We need to output HTML fragment with sections: h3 headings for sections present: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (or Minimum Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications?), Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Content: - Intro paragraph about Meta seeking principal engineers, description of Central Integrity team, mission, etc. This could be "About the role" or maybe "About Meta"? The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which sections are present. We have: - About the role: The intro paragraph describing the role, team, mission, etc. That is about the role. So we can have

About the role

with a

containing that description. - Responsibilities: There's a list after "Software Engineer, Infrastructure (Technical Leadership) Responsibilities:" then bullet points (though they are sentences separated by line breaks). We need to put them in

  • . - Minimum Qualifications: list after "Minimum Qualifications:" then bullet points. - Preferred Qualifications: list after "Preferred Qualifications:" then bullet points. - Skills: Not explicitly listed, but we could combine qualifications? The instruction says use Skills section if present. There's no explicit "Skills" heading, but we could treat qualifications as skills? However we should not invent sections. So we should not create Skills unless there is explicit skill list. There's mention of programming languages etc. That's under Preferred Qualifications. So we could keep qualifications sections. - Benefits: The posting mentions "$219,000/year to $301,000/year + bonus + equity + benefits". Also later: "In addition to base compensation, Meta offers benefits. Learn more about benefits at Meta." So there is mention of benefits but not detailed. The rule: never create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It does state benefits exist, but not details. Is that enough? The rule says: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It states benefits exist, but not details. Should we include a Benefits section? It says "Meta offers benefits." That's a statement. Could be considered stating them, albeit vague. However the instruction also says: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." And "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')". Benefits statement is vague but not placeholder like "varies". It says "Meta offers benefits." That's not specific content but it's a statement. Might be considered filler? I'd lean to not include Benefits section because no specific benefits listed. Similarly Pay: they give salary range: "$219,000/year to $301,000/year + bonus + equity + benefits". That's specific content (range). So we should include Pay section. Schedule: Not mentioned. So omit. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Minimum Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Pay. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all bullet points exactly as given (maybe rephrase? No, preserve). We'll copy the text. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we need to strip the EEO paragraph, the "About Meta" paragraph? Actually "About Meta:" is a section describing the company. Is that considered boilerplate? It's not navigation/legal/EEO, but it's about the company. The instruction says we can use sections like About the role, Responsibilities, etc. The "About Meta:" could be considered part of About the role? Might be separate but we already have About the role. The "About Meta:" paragraph is generic company description; could be considered boilerplate? It's not EEO but it's still generic. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." It doesn't say to remove generic company description. However we already have About the role covering the role; the About Meta may be considered extra but not prohibited. However we might want to include it in About the role? The About the role currently includes the intro paragraph about Central Integrity team etc. The About Meta paragraph is separate; we could append it to About the role as additional prose. That would preserve all substantive info. Let's do that: combine the intro paragraph and the About Meta paragraph into About the role section. But we must not repeat the job title as a heading. The job title appears: "Software Engineer, Infrastructure (Technical Leadership)". We should not put that as heading. It's currently before Responsibilities line. We'll just treat it as part of the intro? Actually it's a label before Responsibilities. We'll keep it maybe as part of Responsibilities section? The line: "Software Engineer, Infrastructure (Technical Leadership) Responsibilities:" So we need to extract responsibilities after that. We'll drop that label. Thus About the role paragraph: combine: "Meta is seeking talented principal engineers to join our Central Integrity team, which exists to keep billions of people safe on Meta's platforms. We design and deploy systems that detect and disrupt harm at an unprecedented global scale, making this one of the largest deployments of AI for positive real-world impact anywhere in the industry. Our work safeguards critical areas, including child and youth safety, fraud and scams, identity and authenticity, and more, while actively building defenses against novel frontier threats, such as autonomous AI agents and automated risk vectors. This represents some of the most technically demanding and high-stakes engineering and product at Meta, driven by a deeply mission-focused team. You'll combine strong engineering fundamentals with cutting-edge AI to build effective, adaptable solutions that stay ahead of evolving integrity and safety risks. If you are driven by hard technical challenges and want your work to deliver immediate, real-world impact, this is the right role for you." Then add About Meta paragraph: "Meta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps like Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology. People who choose to build their careers by building with us at Meta help shape a future that will take us beyond what digital connection makes possible today—beyond the constraints of screens, the limits of distance, and even the rules of physics." We'll combine into one

    maybe two paragraphs? Could be two

    under same heading. That's fine. Now Responsibilities: list items: - Drive the team's goals and technical direction to pursue opportunities that make your larger organization more efficient - Effectively communicate complex features and systems in detail - Understand industry and company-wide trends to help assess and develop new technologies - Partner and collaborate with organization leaders to help improve the level of performance of the team and organization - Identify new opportunities for the larger organization and influence the appropriate people for staffing and prioritizing these new ideas - Lead long-term technical vision and roadmap for large cross-company efforts - Suggest, collect and synthesize requirements and create an effective feature roadmap - Identify and resolve performance and scalability issues, and drive large efforts to reduce technical debt We need to put each as

  • . Minimum Qualifications: - Experience mentoring/influencing executive stakeholders across organizations - Experience utilizing data and analysis to explain technical problems and provide detailed feedback and solutions - Experience driving large cross-functional, industry-wide engineering efforts - Experience communicating and working across functions to drive solutions - Proven track record of planning multi-year roadmaps in which short-term projects ladder to the long-term mission Preferred Qualifications: - Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements) - Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews) - Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies - 8+ years relevant experience building large-scale infrastructure applications or similar experience - Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies (duplicate line appears twice; we need to remove duplicated lines). So we should include only once. - Experience improving quality through thoughtful code reviews, appropriate testing, proper rollout, monitoring, and proactive changes - Experience in programming languages such as C, C++, or Java, and scripting languages such as Python, JavaScript, or Hack Note there is a duplicate line for Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development... We'll include only once. Pay: "$219,000/year to $301,000/year + bonus + equity + benefits". Also note later: "Individual compensation is determined by skills, qualifications, experience, and location. Compensation details listed in this posting reflect the base hourly rate, monthly rate, or annual salary only, and do not include bonus, equity or sales incentives, if applicable." That's additional detail about compensation. Should we include that? It's substantive. We'll include in Pay section maybe as a

    after the range. Thus Pay section:

    Pay

    $219,000/year to $301,000/year + bonus + equity + benefits

    Individual compensation is determined by skills, qualifications, experience, and location. Compensation details listed in this posting reflect the base hourly rate, monthly rate, or annual salary only, and do not include bonus, equity or sales incentives, if applicable.

    We should not include Schedule. Now ensure we removed boilerplate: EEO paragraph, "About Meta:" heading? We incorporated About Meta into About the role. Also removed "Please note that Meta may leverage artificial intelligence..." etc. Also removed "Meta is committed to providing reasonable accommodations..." etc. Also removed "Learn more about benefits at Meta." (we kept benefits mention in Pay but not separate). Also removed "Individual compensation is determined..." we kept. Now output HTML fragment only. Let's craft:
