Senior Staff Compensation Partner
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we should only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to map content to these headings appropriately. We have: - About the role: could be the description of responsibilities: "Be the partner and trusted advisor..." bullet list. - Responsibilities: maybe same as above. - Requirements: Required Qualifications. - Qualifications: maybe Desirable Qualifications? Or combine. - Skills: maybe not explicit. - Benefits: mention annual bonus, equity compensation, benefits. - Pay: salary ranges. - Schedule: hybrid schedule, 3 days a week in office. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must remove boilerplate: "Who We Are Aurora’s mission..." maybe that's about company, not role. Should we include? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we need to keep substantive info. The "Who We Are" is about Aurora mission; could be considered company overview, maybe not needed for role but it's substantive. However we only have headings for specific categories; we could put that in a
without heading? The instruction: "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use h3 for those section headings. Likely we should only use those headings when we have content. For other content like company overview, we could just put in a
without heading. We must not include cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "Our commitment to safety", "Our commitment to inclusion", "Working at Aurora" maybe considered boilerplate? They are not EEO but could be considered culture. Might be considered substantive? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. Those sections are not exactly those, but they are about company values. Might be okay to keep? However they might be considered boilerplate. Safer to omit them? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." It doesn't explicitly say remove culture sections. But they might be considered boilerplate? Not sure. I'd keep them as they are substantive about working environment. However we have no heading for them; we could just put them in
paragraphs. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's structure:

We could put those under Skills. Pay: salary ranges. Schedule: hybrid schedule. Benefits: annual bonus, equity compensation, benefits. We also have "Working at Aurora" etc. Could be omitted or put aswithout heading. Let's craft. We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we preserve all substantive info. Let's draft HTML:

Schedule:Schedule

Benefits: we already mentioned annual bonus, equity compensation, benefits in Pay section. Could create separate Benefits section: "The successful candidate will also be eligible for an annual bonus, equity compensation, and benefits." But we already included that. To avoid duplication, maybe we keep Benefits section short: "Eligible for annual bonus, equity compensation, and benefits." But we need to not repeat. Let's create Benefits section with that sentence, and remove from Pay? But Pay section also includes salary ranges; we could keep Pay just ranges, and Benefits separate. Let's do that. Thus:
