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 job posting. First, remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we need to strip out things like "Alcon is an Equal Opportunity Employer..." and the accommodation request, etc. Also "ATTENTION: Current Alcon Employee/Contingent Worker..." and "Find Jobs for Employees..." etc. Also "Alcon Careers See your impact at alcon.com/careers". Also "Compensation And Benefits" maybe we keep as Benefits? Actually they have a Benefits section later. We'll need to extract substantive content. Let's extract sections: - About the role / overview: The first paragraph: "At Alcon, we're passionate about enhancing sight and helping people see brilliantly. With more than 25,000 associates, we innovate fearlessly, champion progress, and act swiftly to impact global eye health. We foster an inclusive culture, recognizing your contributions and offering opportunities to grow your career like never before. Together, we make a difference in the lives of our patients and customers. Are you ready to join us? Alcon is looking to hire a Sr. Principal, Medical Science Liaison to join our Research & Development function, a team that innovates boldly and delivers new products and services to help revolutionize the eye care industry, advance optimal patient outcomes and help people see brilliantly. The Sr. Principal, Medical Science Liaison (Science/Tech/Engineering Path) is primarily responsible for presenting scientific and clinical information on Alcon products and gathering insights to influence company strategies. You will drive problem-solving and innovation through scientific principles. This role is remote US with 75% travel and handle the VitRet portfolio. Preferred location would be Illinois, Maryland, New York, Pennsylvania" That's about the role. - Responsibilities: The bullet list after "A typical day will include:" includes many items. We'll need to list them as
  • . Let's extract each responsibility line: "Develop and maintain peer-to-peer relationships with medical experts and key opinion leaders." "Support the development and adoption of Alcon products through evidence-based scientific exchange and seek external insights." "Provide general medical information in therapeutic areas to practitioners and Alcon associates and respond to unsolicited requests for medical information." "Engage in scientific discussions around Alcon product data." "Implement medical projects and navigate investigator trials from inception to publication." "Maintain thorough knowledge of Alcon products and current medical/scientific research." "Work with Med Info and Med Safety to resolve escalated product complaints and medical safety issues, and participate in adverse event reporting and safety responsibilities monitoring." "Direct human clinical trials, phases III and IV for company products under development, monitor adherence to protocols, and determine study completion." "Provide reporting information for reports submitted to regulatory agencies." "Serve as medical consultant to marketing, commercial or research project teams and government regulatory agencies, and act as consultant/liaison with other corporations under licensing agreements." "Sign off on product safety reviews." "Interface effectively with all other Medical Affairs functions and departments, including Commercial, Quality Assurance, Research and Development, Regulatory Affairs, Market Access, etc." "Work with integrity and compliance, observing laws, industry standards, and company policies." "All associates must adhere to GxP regulations by strictly following Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), maintaining accurate and complete documentation, ensuring rigorous quality control, and completing all required training." "Associates are responsible for meeting their individual job requirements and contributing to the overall compliance of the organization. Compliance with regulatory requirements and a commitment to continuous improvement are essential to our operations ." We may combine some but keep as separate li. - Requirements / Qualifications: The "What you’ll bring to Alcon:" section includes: "Bachelor’s Degree or Equivalent years of directly related experience (or high school+15 yrs; Assoc.+11 yrs; M.S.+4 yrs; PhD+3 yrs)" "The ability to fluently read, write, understand and communicate in English" "7 Years of Relevant Experience" Also maybe "HOW YOU CAN THRIVE:" is more about growth opportunities, not a requirement. - Skills: Not explicitly listed separate; maybe we can infer from responsibilities but not needed. - Benefits: The posting mentions: "Alcon provides a robust benefits package including health, life, retirement, flexible time off and much more." Also later: "Alcon’s Total Rewards programs are designed to align incentives with business objectives, support our values, and deliver long‑term value. Our compensation approach includes a combination of fixed and variable pay, with short‑term and long‑term incentive opportunities for eligible roles. Our benefits offerings are designed to support associates and their families across key life events, including programs that promote health and well‑being, provide financial security, and support retirement planning." Thus we have benefits info. - Pay: There's a specific Pay Range: "Pay Range 152,150.00 - 196,900.00 Pay Frequency Annual". So we should include Pay section. - Schedule: Not explicitly given besides remote US with 75% travel. That's more about location/travel, not schedule. No explicit schedule like full-time, part-time, shift. So we should not create Schedule section unless there is real content. The posting does not state schedule like "Full-time" etc. So we omit Schedule. - Also maybe "Qualifications" could be separate from Requirements. But we can combine as Requirements/Qualifications. The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We can choose to include Requirements and Qualifications separately if there is distinct content. However the posting lumps education/experience/language under "What you’ll bring to Alcon:" which could be considered Requirements. There's no separate Skills list. So we could have Requirements (including education, experience, language). Qualifications maybe not needed. But we could still include Qualifications heading with same content? Better to avoid duplication. We'll include Requirements heading with the bullet list. - Benefits heading: include bullet list of benefits: health, life, retirement, flexible time off, etc. Also mention Total Rewards, fixed/variable pay, short/long term incentives, programs promoting health/well-being, financial security, retirement planning. We'll capture as bullet list. - Pay heading: include the pay range and frequency. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll produce something like:

    We need to ensure we preserve all substantive information. Did we miss any? Let's double-check. From the posting: - "At Alcon, we're passionate about enhancing sight and helping people see brilliantly..." etc. We captured that. - "Alcon is looking to hire a Sr. Principal, Medical Science Liaison to join our Research & Development function, a team that innovates boldly and delivers new products and services to help revolutionize the eye care industry, advance optimal patient outcomes and help people see brilliantly." Included. - "The Sr. Principal, Medical Science Liaison (Science/Tech/Engineering Path) is primarily responsible for presenting scientific and clinical information on Alcon products and gathering insights to influence company strategies. You will drive problem-solving and innovation through scientific principles." Included. - "This role is remote US with 75% travel and handle the VitRet portfolio. Preferred location would be Illinois, Maryland, New York, Pennsylvania" Included. - Responsibilities list we captured. - "What you’ll bring to Alcon:" we captured. - "HOW YOU CAN THRIVE: See your career like never before with focused growth and development opportunities Join Alcon’s mission to provide outstanding, innovative products and solutions to improve sight, improve lives, and grow your career!" This is more about growth opportunities; could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section like "Opportunities". But not in the prescribed headings. Could be omitted as it's not a standard heading; but we might incorporate into About the role paragraph. However we should not lose substantive info. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include that content somewhere. It could be placed under About the role as additional prose. Let's add a sentence after the initial paragraph. - "Alcon provides a robust benefits package including health, life, retirement, flexible time off and much more." Already captured in Benefits. - "Alcon Careers See your impact at alcon.com/careers" is boilerplate navigation; we can drop. - "ATTENTION: Current Alcon Employee/Contingent Worker..." drop. - "Compensation And Benefits Alcon’s Total Rewards programs..." we captured benefits and pay. - "Our compensation approach includes a combination of fixed and variable pay, with short‑term and long‑term incentive opportunities for eligible roles." Already in Benefits bullet. - "Our benefits offerings are designed to support associates and their families across key life events, including programs that promote health and well‑being, provide financial security, and support retirement planning." Already in Benefits bullet. - "The salary range posted represents the anticipated hiring range for this role. Actual compensation may vary based on factors such as experience, skills, location, and internal equity, and may fall outside the posted range." This is substantive about pay; we should include in Pay section maybe as a note. - Pay Frequency Annual we captured. - EEO etc we drop. - Accommodation request drop. Thus we need to ensure we include the note about actual compensation may vary. Let's craft Pay section:

    Pay

    Pay Range: $152,150.00 - $196,900.00 per year. Actual compensation may vary based on experience, skills, location, and internal equity, and may fall outside the posted range.

    Now ensure we didn't miss any responsibilities: The list after "A typical day will include:" includes many lines; we captured them. Also there is a line "Work with integrity and compliance, observing laws, industry standards, and company policies." included. Also "All associates must adhere to GxP regulations..." included. Also "Associates are responsible for meeting their individual job requirements and contributing to the overall compliance of the organization. Compliance with regulatory requirements and a commitment to continuous improvement are essential to our operations ." included. Check for duplicate lines: we have some similar lines about compliance; we can keep both as separate li. Now ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like "Alcon is an Equal Opportunity Employer..." etc. Now produce final HTML. We need to wrap each section appropriately. Use

    for headings. Use

    for prose. Use

    • for lists. We'll output:

      About the role
