- This position is contingent upon obtaining final clearances and program access within reasonable period.
- Basic Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree with 12 years experience or Master’s with 10 years or PhD with 8 years. Requires active US Gov Top-Secret clearance at time of application, current and within scope (maybe "within scope2 years"? seems typo). 2 years of experience in Project Management roles such as CAM, IPT Lead, Project/Program Manager. 2 years of leading engineering teams through development/design programs. 1 year of experience using EVMS on programs.

We need sections: About the role (description), Responsibilities (the "In This Job, You Will" list), Requirements (basic qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe preferred?), Skills (maybe specific skills like EVMS, project management, etc), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, application period, etc.
We must not include placeholder text.
We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
We have:
- About the role: description paragraph(s) about Northrop Grumman, culture, position overview, location, onsite, reporting, authority, schedule (9/80). Could be in About the role.
- Responsibilities: the list of duties under "In This Job, You Will". That's a clear list.
- Requirements: Basic Qualifications (degree+experience, clearance, years of PM experience, leading engineering teams, EVMS experience, spacecraft lifecycle experience). Could be Requirements.
- Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications (4 years PM, full lifecycle, expert EVMS, control account management ≥$25M, EAC management, subcontracts/supplier management, active TS/SCI or TS clearance). Could be Qualifications.
- Skills: maybe we could extract specific skills like Earned Value Management System, project management, scope management, staffing plans, supply chain coordination, manufacturing & ops coordination, integration & test, risk management, etc. But we might not need a separate Skills section if we already covered in Requirements/Qualifications. The instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine Skills into Requirements/Qualifications or omit Skills if not distinct.
- Benefits: we have relocation assistance may be available, health insurance, life and disability insurance, savings plan, company paid holidays, paid time off (PTO). Also maybe discretionary bonus, annual bonuses, long term incentives (though those are more compensation). Benefits section should include those.
- Pay: salary range $177,000 - $265,600, plus notes about overtime, shift differential, discretionary bonus, annual bonuses, long term incentives for VP/Director. That's specific.
- Schedule: 9/80 schedule, every other Friday off. Also note 100% onsite, cannot telecommute. Could be Schedule.
We need to ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include relocation assistance note somewhere (maybe Benefits). Also note about clearance required for start: Yes, clearance type Top Secret. That is part of Requirements (clearance). Also note travel: No (maybe not needed but could be in About the role or Schedule? Travel is not a section; we could include in About the role as a note. But we should not create a section for travel unless we have a heading Travel (not allowed). So we can include that info in About the role paragraph.
We must not include cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So remove EEO paragraph, application period, etc.
Now produce HTML fragment with headings for each section.
