We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate. Must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We need to parse the posting. Let's extract sections: - About Us: description of company culture. Could map to "About the role"? Actually "About Us" is company description. The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content accordingly. "About Us" could be placed under "About the role"? Probably we can put under

About the role

with the company description and job summary. - Job Summary: description of role. Also part of About the role. - Core Responsibilities: list of duties. Should go under

Responsibilities

with
  • items. - Ideal Candidate: list of qualifications/experience. Could go under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction: we have separate headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide where to put content. Likely Requirements: minimum years experience, management skills, knowledge of codes, communication, multitasking, proficiency in software, degree, PE preferred, BMS and LEED accreditation. Qualifications: maybe education and certifications. Skills: technical skills like Revit, BIM 360, SKM power tools, NEC, Title 24, etc. But we must not create thin sections; we can combine if appropriate. We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's extract bullet-like sentences. From Core Responsibilities: many sentences each starting with Ability to... etc. We'll turn each into
  • . From Ideal Candidate: bullet list: Minimum of 5-8 years of relevant experience in the design field. Exceptional management and supervisory skills. Highly knowledgeable of codes, standards, and construction/engineering processes. Excellent verbal and written communication skills. Ability to multi-task and work in a fast-paced environment with multiple project deadlines. Proficient in Microsoft Office Suite, Bluebeam, Revit, and other engineering analysis and compliance software tools. Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering. Professional Engineer (PE) Certification, preferred. BMS and LEED Accreditation. From Essential Requirements: Strong knowledge of CA & Local codes. NEC Proficient in Revit, BIM 360 Working knowledge of SKM power tools or similar Also Salary Range: hybrid role, expected salary range $105,000 - $120,000 for San Francisco. Also note about working days in office at San Francisco office. That's schedule info? It says hybrid role, anticipated working days in office will be done at our San Francisco, CA office. That's schedule/location. Could be placed under Schedule? Or maybe we create a Schedule section with that info. Also Pay section with salary range. Benefits: not mentioned. So we should not create Benefits section. Thus sections: About the role (company description + job summary), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Ideal Candidate + Essential Requirements?), Qualifications (maybe education/PE?), Skills (technical proficiencies). But we need to avoid thin sections. Could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But we have headings list; we can choose to include only those with substantive content. Let's see: - About the role: we have About Us + Job Summary. Good. - Responsibilities: we have many items. - Requirements: we have Ideal Candidate (experience, management skills, knowledge, communication, multitasking, software proficiency, degree, PE preferred, BMS/LEED). Also Essential Requirements (CA/local codes, NEC, Revit, BIM 360, SKM power tools). That's substantive. - Qualifications: maybe we could put degree and PE certification here, but they are already in Requirements. Could split: Requirements = experience and skills; Qualifications = education and certifications. But we risk thin Qualifications if only degree and PE. However we also have BMS and LEED accreditation (maybe qual). That's still thin. Might be better to combine into Requirements and not create Qualifications section. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can omit Qualifications if it would be thin. - Skills: we have technical skills like Revit, BIM 360, SKM power tools, NEC, Title 24, EnergyPro, COMCheck, etc. Those are also in Responsibilities and Essential Requirements. Could be separate but may be thin. However we have many specific technical abilities listed in Responsibilities (voltage drop calculations, etc.) Those are more responsibilities than skills. But we could still have Skills section for software proficiencies: Microsoft Office Suite, Bluebeam, Revit, other engineering analysis and compliance software tools; Proficient in Revit, BIM 360; Working knowledge of SKM power tools or similar; Knowledge of NEC, Title 24, EnergyPro, COMCheck. That's substantive enough. - Pay: we have salary range $105,000 - $120,000. Also mention hybrid role, working days in office at San Francisco. That could be Schedule. - Schedule: hybrid role, anticipated working days in office will be done at our San Francisco, CA office. That's schedule info. Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Pay, Schedule. We must not include Benefits. Now we need to format. We'll produce:
