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. Must remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Key sections: - About the company? The first paragraph about The Trade Desk is company description. Could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is typical heading for role description. The posting includes "The Team", "The Role". We can map to headings: maybe "About the team" or "About the role". The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose appropriate headings based on content. We have: - The Team: description of Custom Solutions team. - The Role: description of Staff Product Manager role, responsibilities. - What you will be doing: list of responsibilities (bullet-like sentences). Could be under Responsibilities. - What you bring to the table: list of qualifications/requirements/skills. - Benefits: paragraph about benefits, stock, etc. - Pay: base salary range $137,300—$251,800 USD. - Schedule? Not mentioned. So we should not include Schedule section. - Qualifications: maybe combine with Requirements. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Must remove those lines. Also remove "The Trade Desk does not accept unsolicited resumes..." etc. Also remove "[LA JOBS ONLY]" etc. Also remove accommodation request lines? Those are maybe not boilerplate but could be considered part of process; but they are not substantive about role. Probably remove as they are instructions for accommodation. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Accommodation request is not exactly application instructions but could be considered part of process; but it's not substantive about role. Safer to remove. We must preserve all substantive information: company description, team description, role description, responsibilities, qualifications, benefits, pay. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll structure:

About the Team

maybe? But instruction examples: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Could use About the role for role description, Responsibilities for what you will be doing, Requirements/Qualifications/Skills for what you bring, Benefits, Pay. We could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But better to follow examples: maybe have Requirements and Qualifications separate if content fits. The "What you bring to the table" includes both qualifications and skills. Could split: Requirements (education, experience) and Skills (specific abilities). But we can just put all under Qualifications or Skills. However instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine into one section "Qualifications and Skills". But they gave examples separate; we can still include both if we have content. But to avoid thin sections, we could have one "Qualifications" that includes education, experience, skills. Let's decide: Use sections: - About the role (maybe includes team and role description) - Responsibilities - Qualifications (includes education, experience, skills) - Benefits - Pay We need to ensure we don't create empty sections. Now extract content. Company description: "The Trade Desk is a global technology company and the world’s leading independent platform for digital advertising, with over 3,000 employees across more than 30 offices. Our technology helps advertisers reach the right audiences across the open internet — from streaming TV and podcasts to mobile apps, news, and more. Advertising powers the content people love. By making it more transparent, effective, and responsible, we help support trusted journalism, quality entertainment, and creators worldwide. The world’s brands and agencies rely on us to reach their customers and grow their businesses responsibly. The scale of our platform brings unique technical challenges — from processing massive datasets in real time to building systems that operate reliably on a global scale. When you work here, your impact is worldwide. We welcome diverse perspectives, encourage curiosity, and build teams that learn from one another. If you’re driven to solve meaningful challenges, we’d love to meet you." This is substantive; could be placed under "About the role" or maybe a separate "About the company". But instruction only gave examples; we can still use About the role to include company + team + role? Might be too much. But we can put company description under About the role heading. The Team: "The Custom Solutions team designs and delivers tailored solutions for The Trade Desk's most strategic accounts: custom capabilities with high commercial demand that extend beyond the core platform. Working closely with Solutions Consulting, Solutions Engineering, and commercial teams, we identify where custom development can create the most client value and take those solutions from zero to one, spanning tailored front-end experiences, custom algorithms, measurement solutions, and AI-powered workflows. In doing so, we extend The Trade Desk platform to deliver incremental value that drives revenue growth and deepens client partnerships." The Role: "As a Staff Product Manager on the Custom Solutions team, you will own strategic initiatives end-to-end: working directly with our most important clients to understand their needs, shaping the right solution, evaluating what's worth building, delivering it with engineering and design, and driving the go-to-market strategy behind it. This is a client-facing role: you'll work closely with clients and account teams throughout, and you'll own each solution from first conversation to commercial impact. It's a rare opportunity for a builder: true 0-to-1 product work inside the world's leading independent demand-side platform, direct client exposure, modern AI-first ways of working, and results you can measure in client outcomes and revenue." We could combine The Team and The Role under About the role. Now Responsibilities: "What you will be doing:" then bullet points: - Own initiatives end-to-end. Take strategic initiatives from client need through ideation, evaluation, build, client release, and go-to-market. This is the complete product lifecycle, without an established playbook. - Work directly with clients. Partner with strategic clients and account teams as a trusted product advisor, deeply understanding their needs and expectations and delivering solutions that drive revenue growth and deepen partnerships. - Evaluate before you build. Pressure-test ideas against commercial demand, feasibility, and data availability. Make prioritization calls that balance client impact, revenue, and engineering cost, with a clear rationale behind each one. - Prototype to align. Build prototypes to validate concepts with clients and align engineering before committing development resources. - Use AI to move faster. Apply AI Tools (e.g. Claude) daily across research, requirements, analysis, and delivery, raising the pace and quality bar of your PM work. - Build with data. We build custom algorithms often. Partner with engineering and data science to shape them, and judge whether a model is actually delivering for the client. - Craft front-end experiences. Work with design and engineering to define intuitive, high-quality user experiences, sweating the details of what clients see and touch. - Drive the go-to-market. Define positioning and packaging, lead launch plans, enable Solutions Consulting and commercial teams to sell what you build, and measure adoption and impact after release. We need to put each as
  • inside
      . Now Qualifications: "What you bring to the table:" list: - Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience - 7-10 years of product management experience, ideally in advertising technology or an adjacent platform business, with a proven track record of launching complex products - Proven 0-to-1 experience: you've taken products or major features from concept to launch, navigating ambiguity and validating demand along the way - Client-facing experience: building consultative relationships and communicating credibly with senior and C-level client stakeholders - Strong data fluency: comfortable with data analysis and ML/algorithmic concepts, and able to evaluate whether a model is delivering results - Hands-on AI experience: you’ve built AI-powered solutions or features - Experience shipping front-end, user-facing experiences with strong UX instincts - Strong understanding of the programmatic advertising landscape: the players, the economics, and the latest industry trends - Experience crafting Product Requirements Documentation and driving cross-functional execution in a matrixed environment - Desire to make a cultural impact and grow as an internal leader We can put these as
    • under
        inside Qualifications section. Now Benefits: paragraph: "Plus, expected benefits for this role include comprehensive healthcare (medical, dental, and vision) with premiums paid in full for employees and dependents, retirement benefits such as a 401k plan and company match, short and long-term disability coverage, basic life insurance, well-being benefits, reimbursement for certain tuition expenses, parental leave, sick time of 1 hour per 30 hours worked, vacation time for full-time employees up to 120 hours thru the first year and 160 hours thereafter, and around 13 paid holidays per year. Employees can also purchase The Trade Desk stock at a discount through The Trade Desk’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The Trade Desk also offers a competitive benefits package." Also earlier: "All employees may be eligible to become The Trade Desk shareholders through eligibility for stock-based compensation grants, which are awarded to employees based on company and individual performance. The Trade Desk also offers other compensation depending on the role such as variable compensation-based incentives and commissions." We could include that under Benefits or maybe under Pay? But Pay is base salary range. Benefits section can include healthcare, retirement, stock purchase, etc. Also mention variable compensation-based incentives and commissions maybe under Pay? But Pay is base salary range; variable compensation is separate but could be part of compensation. However instruction says only create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections if posting actually states them. It does state base salary range and benefits. Variable compensation is also mentioned but could be part of Pay? Might be better to include under Benefits as "variable compensation-based incentives and commissions". Or we could add a separate "Compensation" but not in examples. We'll include variable compensation in Benefits. Now Pay: "The base salary range for this role is $137,300—$251,800 USD". Also earlier: "In accordance with various US state laws, the range provided is the Trade Desk's reasonable estimate of the base compensation for this role. The actual amount may differ based on non-discriminatory factors such as experience, knowledge, skills, and location." That's part of Pay description. We'll include that as a

        under Pay. Now Schedule: not mentioned, so omit. Now we need to remove boilerplate: The Trade Desk does not accept unsolicited resumes..., equal opportunity employer, LA JOBS ONLY, SF JOBS ONLY, accommodation request lines, etc. Also remove "Note: Interns are not eligible..." that's about interns, not relevant to role; could be considered boilerplate? It's about eligibility for interns; not substantive for this role (which is Staff Product Manager). Likely remove. Also remove "Click here to learn more." (link). Remove. Now produce HTML. We'll start with

        About the role

        then

        containing company description + team + role description? Might be long but okay. Better to split: maybe

        About the team

        and

        The role

        but instruction examples didn't list those; but we can still use headings as long as they are

        . The instruction says use

        for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It gives examples but not exclusive list. So we can use other headings as long as they are

        . But to be safe, we can
