Sr. Cybersecurity Engineer
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all responsibilities items exactly as given. Also required qualifications items. Preferred qualifications items. Also maybe include work mode and relocation as a short p under maybe a section? Could be part of About the role? But we have headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Required and Preferred?), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. The instructions: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Required and Preferred into Requirements section with subheadings? But we only allowed
for section headings; we could have nested headings? Not specified. Probably better to have separate sections: Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications as separate headings? But they said use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). They list Qualifications as a possible heading. So we could have a Qualifications section that includes both required and preferred? Or we could have Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications as subheadings using maybe ? Not allowed? They only gave examples but didn't forbid other headings. Safer to follow examples: Use for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can have a Qualifications section that contains both required and preferred lists. Could separate with
headings inside? Might be okay to use or with bold. But we need to preserve detail. We'll put a Qualifications section with two subsections: maybe
Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Not prohibited. But to be safe, we can just put all qualifications in one list, distinguishing required vs preferred via text. But that would lose distinction. Better to include headings inside the Qualifications section using or . The instruction didn't forbid other headings; just said use for section headings (e.g., list). It didn't say you cannot use other heading levels. So we can use for subheadings.

Pay
Minimum Salary: $85,000; Maximum Salary: $161,500. (Note about compensation varying etc.) We need to preserve all substantive information: include the note about compensation varying based on location, etc., and that it's not typical to be hired near bottom/top, variable compensation, bonus, long-term incentives, etc. That's a lot of prose. We'll include as

Schedule
Hybrid or onsite work model requiring employees to be in the Maple Grove (Arbor Lakes), MN office at least three days per week. Relocation assistance may be available for select out-of-state candidates.
We should also include location maybe? Additional Location(s): N/A ignore.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, diversity, COVID, prohibited substance test, etc. Remove those.
Check for any other substantive info: The "Work Mode At Boston Scientific, we value collaboration. This role follows a hybrid or onsite work model, requiring employees to be in our Maple Grove (Arbor Lakes), MN office at least three days per week. Relocation: Relocation assistance may be available for select out-of-state candidates." Already captured.
Also there is a line: "Additional Location(s): N/A" ignore.
Also there is a line: "Diversity - Innovation - Caring - Global Collaboration - Winning Spirit - High Performance" maybe part of boilerplate? It's a list of values; could be considered substantive? It's not a section heading; but it's not a responsibility or qualification. It's maybe part of company culture. The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Diversity statement maybe not boilerplate but could be considered EEO? It's a values list. Might be okay to keep? But it's not under a heading; could be placed in About the role? However it's before About The Role. It might be considered boilerplate? Not sure. Safer to omit it as it's not directly about the role. The instruction says remove boilerplate; diversity statement could be considered boilerplate. I'd omit.
Also there is a line: "At Boston Scientific, we’ll give you the opportunity to harness all that’s within you by working in teams of diverse and high-performing employees, tackling some of the most important health industry challenges. With access to the latest tools, information and training, we’ll help you in advancing your skills and career. Here, you’ll be supported in progressing – whatever your ambitions." That's part of About the role? Actually it's before About The Role heading. It seems like generic intro. Could be considered part of About the role? But we already have About The Role heading with its own paragraph. The intro could be considered part of About the role as well. To preserve all substantive information, we should include that intro as part of About the role paragraph. So we combine that intro with the paragraph under About The Role.
Thus About the role paragraph: combine the intro sentences and the paragraph under About The Role.
Let's craft:
At Boston Scientific, we’ll give you the opportunity to harness all that’s within you by working in teams of diverse and high-performing employees, tackling some of the most important health industry challenges.

Note: there is a typo "Mininum" but we preserve as is? Should we keep exactly? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail.
