Sr Director, Programs

On-siteInformation TechnologyFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to follow rules: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: 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") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences. We need to parse the job posting content. Given content: Company Overview General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems (OTS) is a global leader in the design, engineering and production of munitions, energetics, weapons, armaments, and missile subsystems around the world. OTS empowers the U.S. military and its allies with an extensive range of overarching product segments applied across all levels of strategic and tactical operations, providing a cutting-edge advantage to our warfighters.

The statements do not represent an exhaustive list of required responsibilities and skills. Other duties may be added or this job description may be amended at any time. This job description does not alter an employee's at-will employment status or create an employment agreement or contract, implied or otherwise." We need to remove boilerplate: The disclaimer is legal boilerplate; we should remove it. Also remove duplicated lines? There's no duplication. We need to create sections: Possibly "About the role" (company overview?), "Responsibilities", "Requirements", "Qualifications", "Skills", "Benefits", "Pay", "Schedule". But we should only include sections if there is real specific content. We have: - Company Overview: description of company, ethos, total rewards package. Could be "About the role" or "Company Overview". The allowed headings list includes "About the role". We can use that. - Job Summary: description of responsibilities: "Plans, monitors and manages internal programs from initiation through completion | Leads or coordinates programs, resourcing, staffing, progress reporting, troubleshooting and indirect people management | Monitors performance and recommends schedule changes, cost adjustments or resource additions | Responsibilities are within the Project Management Function as a generalist or in a combination of Disciplines". This is responsibilities. - Impact of the Role General Profile: leadership, direct reports, accountable for performance, executes business plans, contributes to functional strategy, decisions guided by strategy, discretion & judgment. This could be part of responsibilities or maybe "Responsibilities". Could be combined. - Essential Functions: list of duties: P&L responsibility, directs and oversees corporate programs, develops and implements program processes and policies, directs program management staff, works with other department leaders to define, prioritize, develop projects and programs, directs work of programs staff to ensure work completed on time or per standards, ensures compliance, reviews all aspects of corporate programs, presents status updates, leads and directs work of other employees, responsibility for personnel actions (hiring, performance, disciplinary) with HR & GM concurrence. This is responsibilities. - Required Qualifications: education/experience, technical skills. - Preferred Qualifications: education/experience, discipline/major, knowledge/skills/abilities. - Physical Requirements: stationary position, movement, climate-controlled environment. - Travel Requirements: Up to 25% travel likely. - Benefits: The company overview mentions "robust total rewards package that goes above and beyond with compensation; healthcare, wellness, retirement, and work/life benefits that include career development and recognition programs." That's benefits info. So we can include a Benefits section. - Pay: Not explicitly stated. No salary range. So we should NOT include Pay section. - Schedule: Not explicitly stated. No mention of work schedule (full-time, part-time, shift). So we should NOT include Schedule. Thus sections: About the role (company overview + maybe job summary?), Responsibilities (job summary + impact + essential functions), Requirements (maybe required qualifications?), Qualifications (preferred qualifications?), Skills (maybe combine knowledge/skills/abilities from preferred?), Benefits, Physical Requirements, Travel Requirements. But we need to follow the allowed headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can also add other headings? The instruction says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies we should use those headings; but we can also use other headings if needed? It says "use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." That suggests those are the allowed headings; we should stick to them. However we have Physical Requirements and Travel Requirements which are not in list. Should we embed them under Requirements or Qualifications? Possibly under Requirements (since they are requirements). Or we could create a separate section but not in list? The instruction says use those headings for section headings; it's not explicitly forbidden to use others, but likely they expect only those. Safer to map Physical Requirements and Travel Requirements under Requirements or maybe under Qualifications? Physical requirements are more like job requirements, so under Requirements. Travel requirements also a requirement. Thus we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits. We need to decide what goes where. About the role: company overview paragraph. Responsibilities: combine Job Summary, Impact of the Role, Essential Functions. Requirements: Required Qualifications + Physical Requirements + Travel Requirements. Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications. Skills: Knowledge, skills & abilities from Preferred Qualifications (Ability to develop and mentor others, Management skills, Leadership skills, Oral and written communication skills, Ability to build collaborative relationships, Detail oriented, Ability to meet deadlines, Program management skills). Also maybe technical skills from Required Qualifications (Proficient in Microsoft Office). Could be placed under Skills as well. But we need to avoid duplication. Let's extract all substantive info. Company Overview paragraph: "General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems (OTS) is a global leader in the design, engineering and production of munitions, energetics, weapons, armaments, and missile subsystems around the world. OTS empowers the U.S. military and its allies with an extensive range of overarching product segments applied across all levels of strategic and tactical operations, providing a cutting-edge advantage to our warfighters. Our Ethos of Honesty, Trust, Transparency, and Alignment, are the guiding principles that form the foundation of everything we do.

If who we are and what we do resonates with you, we invite you to join our high-performance team!" We can keep that as About the role. Responsibilities: Let's gather: - Plans, monitors and manages internal programs from initiation through completion - Leads or coordinates programs, resourcing, staffing, progress reporting, troubleshooting and indirect people management - Monitors performance and recommends schedule changes, cost adjustments or resource additions - Responsibilities are within the Project Management Function as a generalist or in a combination of Disciplines - Provides leadership and direction through managers - Must have at least one manager level direct report - Is accountable for the performance and results of a division or region - Executes business plans and contributes to the development of functional strategy - Decisions are guided by functional or major operational segment strategy and priorities - Consistent exercise of discretion & judgment - Has P&L responsibility - Directs and oversees corporate programs that meet the needs of the organization or its employees or customers. - Develops and implements program processes and policies - Directs program management staff - Works with other department leaders to define, prioritize, and develop projects and programs - Directs the work of programs staff to ensure that work is completed on time or in accordance with established standards or specifications. - Ensures that activities are in compliance with organizational policies and any relevant external regulations. - Reviews all aspects of corporate programs, including planning, budgeting, staffing, and performance.
