We need to include sections only if posting has real specific content. We have content for:
- About the role (maybe description paragraph)
- Responsibilities
- Requirements (Basic Qualifications)
- Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications) maybe combine as Qualifications? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Skills maybe not needed if not explicit. We have no explicit Skills section; we could embed skills within Qualifications.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So we will not put Mechanical Engineer heading.
We need to preserve all substantive info. So include relocation assistance mention, clearance, travel maybe as part of About the role or a separate metadata? The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can include a short paragraph with relocation assistance, clearance, travel.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, scam warning, application instructions, etc. Remove those.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual salary ranges, so Pay section is valid.
Schedule: we have 9/80 schedule description, so Schedule section is valid.
Benefits: we have benefits list, so Benefits section.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /, no markdown fences.
Structure:

We must ensure we don't duplicate content. Also need to include mention that position may be filled at higher level based on qualifications; that is in Basic Qualifications first bullet.
We need to preserve all substantive info: The description about Northrop Grumman mission etc. Also mention location: Roy, UT and may require on-site support at product manufacturing and integration sites. Also mention that position may be filled at a higher level based on qualifications below (we have that). Also mention that this position may be filled at a higher level based on qualifications below (already in Basic Qualifications). Also mention that this position may be filled at a Mechanical Engineer level or at a Principal Mechanical Engineer level (we have). Also mention that this position may be filled at a higher level based on qualifications below (maybe duplicate). We'll keep.
Also mention that this position may be filled at a higher level based on qualifications below (maybe redundant). We'll keep as part of Basic Qualifications bullet.
Also mention that this position may be filled at a higher level based on qualifications below (we already have bullet). Also mention that this position may be filled at a higher level based on qualifications below (maybe we can keep one bullet). We'll include bullet: "This position may be filled at a Mechanical Engineer level or at a Principal Mechanical Engineer level". Also maybe bullet: "This position may be filled at a higher level based on qualifications below." but that's generic; we can keep but it's not adding much. Might be considered filler? It's substantive? It's a statement about level. We'll keep both? Might be redundant but okay.
Also mention that this position may be filled at a higher level based on qualifications below (makes sense). We'll keep as separate bullet.
Now we need to ensure we don't include any boilerplate like "The application period for the job is estimated to be 20 days..." etc. Remove.
Also remove EEO statement, citizenship requirement etc? Actually citizenship requirement is part of clearance: Must be a US Citizen with active Secret clearance. That's substantive; we keep in Requirements.
Now we need to ensure we don't include any duplicated lines. Check for duplicates: The benefits list appears also later in Pay section: "In addition, Northrop Grumman provides a variety of benefits including health insurance coverage, life and disability insurance, savings plan, Company paid holidays and paid time off (PTO) for vacation and/or personal business." That's somewhat duplicate of benefits list but adds extra details. We should preserve all substantive info, so we need to include that info as well. Could add to Benefits section additional items: health insurance coverage, life and disability insurance, savings plan, Company paid holidays and paid time off (PTO) for vacation and/or personal business. But we already have Medical, Dental & Vision coverage, 401k, Educational Assistance, Life Insurance, Employee Assistance Programs & Work/Life Solutions, Paid Time Off, Health & Wellness Resources, Employee Discounts. The extra mentions health insurance coverage (already covered by Medical, Dental & Vision), life and disability insurance (we have Life Insurance but not disability), savings plan (maybe 401k covers savings), Company paid holidays (not listed), paid time off (PTO) for vacation and/or personal business (we have Paid Time Off). To avoid duplication but preserve info, we can combine: maybe add "Life and disability insurance", "Savings plan", "Company paid holidays". We'll add those as extra - items.
Now Pay section: include salary ranges and bonus info.
Schedule: include 9/80 description.
Now About the role: include description paragraphs plus relocation assistance, clearance, travel, location, etc.
Let's craft About the role paragraph(s). Could be multiple
but we can combine into one
with sentences.
Content:
