Software Engineering Internship
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; can fold minor metadata into short
or drop it. We must preserve all substantive info, no invention, no summarizing away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. We need to extract content: - Additional Location(s): N/A (ignore) - Diversity - Innovation - Caring - Global Collaboration - Winning Spirit - High Performance (maybe part of culture but not a section; could be omitted as boilerplate? It's not a standard heading; maybe we can include as a paragraph under About the role? But it's generic values; might be considered boilerplate? It's not EEO but still generic corporate values. Probably safe to drop as not specific to role. - At Boston Scientific, we’ll give you the opportunity... (intro) - could be part of About the role? Actually there is a separate "About The Role" heading later. The intro before that is generic company description; could be considered boilerplate but it's about the company; maybe we can include as a paragraph under About the role? But the instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We could combine company overview into About the role section. - "We will consider qualified applicants of all ages who are starting (or restarting) their careers" - maybe part of Requirements? Not exactly; could be part of Qualifications? It's about eligibility; but we have specific qualifications later. Might be considered boilerplate EEO-ish but not exactly; still generic. Could drop. - "At Boston Scientific, we value collaboration and synergy. This role follows an on-site work model, requiring employees to be in our local office at least 5 days per week. Relocation and housing assistance may be available to those who meet the eligibility criteria. Boston Scientific will not offer sponsorship or take over sponsorship of an employment VISA for this position at this time" - This includes work model (on-site 5 days/week) -> could be Schedule? Actually schedule is about hours; but we have location and work model. Could be part of About the role or a separate section like Work Model? Not in allowed headings. Could be placed in a paragraph under About the role or maybe under Requirements? It's not a qualification. Could be a short paragraph under About the role. - "About The Role" heading: we should use
About the Role
and then content. Content under About The Role: description of Interventional Oncology & Embolization franchise, products, join us, role description: software engineering intern will collaborate..., core dev environment C++, Qt, Linux OS. We need to preserve all substantive info. Then "Your Responsibilities Will Include As a R&D Engineering Intern at Boston Scientific, you will…" followed by bullet-like sentences separated by periods. We need to convert to- list.
List items:
- Use your problem-solving abilities to perform meaningful engineering work.
- Grow your skillset through a combination of training, hands-on experience, and mentorship.
- Support designing, developing and maintaining application and system software for our medical devices using C++ and Qt.
- Collaborate with a cross-functional team.
- Assist new product development teams in device development and testing.
- Research and analyze clinical and market data for new market opportunities.
- Familiarity with analytical tools such as Python Pandas and Matlab
- Basic understanding of asymmetric cryptography, including public/private key concepts, and familiarity with digital certificates and certificate-based security (e.g., PKI, TLS/SSL, and certificate management).
Note: The last two items seem like qualifications but are listed under responsibilities; we keep as responsibilities.
Then "Required Qualifications" heading ->
Required Qualifications
and list. List items: - Must graduate between Fall 2027 and Spring 2029 - Currently pursuing a degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, and Electrical Engineering - Must be able to commit to one of the following full internship program periods: May 17th – August 6th OR May 24th – August 13th - Must be eligible to work in the U.S. without company sponsorship, now or in the future, for employment-based work authorization - Must have reliable transportation to and from the Maple Grove, MN (Arbor Lakes) Boston Scientific Corporate location - Strong embedded software design knowledge - Qt, Python and/or Matlab experience Note: The last two are maybe "Required Qualifications" includes "Strong embedded software design knowledge" and "Qt, Python and/or Matlab experience". Yes. Then "Preferred Qualifications" heading ->Preferred Qualifications
list: - Strong software development experience in embedded Linux device design and knowledge of user interface (UI) development using Qt. - Ability to communicate effectively with diverse cross-functional teams. - Ability and passion to learn new technologies and find new solutions. Then "Requisition ID: 634561" - minor metadata; we can fold into a shortmaybe at top or bottom. Not a heading. Then "Minimum Salary: $ 43368 Maximum Salary: $ 73736" - This is Pay info. We need to include a Pay section if posting actually states them. Yes, they state min and max salary. So we should create a
Pay
and include that info. Also note the subsequent text about compensation varying etc. That's also compensation detail; we should include that as part of Pay section (prose). However we must not include filler like "commensurate with experience" etc. The instruction: "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., 'commensurate with experience', 'not specified', 'N/A', 'varies', 'TBD')". The posting includes: "The anticipated compensation listed above and the value of core and optional employee benefits offered by Boston Scientific (BSC) – see www.bscbenefitsconnect.com—will vary based on actual location of the position and other pertinent factors considered in determining actual compensation for the role. Compensation will be commensurate with demonstrable level of experience and training, pertinent education including licensure and certifications, among other relevant business or organizational needs. At BSC, it is not typical for an individual to be hired near the bottom or top of the anticipated salary range listed above. Compensation for non-exempt (hourly), non-sales roles may also include variable compensation from time to time (e.g., any overtime and shift differential) and annual bonus target (subject to plan eligibility and other requirements). Compensation for exempt, non-sales roles may also include variable compensation, i.e., annual bonus target and long-term incentives (subject to plan eligibility and other requirements)." This includes phrases like "will vary based on actual location", "commensurate with demonstrable level", "not typical for an individual to be hired near the bottom or top". These are not placeholders like "commensurate with experience" but they are somewhat generic. However the instruction says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). The example includes "commensurate with experience". Here we have "commensurate with demonstrable level of experience and training". That's similar but not exactly the example. Might be considered filler? It's somewhat generic but still provides info. The instruction says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). It seems they want to avoid sections where the content is just generic placeholder like "commensurate with experience". However the posting does give actual numbers, so we can include Pay section with the numbers and maybe a brief note that compensation varies based on location etc. That's not purely filler. Thus we include Pay section with the salary range and maybe a short sentence about variation. We must not include Benefits or Schedule sections unless posting actually states them. There's mention of Relocation and housing assistance may be available; that's a benefit. Also mention of core and optional employee benefits offered by BSC – see link. That's benefits info. So we could include a Benefits section. However the instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We have many sections already: About the role, Responsibilities, Required Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Pay, maybe Benefits. Could combine Benefits into Pay? But they are distinct categories. The allowed headings include Benefits. We have some info: Relocation and housing assistance may be available; core and optional employee benefits; link. That's substantive enough? It's somewhat generic but still specific: relocation and housing assistance may be available. That's a benefit. So we could include Benefits section. Schedule: The posting mentions on-site work model requiring employees to be in local office at least 5 days per week. That's schedule/work arrangement. Could be considered Schedule section. The allowed heading Schedule. We could include Schedule section with that info. Thus we may have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Required Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Pay, Benefits, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID/requisition as heading; we can put Requisition ID in a short paragraph maybe under About the role or at end. We must remove boilerplate: EEO statements, diversity values, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions (none). Remove legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. Also remove the long corporate description about Boston Scientific transforms lives etc. That's boilerplate; we can drop. Also remove the line about "We will consider qualified applicants of all ages who are starting (or restarting) their careers" maybe borderline but it's not EEO; still generic. Could drop. Also remove the line about "At Boston Scientific, we value collaboration and synergy." That's generic values; could drop but we might keep the on-site work model and relocation info. Actually that sentence includes collaboration and synergy (generic) plus on-site work model and relocation. We could extract the on-site work model and relocation into Benefits or Schedule, and drop the generic fluff. Thus we need to parse the posting and keep only substantive info. Let's extract substantive info: - About the role: description of Interventional Oncology & Embolization franchise, products, role description: software engineering intern will collaborate with systems, electrical, mechanical engineers and technician to develop features and updates for cryoablation family of devices. Core development environment include C++, Qt, and Linux OS. - Responsibilities: list as above. - Required Qualifications: list as above. - Preferred Qualifications: list as above. - Pay: Minimum Salary: $43,368 Maximum Salary: $73,736. Also note compensation varies based on location etc. Could include a sentence: "Compensation varies based on location and other factors; see benefits link for details." But we must not invent. We can include the exact sentences about compensation varying etc. That's from posting. It's not placeholder; it's specific. So we can include that as prose. - Benefits: Relocation and housing assistance may be available to those who meet eligibility criteria. Also core and optional employee benefits offered by BSC – see www.bscbenefitsconnect.com. That's benefits. - Schedule: On-site work model, requiring employees to be in local office at least 5 days per week. - Additional metadata: Requisition ID: 634561. Could be a short paragraph. We must not include the line about "Boston Scientific will not offer sponsorship or take over sponsorship of an employment VISA for this position at this time". That's about visa sponsorship; could be considered part of Required Qualifications (must be eligible to work in US without sponsorship). Already we have that qualification. So we can drop the separate sentence. We must not include the line about "For MA
