for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: About the role (Job Purpose description). Responsibilities (What you will do... sections). Requirements (list). Qualifications? Not separate; maybe Requirements covers. Skills (list). Benefits (list). Pay (Pay Range). Schedule? Not mentioned. So we should not include Schedule. Also maybe Qualifications not present; we can omit. We must not repeat job title as heading. Do not include Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; we can put them in a short
or drop. The posting includes "Req #: 71463". We'll put that in a
maybe after headings. We must preserve all substantive info, not invent. Remove boilerplate: employee link, founding info, etc? The instructions: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The founding info maybe not boilerplate but is company description; it's substantive? It might be considered background but not required? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." The company description is substantive? It's about the company, not the job. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not navigation/legal/EEO. It's company overview. Might be okay to keep? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. It doesn't say to remove company overview. So we can keep it as a paragraph maybe under About the role? Actually About the role section should contain the job purpose description. The company overview could be placed before sections as a

for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
