We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions.
We need to preserve all substantive information.
Let's parse the posting.
First part: "JOB DESCRIPTION Senior Specialist, Infrastructure Engineer At BNY, our culture allows us to run our company better and enables employees’ growth and success. As a leading global financial services company at the heart of the global financial system, we influence nearly 20% of the world’s investible assets. Every day, our teams harness cutting-edge AI and breakthrough technologies to collaborate with clients, driving transformative solutions that redefine industries and uplift communities worldwide. Recognized as a top destination for innovators, BNY is where bold ideas meet advanced technology and exceptional talent. Together, we power the future of finance – and this is what is all about. Join us and be part of something extraordinary."
That's generic intro about company. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About BNY". But we have headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide which sections have content.
The posting includes: "In this role, you’ll make an impact in the following ways:" then a list of duties. That's responsibilities.
Then "To be successful in this role, we’re seeking the following:" then list of requirements/qualifications/skills.
Then later: "Our Benefits And Rewards: BNY offers highly competitive compensation, benefits, and wellbeing programs..." includes benefits description and pay range.
Also later duplicate sections about awards etc. But we need to extract substantive content.
We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". There's pay range: $72,000 to $110,000 per year. That's specific, so we can include Pay section.
Benefits: description of benefits: flexible global resources, health, personal resilience, financial goals, generous paid leaves including paid volunteer time, etc. Also mention 401(k), medical, dental, vision, basic life insurance, other benefits. That's substantive.
Schedule: mention "Work after normal business hours and on weekends to perform software upgrades and coverage." "Be available to provide 24X7 coverage and support and respond to calls for assistance in a timely manner." Also "Willing to work weekends." So schedule info: may require after-hours, weekends, 24x7 coverage. So we can include Schedule section.
Now we need to avoid duplication. Also need to not include EEO boilerplate. Remove lines like "BNY is an Equal Employment Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer - Underrepresented racial and ethnic groups/Females/Individuals with Disabilities/Protected Veterans." That's boilerplate; remove.
Also remove duplicated paragraphs like "At BNY, our culture allows us..." repeated later. Keep only one instance? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove duplicated lines. So we should keep the content but not duplicate same sentences. We'll need to deduplicate.
Let's extract substantive unique content.
Intro about BNY: appears twice (first paragraph and later "ABOUT US" and "ABOUT THE TEAM"). We can keep one concise version? But we must preserve all substantive information; if it's duplicated, we should keep only one copy. So we can include a paragraph about BNY's mission etc. That could go under "About the role" maybe? But heading "About the role" is for role description, not company. However we could use "About the role" to include the introductory paragraph about the role and company context. The instruction: use
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content.

The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have About the role section containing the introductory description about the role and company.
Responsibilities: list of duties.
Requirements: maybe combine "To be successful in this role, we’re seeking the following:" which includes many items; could be Requirements.
Qualifications: maybe education/experience: Bachelor's degree etc.
Skills: maybe technical skills list.
But we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But we have headings available; we can use multiple if they have substantive content.
Let's parse the "To be successful..." list:
- Strong z/OS Mainframe Systems Programming background, including SMPE.
- Senior level knowledge of DB2 and DB2 Data Sharing.
- Experience working with vendors to resolve software and Systems issues.
- Installation and Maintenance of DB2 Program Product Installations (with creating Implementation and Backout Plans)
- Ability to provide coverage for DB2 and Product installations and the many mainframe initiatives.
- Willing to work weekends.
- Strong Knowledge of REXX Programming
- DB2 Connect on LUW skills are huge pluses.
- Experience with Performance/Monitoring products and performance tuning is a plus
- Knowledge on products like BMC-Catalog Manager, BMC-Apptune, IBM-Optim, Rocket-Shadow, Broadcom-SYSVIEW, Informatica-Powerexchange, IBM Q/SQL-Rep
- Able to communicate effectively with application programmers and DBA’s.
- Troubleshoot DB2 subsystem problems and resolve them in a timely manner.
- Ability to lead projects and complete them on schedule.
- Experience with Service Now and JIRA.
- Bachelor's degree in computer science or at least 5 years of equivalent work experience required.
- 4-5 years of related experience required; experience in the securities or financial services industry is a plus.
That's a mix of requirements, qualifications, skills.
We could split: Requirements (experience, education) and Skills (technical). But we need to avoid thin sections. Let's see if we can make three sections: Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. About the role maybe.
We need to ensure each heading has real specific content.
Let's craft:
