We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Content: - Description: introductory paragraph about AWS Data Center Capex Finance, role, etc. This could be "About the role" or maybe "Overview". We'll treat as "About the role". - Key job responsibilities: list bullet points. - A day in the life: prose. - Basic Qualifications: list. - Preferred Qualifications: list. - Benefits: described: comprehensive benefits including health insurance..., 401(k) matching, paid time off, parental leave. Also mention sign-on payments and RSUs. Also link to benefits page. - Pay: base salary range listed for locations: USA, VA, Arlington - 66,900.00 - 117,100.00 USD annually; USA, WA, Seattle - 82,700.00 - 117,100.00 USD annually. Also mention sign-on payments and RSUs. - Schedule: not mentioned. So we should not include Schedule section. - Skills: maybe not explicit; but we could infer from qualifications but better not to create unless explicit. The posting does not have a separate "Skills" section. So we skip. - Requirements: maybe combine Basic and Preferred Qualifications? The instruction: use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have Responsibilities, Qualifications (maybe Basic and Preferred combined), Benefits, Pay. Also About the role. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. No Job ID. We must remove boilerplate: equal opportunity employer, accommodation link, etc. Also remove "Company - Amazon.com Services LLC Job ID: A10552313". Also remove "Learn more about our benefits at https://..." maybe keep as part of Benefits? The instruction: remove application instructions, cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines. The benefits link maybe okay to keep as part of Benefits? It's not boilerplate; it's a reference. Could keep. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Thus we need to include all bullet points from responsibilities, qualifications, etc. Let's extract. Introductory description (About the role): "Join the team building the infrastructure that powers the cloud! We support the ongoing infrastructure build-out of AWS, the worlds largest data center service provider and are looking for highly motivated, high energy people to join our growing and talented team. Do you have a passion for partnering with operations to drive strategic business decisions? Do you enjoy working across functions to develop recommendations based operational performance, regional dynamics, and macro-economic trends? Do you enjoy having a seat at the table for all matters that impact your business? If so, this is the role for you! AWS Data Center Capex Finance seeks a results-oriented Sr. Financial Analyst to partner with our construction teams to deliver new data center capacity on time and budget that meet our growing customer demand. The successful candidate will work closely with number of cross-functional stakeholders (construction, engineering, technical program managers, supply chain, data center operations, legal and other finance teams) to execute construction projects and cost savings or process improvement initiatives. Excellent independent judgment, and demonstrated leadership skills are a must. This role requires a self-starter who can leverage their analytical skills and attention to detail to ensure we do not constrain the business while maintaining strong financial controllership. This role regularly interacts with senior business partners, requiring strong interpersonal and communication skills." We'll put that in

  • . "A day in the life" prose: we can put under maybe "Responsibilities" or separate section? Could be its own section but we don't have a heading for that; we could include under About the role or Responsibilities. The instruction: use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we could put "A day in the life" as part of Responsibilities or maybe as a separate paragraph under About the role. I'd include it as a paragraph under About the role after the intro, or maybe under Responsibilities as additional detail. But better to keep it as its own paragraph under About the role (since it's descriptive). However we already used About the role for intro; we can add another

    after that. Basic Qualifications list: - 3+ years of tax, finance or a related analytical field experience - Bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, business, economics, or a related analytical field (e.g., engineering, math, computer science) - 3+ years of contributing to cross-functional initiatives that drive financial performance and strategy experience - 3+ years of dissecting financial data and identifying patterns that support business strategy experience Preferred Qualifications list: - 2+ years of identifying, leading, and executing opportunities to improve, automate, standardize or simplify finance or business tools and processes experience - Experience using financial models, KPIs, and data analysis to support business decisions - Experience with cube engine tools (e.g. TM1, Cognos or Essbase), SQL and Data warehouse - Experience working with stakeholders We could combine Basic and Preferred under a single "Qualifications" heading, with subheadings? But instruction only allows headings as listed; we could have

    Qualifications

    and then within that we could have

    Basic Qualifications:

      ... and

      Preferred Qualifications:

        ... That's acceptable. Benefits: The posting says: "Your Amazon package will include sign-on payments and restricted stock units (RSUs). Final compensation will be determined based on factors including experience, qualifications, and location. Amazon also offers comprehensive benefits including health insurance (medical, dental, vision, prescription, Basic Life & AD&D insurance and option for Supplemental life plans, EAP, Mental Health Support, Medical Advice Line, Flexible Spending Accounts, Adoption and Surrogacy Reimbursement coverage), 401(k) matching, paid time off, and parental leave. Learn more about our benefits at https://amazon.jobs/en/benefits." We need to include Benefits section with that info. Also note sign-on payments and RSUs could be part of Pay or Benefits; but we already have Pay section for salary range. We could include sign-on payments and RSUs under Benefits as part of compensation package. However the instruction: create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections only if posting actually states them. Benefits are stated. So we will include Benefits. Pay: base salary range for locations. Also mention sign-on payments and RSUs? The posting says base salary range listed below. Your Amazon package will include sign-on payments and restricted stock units (RSUs). Final compensation will be determined based on factors including experience, qualifications, and location. So we can include salary ranges and note that package includes sign-on payments and RSUs. Thus Pay section:

        The base salary range for this position is: USA, VA, Arlington - $66,900.00 - $117,100.00 USD annually; USA, WA, Seattle - $82,700.00 - $117,100.00 USD annually. The total package includes sign-on payments and restricted stock units (RSUs).

        We should keep the exact numbers as given: 66,900.00 - 117,100.00 USD annually etc. Use same formatting. Schedule: not present, so omit. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Thus:
