G, MATLAB / LabVIEW / Python. That seems like a list of skills/requirements. Could be a "Requirements" section. Benefits: list. We need to avoid duplication: The qualifications list includes similar items; but we keep both as they are distinct sections. We must not include "Skills" heading unless we have specific content; we could combine skills into Requirements or Qualifications but we have both. We need to ensure we don't create empty sections. Let's craft HTML:

    About the role

    Location: Chatham, NJ or San Diego, CA.

    [Company Brief paragraph]

    [Role paragraph]

    But maybe better: About the role could contain company brief and role description. However we have separate "Company Brief" and "Role". Could combine under About the role. Alternatively we could have separate headings: "Company Brief" and "Role". But instructions only list example headings; not strict that we must use only those. It says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies we can use those headings; but we could also use other headings? Probably safer to stick to those examples. So we should map content to those headings. Thus: - About the role: includes company brief and role description. - Responsibilities: key responsibilities. - Requirements: the list under "Requirements:". - Qualifications: the list under "Qualifications". - Benefits: benefits list. - Pay: compensation. We should not include Skills unless we have distinct content; we can omit. Now extract prose: Company Brief paragraph: "We are a leader in SatCom, 5G, 6G, Photonics, and Silicon Photonics that drives innovation in global communications and sensor technology. Our business units, Photonics and Wireless, supply cutting-edge, integrated chips and modules critical for high-performance gigabit wireless and optical networks. Catering to a broad spectrum of industries from telecommunications to aerospace, we fulfil the increasing demand for computational speed and AI application performance, replacing electric with optical connections for a more sustainable world. Our wireless solutions are forging paths in advanced SatCom/5G/6G systems, while our photonics expertise is revolutionizing custom semiconductor photonic devices for optical networks and optical sensing, making us a trusted partner to Fortune 100 companies as well as emerging unicorns" Role paragraph: "Are you passionate about cutting-edge RF technology and advanced wireless systems? Join our team as an Applications Engineer, supporting mmWave beamformer ICs and active antenna arrays for 5G, SATCOM, radar, and sensing applications. You will act as the key technical interface between our product design teams and customers, helping to integrate our innovative ICs into real-world systems." Now Responsibilities list (bullet points): - Serve as the primary technical contact for customers integrating mmWave beamformer ICs into antenna arrays. - Develop and validate reference designs, evaluation boards, and calibration scripts for beamforming and gain/phase control. - Characterize array-level performance (EIRP, EVM, beam patterns, linearity, noise figure) across temperature and frequency bands. - Support system-level design including RF signal chains, LO distribution, power management, and digital control interfaces (SPI/I2C). - Assist in debugging and root-cause analysis of performance issues during customer bring-up and production ramp. - Collaborate with internal design and test engineers to provide feedback on product specifications, firmware, and test automation. - Produce application notes, design guidelines, and training material for customers and field support teams. - Contribute to customer demos, trade shows, and design-win activities in collaboration with marketing and business development teams. Requirements list (the line after "Requirements:"): "RF Applications Engineer, mmWave, Phased Arrays, Beamformer ICs, RF Systems, SATCOM, Antenna Arrays, RFIC, 5G / 6G, MATLAB / LabVIEW / Python". This is a comma-separated list; we can turn into
    • each item. Qualifications list: - M.S. in Electrical Engineering or a related field (Ph.D. preferred), with a focus on RF/mmWave circuits or systems. - 3 - 8+ years of experience in RFIC design, antenna arrays, or system integration. - Strong understanding of beamforming architectures, RF measurements, and phased-array calibration. - Hands-on experience with network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, and antenna range testing. - Proficient in MATLAB, Python, or LabVIEW for measurement automation and data analysis. - Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to work effectively with cross-functional teams and customers. Benefits list: - Medical/Dental/Vision benefits - Vacation/PTO - Stock Option Grants - Flexible Work Arrangements - 401K w/ 3.5% match Pay section: we can put

      $170K - $230K base DOE plus 25% bonus and equity

      under

      Pay

      . We should not include schedule. Now ensure we removed boilerplate: after benefits there is "Email Your Resume In Word To Mike.Vandenbergh@CyberCoders.com ..." etc. Remove all that. Now produce HTML fragment. Let's construct:
