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. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc as headings; can fold minor metadata into short

or drop it. Remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Must preserve all substantive information. We need to parse the posting. Key sections: - Job Summary: description of role. Could be "About the role" heading. - Essential Functions: list of duties. Could be "Responsibilities". - Minimum Qualifications: list. Could be "Requirements" or "Qualifications". The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which to use. Probably "Requirements" for minimum qualifications, "Preferred Qualifications" maybe also under Qualifications? Or separate? But we should not create thin sections. Could combine Minimum and Preferred under Qualifications? But they ask to use headings exactly those words. We can include multiple sections if they have content. We have Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities: could be "Skills". Environmental Conditions/Physical Demands: maybe part of Requirements? Could be its own but not in list; maybe we can incorporate into Requirements or Skills? Not in allowed headings list. Could omit? But we must preserve ALL substantive information. However we cannot create headings not in list. The instruction: "use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." The e.g. suggests those are examples, not exclusive? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect those headings only. So we must map content to those headings. Environmental Conditions/Physical Demands could go under Requirements or maybe Skills? Probably under Requirements (physical demands). We'll include that info in a

or

    under Requirements. Pay: we have salary range. So include Pay section. Schedule: we have Work Arrangement: 06-Onsite 4/5 Days, Travel Requirements: Up to 25%, maybe also schedule info. So we can include Schedule section with those details. Benefits: we have a long list of benefits. So include Benefits section. Now we need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove things like "Click here for more information about work arrangements at Amtrak." and "Learn More About Our Benefits Offerings Here." Also remove "Requisition ID:167112", "Work Arrangement:06-Onsite 4/5 Days", "Relocation Offered:No", "Travel Requirements:Up to 25%" maybe we keep travel requirements under Schedule. But we should not put Job ID as heading; we can fold minor metadata into short

    or drop it. Probably drop Requisition ID. We must preserve ALL substantive information: so we need to keep the salary range, benefits list, work arrangement, travel requirements, etc. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". In benefits list we have many items; we should keep them as list items. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft:

    We need to ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like EEO etc. We removed those. Check for any duplicated lines: we have not repeated. Check for any "commensurate with experience" appears in Pay section: we have that phrase "that is commensurate with the level of the position." That's not a placeholder; it's actual description. It's okay. Check for any "N/A", "TBD", "varies": none. Check for any "Learn More About Our Benefits Offerings Here." removed. Check for "Click here for more information about work arrangements at Amtrak." removed. Check for "Requisition ID:167112" removed. Check for "Note that any education requirement listed above may be deemed satisfied if you have an equivalent combination of education, training and experience." This is a note; we might want to keep it? It's substantive but maybe minor. Could be folded into Requirements as a note. But we can drop as minor metadata? The
