We need to output HTML fragment with headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Remove boilerplate, EEO, application instructions, etc.
We need to parse the posting.
First, we have introductory paragraph about SmithGroup: "SmithGroup is an integrated design firm..." This is about the firm, maybe "About the role"? Actually "About the role" could be description of the role. The posting says: "We are looking for passionate problem solvers who want to elevate design, push boundaries and create a more resilient future. The Atlanta office of SmithGroup is looking for a Senior Space Planner to join our team. Working with us, you will:" then list of responsibilities.
Thus "About the role" could be the introductory sentences about the role: "We are looking for passionate problem solvers... The Atlanta office of SmithGroup is looking for a Senior Space Planner to join our team." Might be considered about the role. We'll include that as a paragraph.
Then responsibilities: list after "Working with us, you will:" each bullet starts with a verb. We'll put them in
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Remove boilerplate, EEO, application instructions, etc.

Thus "About the role" could be the introductory sentences about the role: "We are looking for passionate problem solvers... The Atlanta office of SmithGroup is looking for a Senior Space Planner to join our team." Might be considered about the role. We'll include that as a paragraph.
Then responsibilities: list after "Working with us, you will:" each bullet starts with a verb. We'll put them in - .
Then "An ideal candidate has:" list of qualifications/requirements. This could be Requirements or Qualifications. We need to decide sections: maybe "Requirements" for minimum experience, degree, etc. "Qualifications" for preferred qualifications? But we can combine. The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have "Responsibilities", "Requirements", "Benefits", "Pay". Possibly also "Skills". But we need to see if there is specific content for Skills: they mention proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite; experience using Tableau, Power BI, and Archibus. That's skills. Could be a Skills section.
Also "Schedule": they mention flexible scheduling, hybrid work environment, 3 weeks PTO, etc. That's benefits and schedule. They also mention ability to travel regionally/nationally approx 25-30% - that's maybe a requirement or note. Could be under Responsibilities? Might be a separate "Travel" but not required.
We have Pay: anticipated salary range $123,000 to $145,000 annually and performance-based bonus.
Benefits: medical, dental, vision, wellbeing resources, paid parental leave, flex spending account, voluntary insurance, 401(k) with employer matching, tuition reimbursement, career coaching, professional development.
Schedule: flexible scheduling, hybrid work environment, 3 weeks PTO within first year, option to purchase additional time off, 8 paid federal holidays, plus 15 extra Fridays off.
Thus we can have Benefits and Schedule separate, but they overlap. Could combine into Benefits (including PTO) and Schedule (flexible/hybrid). But we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine Benefits and Schedule into one "Benefits & Schedule" but headings must be exactly from list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can't create custom heading. So we need to decide which to include.
We have content for About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe degree+experience), Qualifications (maybe thought leadership, licensure), Skills (software), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We could include all, but avoid thin sections. Let's see each:
- About the role: we have a paragraph describing the role and firm. Good.
- Responsibilities: we have many bullet points. Good.
- Requirements: we have "Minimum 10+ years related experience preferred", "A professional degree in Architecture, Urban Planning, Data Science or related fields". Also maybe "Experience with higher education planning, space management, and/or institutional research". That could be requirements.
- Qualifications: we have "Proficient understanding of space types and space planning practices in higher education at both building and campus levels", "Knowledge of data-based information and analytics; familiarity with data visualization software is preferred", "Demonstrated thought leadership through written publications and conference presentations", "Confidence in facilitating strategic conversations", "Registration or licensure in relevant field, if applicable", "Demonstrated effectiveness and a strong commitment to working in a team-based setting, collaborating, mentoring and client satisfaction". These could be qualifications.
- Skills: "Proficiency in the Microsoft Office Suite; experience using Tableau, Power BI, and Archibus". Also maybe "Ability to travel regionally and/or nationally approximately 25-30%"? That's not a skill but a requirement. We'll keep travel under Requirements or maybe as a note.
- Benefits: medical, dental, vision, wellbeing resources, paid parental leave, flex spending account, voluntary insurance, 401(k) with employer matching, tuition reimbursement, career coaching, professional development.
- Pay: salary range $123k-$145k, performance-based bonus.
- Schedule: flexible scheduling, hybrid work environment, 3 weeks PTO first year, option to purchase additional PTO, 8 paid federal holidays, plus 15 extra Fridays off.
Thus we have substantive content for each. We'll include all sections.
We must not repeat job title as heading. We'll not include "Senior Space Planner" as heading.
We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, accommodation request, equal opportunity, etc. Also remove "To be considered for this role, please create a profile and apply!" and the EEO statement.
We must preserve all substantive information.
Now produce HTML fragment: start with maybe
About the role
then ...
. Then Responsibilities
- ... etc.
We need to ensure we preserve all bullet points exactly as in posting, but we can rephrase? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the details, but we can keep the same wording. We'll copy the bullet points.
Let's extract responsibilities list:
From "Working with us, you will:" then each line:
- Lead in the research, analysis, and distillation of primary and secondary research and data (quantitative and qualitative) to generate hypotheses, insights, and points of view to facilitate the development of planning solutions and organizational recommendations.
- Manage projects by developing project scopes and fees, negotiating contracts, overseeing deliverable production and quality, and fee management.
- Manage whole or potions of large-sized planning projects.
- Work closely with data analysts to create detailed space models and perform analyses for clients.
- Participate in, and often lead, presentations involving internal colleagues, consultants, and/or clients to share findings and recommendations.
- Lead efforts around production of project presentations, plan reports and all project deliverables to ensure an integrated and cohesive outcome.
- Develop and manage positive client relationships and work as the client’s advocate by balancing client expectations within the context of contractual obligations, studio goals, and client satisfaction.
- Lead or assist in the development of new tools and data visualizations.
- Advance SmithGroup's space planning thought leadership through writing, analysis, and presentations at local, regional, and national conferences.
- Work with the Director of CS&A to meet technical and administrative targets.
- Participate in business development efforts through participation in professional organizations and supporting proposal development and interviews.
- Participate in recruiting, coaching, and career development of staff.
- Consistently exhibit and demonstrate a commitment to SmithGroup's core values - passion, sustainability, equity, community, curiosity, and integrity.
Note: there is a typo "potions" but we keep as is.
Now Requirements: from "An ideal candidate has:" list:
- A professional degree in Architecture, Urban Planning, Data Science or related fields
- Minimum 10+ years related experience preferred
- Experience with higher education planning, space management, and/or institutional research
- Proficient understanding of space types and space planning practices in higher education at both building and campus levels
- Knowledge of data-based information and analytics; familiarity with data visualization software is preferred
- Demonstrated thought leadership through written publications and conference presentations
- Confidence in facilitating strategic conversations
- Registration or licensure in relevant field, if applicable
- Demonstrated effectiveness and a strong commitment to working in a team-based setting, collaborating, mentoring and client satisfaction
- Proficiency in the Microsoft Office Suite; experience using Tableau, Power BI, and Archibus
- Ability to travel regionally and/or nationally approximately 25-30%
But note some of these could be skills. We'll split: Requirements: degree, experience, higher ed experience, maybe travel? But we need to follow instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. However we already have many sections. Could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But we have headings list; we could omit Qualifications if we put its content under Requirements or Skills. But we need to decide.
We have content for Qualifications: thought leadership, confidence facilitating conversations, registration/licensure, team commitment. Those are qualifications.
We have Skills: Microsoft Office Suite, Tableau, Power BI, Archibus.
We could keep Requirements (degree, experience, higher ed experience), Qualifications (thought leadership, confidence, licensure, team commitment), Skills (software), Benefits, Pay, Schedule, About the role, Responsibilities.
That's 8 sections, all have content.
Now Benefits: list:
- flexible scheduling
- hybrid work environment
- 3 weeks of PTO within your first year of employment with the option of purchasing additional time off
- 8 paid federal holidays
- plus 15 extra Fridays off!
- medical, dental, and vision coverage
- wellbeing resources
- paid parental leave
- a flex spending account and voluntary insurance options
- 401(k) program with employer matching
- tuition reimbursement program
- one-on-one career coaching
- professional development opportunities
We need to preserve all.
Pay: anticipated salary range $123,000 to $145,000 annually and you are eligible for a performance-based bonus each year.
Schedule: Actually we already included flexible scheduling etc under Benefits. But we need a Schedule section per instruction. However the posting mentions flexible scheduling, hybrid work environment, PTO etc under benefits. There's no separate schedule beyond that. But we could still create a Schedule section with those items? However that would duplicate content. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." If we already have Benefits covering PTO etc, we could omit Schedule section because it would be thin or duplicate. But we need to include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it. The posting does have content about flexible scheduling, hybrid work environment, PTO, holidays. That's schedule-related. But we already placed them under Benefits. Could we move them to Schedule and keep Benefits for insurance etc? Let's see.
We could split: Benefits: medical, dental, vision, wellbeing resources, paid parental leave, flex spending, voluntary insurance, 401(k) matching, tuition reimbursement, career coaching, professional development.
Schedule: flexible scheduling, hybrid work environment, 3 weeks PTO first year, option to purchase additional PTO, 8 paid federal holidays, plus 15 extra Fridays off.
That seems reasonable and both have substantive content.
Thus we will have Benefits and Schedule separate.
Now we need to ensure we don't repeat content.
Let's extract Benefits items from posting:
"We offer flexible scheduling, a hybrid work environment, 3 weeks of PTO within your first year of employment with the option of purchasing additional time off, 8 paid federal holidays, plus 15 extra Fridays off! Our benefits plan includes medical, dental, and vision coverage, wellbeing resources, paid parental leave, a flex spending account and voluntary insurance options. We invest in your future through our 401(k) program with employer matching, tuition reimbursement program, one-on-one career coaching and professional development opportunities."
Thus we can parse:
- flexible scheduling
- hybrid work environment
- 3 weeks of PTO within first year with option to purchase additional time off
- 8 paid federal holidays
- plus 15 extra Fridays off
- medical, dental, and vision coverage
-
