Service Technician
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content.
We need to parse the description.

We are hiring experienced commercial kitchen technicians in the Des Moines, Iowa area. If you repair restaurant equipment, we want to talk to you.
- General Parts is an equal opportunity employer... (boilerplate to remove)
We need to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So remove the equal opportunity line.
We need to preserve all substantive info.
We need to use headings: for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them.
We have Pay info: hourly rates start at $25.00 per hour and up to $40.00 per hour based on experience. Also sign-on bonus up to $3,000. So we can have a Pay section.
We have Benefits: Strong hourly pay, Company vehicle, Steady commercial service work, Career growth for skilled technicians. Also maybe mention CFESA training certifications, Master Certification, etc. Those could be benefits or qualifications. We'll treat as Benefits.
We have Schedule: Not mentioned. So we should not include Schedule.
We have About the role: Could be description of role (What You’ll Do). Could also be "About the role" heading with prose summarizing role. But we already have Responsibilities (What You’ll Do). The instructions say use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
We have:
- About the role: Could be a brief overview: "Service Technicians ...". Might be covered by responsibilities. But we can include About the role as a short paragraph summarizing the job: "Now Hiring: Service Technicians Up to $3,000 Sign-On Bonus for Experienced Candidates! Hourly rates start at $25.00 per hour and up to $40.00 per hour based on experience". However that includes pay info which we might put in Pay section. Better to keep About the role as a short description of the job: "Service Technicians responsible for servicing and repairing commercial kitchen equipment at customer locations." That is derived from content.
- Responsibilities: list of duties: Service and repair restaurant equipment at customer locations including: Restaurants, Hospitals, Schools, Commercial kitchens. Also maybe mention working on commercial cooking equipment, refrigeration, or both.
- Requirements: Experience working on commercial kitchen equipment, Valid driver’s license, EPA certification required for refrigeration techs, Ability to work independently in the field.
- Qualifications: Could be similar to Requirements? Might be overlapping. But we can treat Qualifications as maybe "Experience working on commercial kitchen equipment" etc. However we already have Requirements. The instruction list includes both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. We need to decide which to use based on content. The posting has "Requirements" bullet list. It also mentions "Technicians with experience in: Commercial cooking equipment ... OR both (combo technicians)" under What We Need. That could be Qualifications. Also "Why Techs Join Us" includes benefits. "Who We Are" is about company.
We could map:
- About the role: short paragraph summarizing role.
- Responsibilities: bullet list of duties (service and repair at customer locations, types of locations).
- Requirements: bullet list (experience, driver's license, EPA cert, independent work).
- Qualifications: maybe bullet list of specific equipment experience (commercial cooking equipment, commercial refrigeration, combo). Or we could combine with Requirements. But we need to avoid duplication. The instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But we have headings list; we can choose to include only those that have substantive content. If we combine, we could use either Requirements or Qualifications heading. Which is more appropriate? The posting explicitly says "Requirements". So we should use Requirements heading for that list. Qualifications could be used for the "What We Need" list (experience in specific equipment). That seems distinct enough.
- Skills: Not explicitly listed; maybe we could infer but better not to create unless explicit. So skip Skills.
- Benefits: bullet list from "Why Techs Join Us": Strong hourly pay, Company vehicle, Steady commercial service work, Career growth for skilled technicians. Also maybe mention CFESA training certifications, Master Certification (from Who We Are). But those are more about company. Could include as benefits.
- Pay: bullet list or prose: Hourly rates start at $25.00 per hour and up to $40.00 per hour based on experience. Up to $3,000 sign-on bonus for experienced candidates.
- Schedule: not mentioned, so omit.
We also have company description (Who We Are) which could be under About the company but not in headings list. Could be omitted or placed under About the role? The instruction says use headings for those specific categories; we can include additional headings if needed? It says "use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." The e.g. suggests those are examples but not exclusive? It says "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect only those headings. So we should stick to those.
Thus we need to map content to those headings.
We have content for:
- About the role: we can write a brief paragraph summarizing the role: "Service Technicians perform service and repair of commercial kitchen equipment at customer locations such as restaurants, hospitals, schools, and commercial kitchens."
- Responsibilities: bullet list of duties: Service and repair restaurant equipment at customer locations including: Restaurants, Hospitals, Schools, Commercial kitchens. Also maybe mention working on commercial cooking equipment, refrigeration, or combo.
But we already covered location in About the role; responsibilities could be more specific tasks: "Service and repair restaurant equipment at customer locations." That's basically same. Might be okay.
- Requirements: bullet list: Experience working on commercial kitchen equipment, Valid driver’s license, EPA certification required for refrigeration techs, Ability to work independently in the field.
- Qualifications: bullet list: Experience with commercial cooking equipment (fryers, ovens, grills), Commercial refrigeration (walk-ins, ice machines, reach-ins), Or both (combo technicians). Could also include "Experience working on commercial kitchen equipment" but that's duplicate.
- Benefits: bullet list: Strong hourly pay, Company vehicle, Steady commercial service work, Career growth for skilled technicians, CFESA training certifications encouraged, Many hold Master Certification designation.
- Pay: bullet list or prose: Hourly rates start at $25.00 per hour and up to $40.00 per hour based on experience. Up to $3,000 sign-on bonus for experienced candidates.
We must not repeat the job title as a heading. So no Service Technicians
. Good.
We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings.
We must remove boilerplate: equal opportunity line.
We must not include application instructions like "Apply today if you have commercial kitchen equipment experience." That's an application instruction; we should remove it. Also "Apply today if you have commercial kitchen equipment experience." is near end. Remove.
Also "We are hiring experienced commercial kitchen technicians in the Des Moines, Iowa area. If you repair restaurant equipment, we want to talk to you." That's also a call to action; maybe considered application instruction? It's more location info. Might be considered substantive? It mentions location Des Moines, Iowa area. That's substantive info about location. Should we keep? The instruction says remove application instructions. That line is more like a call to action but also gives location. Might be considered application instruction. Safer to remove? But location is substantive. However we have no heading for location; we could include location in About the role or Responsibilities as prose. The instruction says remove application instructions, but location is not exactly an instruction to apply; it's a statement about where they're hiring. Might be okay to keep as prose. But the line "We are hiring experienced commercial kitchen technicians in the Des Moines, Iowa area. If you repair restaurant equipment, we want to talk to you." The second sentence is definitely a call to action. The first sentence is location info. We could keep the first sentence as prose and discard the second. But we need to avoid duplication. Let's keep location info in About the role: "We are hiring experienced commercial kitchen technicians in the Des Moines, Iowa area." That's substantive.
Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
We'll produce something like:
