Software Engineer SME

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role (maybe from Job Summary), Responsibilities and Duties, Requirements (maybe Experience Needed), Benefits. Also maybe Pay: they gave salary range "Up to $210K (salary is commensurate with education and experience)". The rule: do NOT include Pay section unless posting actually states them and not filler like "commensurate with experience". The posting says "Salary Range: Up to $210K (salary is commensurate with education and experience)". That's a specific range, though includes "commensurate". It's still a specific number. Should we include Pay? The instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state a salary range. So we can include Pay section with that info. However they also say "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Could combine Pay into About? But they said use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can include Pay. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: EEO, contact info? Contact info maybe not needed? It's not boilerplate but contact info maybe not required; but we can keep? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Contact info maybe not boilerplate but could be considered contact. Might keep? Safer to drop contact info as it's not substantive job description. Also drop "Powered by JazzHR". Also drop "Please Note This job requires an existing Top Secret Clearance and Polygraph." That's part of requirements; we can incorporate into Requirements. We need to preserve all substantive information: job summary, responsibilities list, experience needed (technical skills), benefits list. We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the bullet points as list items. We need to use

for section headings. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We need to decide sections: About the role (Job Summary), Responsibilities and Duties, Requirements (Experience Needed), Benefits, Pay. We must not include Schedule (not present). Qualifications/Skills maybe split but we can combine into Requirements. We must not create headings with filler text. Let's extract content. Job Summary paragraph: "We are seeking support for an information technology program that supports a mission operations system responsible for securely processing, disseminating and storing data. Requires strong Java development (Java17 or later), Confluence, JAVA EE development experience or Jakarta; PKI SSL/TLS. No cloud experience required." Also note "Please Note This job requires an existing Top Secret Clearance and Polygraph." That's a requirement. Responsibilities and Duties: list of many items after "Responsibilities and Duties". We'll capture each sentence as list item. Experience Needed: includes citizenship, clearance, expert-level knowledge list. We'll need to preserve all items. It's a long list; we can break into list items each bullet separated by commas? The original is a paragraph with many items separated by commas and semicolons. We need to preserve all substantive information; we can turn each distinct requirement into a list item. Must not invent or summarize away detail. We need to ensure we capture each piece. Let's parse the Experience Needed section: "Citizenship: Must Be a US Citizen Existing Clearance Required: Active Top Secret SCI with Poly Expert-level knowledge of Core Java (NOT Spring Boot), Eclipse IDE v2026, Java 17 or later, JVM, JRE, and JDK concepts, JavaScript, AJAX, jQuery, JSP, Apache Tomcat 11 or later, Tomcat connector, MariaDB (MySQL) v10 or latest, HTML5, CSS, JSON/XML HTTP, HTTPS, REST API, SSH, PKI, OpenSSL, Putty, Linux and LDAP.

Optional Skills: "Some experience integrating Python into web applications;Some experience Writing Confluence pluginsFamiliar w/ Windows Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) – for issuing and managing key infrastructure (PKI) certificates" We could include Optional Skills as part of Requirements or separate Skills section. Since we have Skills heading possible, we could put Optional Skills under Skills. But we need to avoid thin sections. Could combine Optional Skills into Requirements as a sublist? Might be okay. Benefits: list: "Medical, Dental, Vision, Health Savings Account, Paid Time Off, Holidays, Social Events, Employee Assistance Program, Team Building Activities, 401K, Tuition Assistance, and more." Pay: "Salary Range: Up to $210K (salary is commensurate with education and experience)". We'll include that. Now produce HTML. We need to wrap sections in appropriate tags. Example:

  About the role

  We are seeking support for an information technology program that supports a mission operations system responsible for securely processing, disseminating and storing data. Requires strong Java development (Java17 or later), Confluence, JAVA EE development experience or Jakarta; PKI SSL/TLS. No cloud experience required. This position requires an existing Top Secret Clearance and Polygraph.

  But we moved clearance note to About? Could also put in Requirements. Better to keep About just job summary; clearance in Requirements. Thus About: just the job summary sentence(s). We'll include the two sentences: first about IT program, second about Java dev etc. We'll keep as one paragraph. Now Responsibilities:

  Responsibilities and Duties

  then
  with each duty as
  • . We need to extract each duty sentence from the block after "Responsibilities and Duties". Let's list them: - Design and develop tools that integrate with commercial applications. - Design and develop collaborative tools, data manipulation techniques, data visualization techniques, and directory services. - Provide operations and maintenance of operational systems. - Modify existing software to correct errors, allow it to adapt to new hardware or software, or to improve its performance. - Analyze user needs and software requirements to determine feasibility of design within time and cost restraints. - Consult with customers about software system design and maintenance. - Develop and direct software system testing and validation procedures, programming, and documentation. - Confer with systems analysts, engineers, programmers and others to obtain information on project limitations and capabilities, performance requirements and interfaces. - Compile and write documentation of program development and subsequent revisions, inserting comments in the coded instruction so others can understand the program. - Write, update, and maintain computer programs or software packages for receiving, transmitting, processing and storing mission data. - Consult with managerial, engineering, and technical personnel to clarify program requirements. - Identify complex problems and review related information to develop and evaluate options and implement new ones. - Test, debug, and refine the computer software to produce the required product. That's 13 items. Now Requirements:

    Requirements

    then
    with each requirement. We need to list each distinct requirement.
