Sr Analyst/Application Services/Technical

for prose. We need to extract prose for About the role: The first paragraph(s) before POSITION DIMENSIONS? Actually the description: "The Sr Analyst Application Services/Technical is a high-level individual contributor...". That's about the role. Also includes POSITION DIMENSIONS paragraph maybe also part of About the role? It mentions accountability, exchanges info. Could be part of About the role. We'll include that as prose. Responsibilities: The "ESSENTIAL JOB RESPONSIBILITIES" section with bullet points. We need to convert each bullet into

with each responsibility as
• . Might be many items; we need to keep them. Qualifications: The paragraph after QUALIFICATIONS: "There are clear precedents...". Also includes education/experience, competencies list (but we will move competencies to Skills). Also includes certification statements. We'll put prose for qualifications (education/experience, precedences, certification). Then Skills: list of competencies: Ability to work as part of a team; Problem management; Problem-solving skills; Analytical thinking skills; Technical expertise; Debugging skills; Computer skills; Detail oriented; Ability to meet deadlines; Project management skills; In-depth experience with two or more programming languages or frameworks. Industry recognized certification(s) relevant to responsibilities are preferred. Incumbents performing activities requiring government, regulatory or vendor certification must keep those certifications current. Actually that last sentence about certification could be part of Qualifications or Skills. We'll keep certification note in Qualifications maybe. But we already have certification note; we can include in Qualifications. Pay: Salary details paragraph. We must not include boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. The posting ends after salary details; no extra. Now produce HTML fragment. Structure:
