Also remove "About Philips", "Philips Transparency Details", "Additional Information", etc unless they contain relevant content (like pay, benefits). We need to preserve all substantive information.
We need to format lists with - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits.
We need to decide which content is list-like.
Responsibilities: bullet list of duties: "Develop, update, and maintain labeling including instructions for use, online help files, device labeling, and packaging for medical devices.", "Provide labeling support for assigned projects and interface with business groups as needed to resolve labeling concerns.", "Translate complex engineering, clinical, and regulatory inputs into clear, concise, user-focused content.", "Lead labeling strategy for new product development and post-market changes."
Requirements/Qualifications: maybe bullet list: "2+ years of experience with a Bachelor’s degree in Technical Writing or similar, OR no prior experience required with a Master’s degree.", "Attention to detail, analytical thinking, problem solving, proficiency with Adobe Creative Suite.", "Experience with using AI and/or developing or managing AI agents for technical writing related tasks (preferred).", "Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in English, Writing, Engineering or equivalent.", "Ability to perform minimum Physical, Cognitive and Environmental job requirements (with or without accommodation).", "Ability to cultivate effective relationships with internal/external partners and provide influence over projects and peer groups, demonstrating full understanding of engineering specialization within the medical devices sector."
Skills: maybe bullet list: "Attention to detail", "Analytical thinking", "Problem solving", "Proficiency with Adobe Creative Suite", "Experience with using AI and/or developing or managing AI agents for technical writing related tasks (preferred)". But we already have some overlapping with requirements; we could combine.
Better to have sections: About the role (paragraph), Responsibilities (ul), Requirements (ul), Skills (ul), Benefits (ul), Pay (p), Schedule (p). Ensure we don't repeat content.
We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Let's craft.
First, About the role: combine the first two sentences.
Paragraph:
As the Sr. Technical Writer within the Sleep & Respiratory Care portfolio, you will create/update US and global instructions for use and labeling for regulated medical device products. This position operates as a senior-level individual contributor by managing labeling projects, supporting audits and regulatory submissions, and ensuring labeling is compliant and effective.
Responsibilities: Responsibilities
- Develop, update, and maintain labeling including instructions for use, online help files, device labeling, and packaging for medical devices.
- Provide labeling support for assigned projects and interface with business groups as needed to resolve labeling concerns.
- Translate complex engineering, clinical, and regulatory inputs into clear, concise, user-focused content.
- Lead labeling strategy for new product development and post-market changes.
Requirements: maybe "Qualifications". Use heading Qualifications
. List bullet points.
We need to include: "2+ years of experience with a Bachelor’s degree in areas such as Technical Writing or similar, OR no prior experience required with a Master’s degree." "Attention to detail, analytical thinking, problem solving and proficiency with Adobe Creative Suite." "Experience with using AI and/or developing or managing AI agents for technical writing related tasks, preferred." "Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in English, Writing, Engineering or equivalent." "Ability to successfully perform the following minimum Physical, Cognitive and Environmental job requirements with or without accommodation for this position." "Ability to cultivate effective relationships with internal/external partners and provide influence over projects and peer groups, demonstrating full understanding of engineering specialization within the medical devices sector."
Make each bullet.
Skills: maybe we can combine with qualifications but we need a Skills section if there is distinct content. The qualifications already list skills; but we could still have Skills section highlighting "Attention to detail, analytical thinking, problem solving, proficiency with Adobe Creative Suite, experience with AI/AI agents for technical writing." However to avoid duplication, we could omit Skills section if it's redundant. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could combine qualifications and skills into one section called "Qualifications & Skills". But headings must be from list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose Qualifications and maybe not Skills if content overlaps. But we need to include Skills only if there is real specific content not already covered. The qualifications already mention skills; but we could still have Skills section with those items. However that would duplicate. Better to have Qualifications section covering both experience/education and skills. So we will not add Skills.
Benefits: Benefits
- Generous PTO
- 401k (up to 7% match)
- HSA (with company contribution)
- Stock purchase plan
- Education reimbursement
- Much more (comprehensive Philips Total Rewards benefits program)
But we need to preserve all substantive information: "Employees are eligible to participate in our comprehensive Philips Total Rewards benefits program, which includes a generous PTO, 401k (up to 7% match), HSA (with company contribution), stock purchase plan, education reimbursement and much more." So we can put that as a paragraph or list. Use list for clarity.
Pay: Pay
The pay range for this position in New Kensington, PA is $90,000 to $143,000. The actual base pay offered may vary within the posted ranges depending on multiple factors including job-related knowledge/skills, experience, business needs, geographical location, and internal equity. In addition, other compensation, such as an annual incentive bonus, sales commission or long-term incentives may be offered. At Philips, it is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top end of the range for their role and compensation decisions are dependent upon the facts and circumstances of each case.
We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
Schedule: Schedule
How We Work Together: We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office-based teams, this means working in-person at least 3 days per week. Onsite roles require full-time presence in the company’s facilities. Field roles are most effectively done outside of the company’s main facilities, generally at the customers’ or suppliers’ locations. This is an office role.
We could shorten but preserve all substantive info.
We need to remove duplicated lines, boilerplate like "About Philips", "Learn more about our business", etc. Also remove "Philips Transparency Details" heading but we kept the pay info. Remove "Additional Information", "US work authorization", etc unless they are substantive? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "US work authorization is a precondition of employment..." is likely legal/EEO? It's a requirement but maybe considered legal. However it's substantive about eligibility. Should we keep? The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. This is about work authorization, not EEO. Might be considered legal but it's a requirement. I'd keep it maybe under Requirements? But it's about visa sponsorship. Could be considered a requirement. However the instruction says remove boilerplate, but this is a specific requirement: "US work authorization is a precondition of employment. The company will not consider candidates who require sponsorship for a work-authorized visa, now or in the future." That's substantive. Should we keep? Probably yes, as it's a requirement. But we already have a Qualifications section; we could add a bullet: "Must have US work authorization; no sponsorship for work-authorized visa." However the instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate; this is not EEO but immigration. I'd keep.
Also "Company relocation benefits will not be provided for this position." That's substantive about benefits? Could be under Benefits as a note: "No relocation benefits provided." Might be worth including.
"For this position, you must reside in or within commuting distance to New Kensington, PA." That's a requirement about location.
"#ConnectedCare" is a tag, ignore.
"This requisition is expected to stay active for 45 days but may close earlier if a successful candidate is selected or business necessity dictates. Interested candidates are encouraged to apply as soon as possible to ensure consideration." That's application instructions; remove.
"Philips is an Equal Employment and Opportunity Employer including Disability/Vets and maintains a drug-free workplace." That's EEO boilerplate; remove.
Thus we need to incorporate US work authorization, relocation, residency requirement into appropriate sections (maybe Qualifications or Requirements). Let's add them to Qualifications.
Now we need to ensure we don't repeat content.
