We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes sections: "Who you'll work with", "What you'll do", "What you'll bring", "Qualifications", "About Us", "Compensation and Benefits". According to rules: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to map headings accordingly. We should not repeat job title. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content for: Who you'll work with (intro about team), What you'll do (responsibilities), What you'll bring (skills/qualifications), Qualifications (certifications etc), About Us (company description), Compensation and Benefits (pay ranges, benefits). Also maybe "Skills" could be derived from "What you'll bring" but we can treat as Skills. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to convert bullet-like sentences into lists. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, accommodations, application instructions, cookie/navigation/legal, duplicated lines. Also remove "We are committed to pay transparency..." etc? That's part of compensation but maybe still relevant? It's about pay range contact. Might be considered boilerplate? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The EEO section is separate; we should remove it. The compensation contact line maybe not boilerplate but it's about pay range contact; could be kept? It's not EEO. Might be okay to keep as part of Compensation and Benefits. However it's a contact email; maybe keep. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include details about responsibilities, qualifications, certifications, benefits, pay ranges, about us. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We'll produce HTML fragment with

    headings: maybe "About the team" (Who you'll work with) but the allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could map: "Who you'll work with" -> maybe "About the role"? Not exactly. Could use "About the role" for description of role and team. But we have separate sections for responsibilities etc. Let's decide: - Use

    About the role

    for the introductory paragraph about who you'll work with and role context. - Use

    Responsibilities

    for "What you'll do". - Use

    Qualifications

    for "What you'll bring" plus maybe also separate "Qualifications" heading for certifications? Actually there is a "Qualifications:" section later. Could combine? But we should not duplicate. Perhaps we treat "What you'll bring" as Skills, and the later "Qualifications:" as Qualifications (certifications, experience). The allowed headings include Skills and Qualifications. So we can have:

    Skills

    for "What you'll bring" (skills, experience, traits).

    Qualifications

    for the "Qualifications:" section (experience, certifications, etc).

    Benefits

    for benefits description.

    Pay

    for compensation ranges.

    About Us

    maybe not in allowed list but we could use "About the role"? Actually we have About Us separate; we could treat as "About the role"? Not ideal. The allowed headings list is examples, not strict? The instruction: "Use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It suggests we should use those headings when applicable, but we can also use other headings if needed? It says use

    for section headings (e.g. ...). Likely we should stick to those headings; but we have About Us content, maybe we can put under "About the role"? Or we could create a heading "About the company" but not in list. Safer to put under "About the role"? However the instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it." It doesn't forbid other headings, but gives examples. I'd include About Us as a heading maybe "About the company". But to be safe, I'll include an

    About Us

    as it's substantive. We need to output only HTML fragment, no markdown. Let's extract content. Who you'll work with paragraph: "As a modern technology company, our Slalom Technologists are disrupting the market and bringing to life the art of the possible for our clients. We have passion for building strategies, solutions, and creative products to help our clients solve their most complex and interesting business problems.
