Structural Engineer - Bridge Inspection Team Leader

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 description.
We have sections: "Your Impact" (responsibilities), "Who You Are" (required qualifications, also includes preferred qualifications), "WSP Benefits", "Compensation" (Pay). Also "About WSP" maybe not needed as it's generic but could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is not present; we have "This Opportunity" intro. Could treat as "About the role" maybe but they said do not repeat job title as heading; we can include a short paragraph about role. But we need to decide sections.
We must include only sections with real content. So we can have:
- About the role
with paragraph summarizing the opportunity (the first paragraph after "Job Description This Opportunity ...").
- Responsibilities
with list from "Your Impact" bullet-like sentences.
- Requirements
maybe combine Required Qualifications and some other mandatory items (like physically capable, driver's license, etc.) Could also have Qualifications
but they said use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide.
We have Required Qualifications list; Preferred Qualifications list; also skills like interpersonal, communication, technical writing, Microsoft Office, etc.
We could structure:
- Requirements
(Required Qualifications + mandatory items like PE license, NCBI, etc.)
- Preferred Qualifications
(optional)
- Skills
(interpersonal, communication, technical writing, Microsoft Office, etc.) but maybe these are already in requirements.
Better to follow instruction: Use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can include:
- About the role (intro)
- Responsibilities (Your Impact)
- Requirements (Required Qualifications + mandatory items like PE license, driver's license, etc.)
- Qualifications (maybe Preferred Qualifications? Or we could treat Required as Requirements and Preferred as Qualifications? Actually they differentiate Requirements vs Qualifications; but we can put Required under Requirements and Preferred under Qualifications.
- Skills (interpersonal, communication, technical writing, Microsoft Office, etc.)
- Benefits (WSP Benefits)
- Pay (Compensation)
- Schedule (maybe not present; there is mention of "Ability to work schedules conducive to project-specific requirements that may extend beyond the typical workweek." and "Occasional travel, including potential overnight stays". Not a specific schedule. So we should not create Schedule section because no specific schedule content.
Thus we omit Schedule.
Now we need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Let's extract content.
First, intro paragraph: "Job Description This Opportunity WSP is seeking a Structural Engineer - Bridge Inspection Team Leader to join our Bridge & Infrastructure Inspection Team! This role can be based out of any WSP office in New Jersey such as Newark-NJ, Lawrenceville-NJ, Morristown-NJ, and more.

We need to remove "Job Description This Opportunity" maybe treat as part of paragraph. We'll keep the substance.
Now Responsibilities: list from "Your Impact". Let's extract each sentence as list item.
Your Impact sentences:
- Work with our Bridge & Infrastructure Inspection Team on a variety of inspection related projects.
- Work as a Team Leader on Bridge, Tunnel & Ancillary Inspections.
- Perform professional structural engineering work and inspections.
- Assist in the preparation of Bridge & Tunnel Load Ratings.

Now Skills: maybe we can extract interpersonal, communication, technical writing, Microsoft Office etc. But many are already in Requirements. To avoid duplication, we could put those under Skills and keep Requirements focused on education, certifications, experience, license. However instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we can duplicate? Better not duplicate. We'll split: Requirements: education, certifications, experience, license, physical capability, driver's license, etc. Skills: interpersonal/communication, technical writing, Microsoft Office, etc. But we need to ensure we don't lose any.
Let's define:

But note some of these overlap with Requirements (like ability to work schedules, travel). We already put those under Skills; maybe better to keep them under Requirements as they are mandatory. However we already have them under Skills. To avoid duplication, we could move schedule/travel to Requirements as they are mandatory. But we already have them under Skills; we need to decide.
Given the instruction to prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones, maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications and Skills into one section? But they ask to use headings for those categories if content exists. We have content for each, so we can include all
