Sr. Facilities Systems Engineer
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from posting, but can combine similar items? Must not lose detail. We need to be careful to include all bullet points.
Let's extract sections:
- About the role / introductory paragraph: "When you work at Trex, you’re helping to grow and enhance a true original. You join a company that boldly launched an entire industry… and still leads the way. We are seeking an experienced Senior Mechanical Engineer to lead the design, operation, and continuous improvement of complex industrial facility systems supporting manufacturing and process operations. This role is responsible for ensuring reliable, efficient, and safe performance of mechanical utility systems including chilled water, compressed dry air (CDA), vacuum, steam generation, hot oil, exhaust, air abatement, wastewater processing, HVAC, and material conveyance systems. The ideal candidate will combine strong technical expertise with practical problem-solving skills and hands-on experience in industrial environments."
That's prose.
- Responsibilities: list items with headings? The posting has headings within responsibilities: "Put safety first – Always! Lead and foster our “people first” culture." then sections: System Engineering & Design, Operations & Maintenance Support, Project Management, Process & Energy Optimization, Safety & Compliance, Perform other related duties as assigned.
We need to output as a list (
- ) each duty. Could combine each bullet as list item. Should we preserve the subheadings? Probably each bullet can be a list item containing the heading and details. Eg:
- Put safety first – Always! Lead and foster our “people first” culture.
etc.
But we must not invent. Use the text as is.
- Requirements/Qualifications: includes Experience: "We are looking for leaders with a Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or Chemical Engineering and a minimum 7 years of relevant experience in industrial or manufacturing facilities, preferably in plastic composite extrusion manufacturing, chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, or advanced manufacturing environments."
Then "Required Skills & Experience" list: Strong knowledge of thermal systems, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer principles. Proficient in design and operation of utility systems (chillers, boilers, CDA, vacuum, HVAC, etc.). Familiar with ASME, ANSI, NFPA, and other relevant industry codes and standards. Experience with AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or similar design software; Strong analytical and problem-solving ability. Excellent communication and collaboration skills. Proven ability to manage multiple projects and priorities. Proven ability to complete projects according to outlined scope, budget, and timeline Experience presenting to stakeholders and / or Senior Leadership Able to define and establish new, efficient processes with appropriate controls Strong decision making/problem solving skills; can identify issues, recommend, and implement solutions
Then "Preferred Skills & Experience": Familiarity with CMMS and SCADA systems is a plus.
We could combine Required and Preferred into one list? But better to have separate sections: Requirements (maybe include Experience and Required Skills) and Preferred Skills. However the instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Experience and Required Skills into a "Qualifications" section. Preferred could be separate or included as part of Qualifications with note. But we must not create thin sections; maybe we have Qualifications (including required and preferred) and Benefits, Pay.
But we need to include all details. Could do:
About the Role
...
Responsibilities
- Put safety first – Always! Lead and foster our “people first” culture.
- System Engineering & Design: Design, specify, and optimize mechanical utility systems (e.g., chillers, boilers, air compressors, vacuum systems, hot oil loops, HVAC). Develop and maintain P&IDs, equipment specifications, and system documentation. Lead design reviews and coordinate with internal stakeholders and external engineering firms.
... etc.
We need to ensure we capture all responsibilities text.
Let's copy responsibilities text exactly:
"Put safety first – Always!Lead and foster our “people first” culture.System Engineering & DesignDesign, specify, and optimize mechanical utility systems (e.g., chillers, boilers, air compressors, vacuum systems, hot oil loops, HVAC).Develop and maintain P&IDs, equipment specifications, and system documentation.Lead design reviews and coordinate with internal stakeholders and external engineering firms.Operations & Maintenance SupportProvide technical support to operations and maintenance teams to ensure reliable system performance.Develop preventive and predictive maintenance plans for critical equipment.Lead troubleshooting and root cause analysis of mechanical and process system issues.Project ManagementManage small to medium capital projects from concept through commissioning.Prepare scope of work, cost estimates, and schedules.Oversee vendor selection, equipment procurement, and installation activities.Process & Energy OptimizationAnalyze system performance and implement improvements to reduce energy consumption and operating costs.Support sustainability initiatives and compliance with environmental standards.Safety & ComplianceEnsure all systems comply with local and federal codes, standards, and safety regulations.Participate in hazard analysis (PHA, HAZOP) and ensure safe design and operation of mechanical systems.Perform other related duties as assigned."
Note there are missing spaces after some punctuation; we can keep as is or add spaces for readability? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Changing punctuation might be considered altering detail? Probably okay to add spaces for readability but not change meaning. Safer to keep original text but it's hard to read. We could keep as is but add spaces after periods? Might be considered altering. I'd keep original but maybe add a space after each period for readability; but that's altering. However the instruction is about substantive information, not formatting. Adding spaces doesn't change substantive info. I'll add spaces for readability.
Now Benefits & Perks: list items:
"Time Off: We’ll give you paid holidays and paid vacation.Health, Dental, and Vision Insurance: Choose from a variety of options. We’ll cover a generous share of the cost. Plus, you can earn lower rates through our wellness program.401(k) With Company Match: Save for your retirement and we’ll match it dollar for dollar.Tuition Reimbursement: We’re all about lifting each other to the next level. When you’re ready to get the degree, we’ll pick up part of the tab.Training and Education: We offer dozens of options to boost your performance – both online and on-site nearby.Stock Purchase Program: Invest in Trex at a discounted price.Employee Discount Program: When you make the World’s No. 1 Decking Brand, you’ll probably want to enjoy the finished product yourself. We’ll give you a discount."
We need to preserve each benefit as list item.
Pay: "Base Salary Range: $130,000 – $150,000 annually The salary range provided serves as a general guideline for potential compensation for this position. It reflects the base salary and does not account for other benefits or additional compensation opportunities that may apply. This role is also eligible for further compensation through an annual/sales bonus, in addition to the base salary. At Trex, individual base salaries are determined based on various factors, including relevant skills, qualifications, experience, and geographic location. We are committed to maintaining pay equity and considering the internal equity of our existing team members when finalizing compensation offers."
We should include that as prose under Pay section.
Schedule: not present, so omit.
Now we need to remove boilerplate: EOE, E-Verify, etc. Also remove "Who We Are", "Everything We Do Is Grounded In Our Values..." etc. Also remove "CAREER ADVANCEMENT". Also remove "At Trex, you can take pride in craftsmanship..." etc. Also remove "We Are Looking For Candidates Who Embody Our Core Values" list. Also remove "At Trex, you’ll become part of a diverse yet unified team..." etc. Also remove "We nurture meaningful connections..." etc. Also remove "We believe that real effort should be rewarded." Actually that's part of Benefits intro; we can keep that as part of Benefits section preamble. But the Benefits section already includes that sentence? The posting says: "We believe that real effort should be rewarded. We take care of you as part of our Trex family so you can take care of yours. Here are some of the perks beyond the paycheck:" That's substantive? It's part of Benefits intro. We can keep as preamble before list.
Now we need to ensure we don't include duplicated lines. There's some duplication maybe.
Now produce HTML.
