Key sections: - About the role: The initial paragraph about HDR, mission, etc. Could be considered "About the role". We'll include a

About the role

with prose summarizing the description (but must not invent or summarize away detail; we can keep the prose as is but maybe condense? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we need to keep the content, not remove details. However we can keep the original paragraphs as

. We must not add new content. So we can copy the relevant paragraphs. But we need to avoid duplication and boilerplate. The initial paragraph: "At HDR, our employee-owners are fully engaged in creating a welcoming environment..." That's about company culture. Could be part of About the role. Then later: "As part of HDR’s Building Engineering Services Group, you’ll help design the critical infrastructure..." etc. That's also about role. Then later: "HDR is seeking a Structural Engineering Intern for the Summer of 2027 in our Downtown Denver office." That's about the role. We'll combine into About the role section. Responsibilities: The bullet list under "Specific responsibilities will include:" with items: Learn how to read and interpret engineering Drawings and Specifications (Contract Documents); Participate in engineering design and analysis to the extent that your knowledge and completed coursework will enable; Help to produce structural models and drawings using Revit BIM software; Visit projects under construction to learn how structures are built and inspected; Review fabrication (shop) drawings from contractors for conformance to the structural engineering design drawings and specifications; Perform other duties as required. Also "All of your work will be performed under the direct supervision of a licensed structural engineer." Could be part of responsibilities. Requirements: Might be "Required Qualifications" list: Currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate Engineering program; Attention to detail; Possess strong problem-solving and communication skills; Basic Microsoft Office skills; An attitude and commitment to being an active participant of our employee-owned culture is a must. Qualifications: "Preferred Qualifications" list: 3.25 or higher overall GPA; Minimum of 3 years completed towards bachelor’s degree; Strong problem-solving and communication skills; Ability to work in our office in downtown Denver on a daily basis for a minimum commitment of 9 weeks; Attitude that demonstrates a desire to learn, eagerness to serve clients and project teams, enthusiasm for collaboration with others, and desire to contribute to the success of our team; Demonstrated knowledge of software packages such as REVIT and structural analysis programs such as Enercalc, Tedds, Risa, or similar programs; Previous experience in engineering or construction environments; Some completed coursework in structural engineering curriculum and/or fundamental coursework in statics, structural analysis, or mechanics of materials. Skills: Could be overlapping with qualifications; but we can separate: Skills: Strong problem-solving and communication skills; Basic Microsoft Office skills; Demonstrated knowledge of REVIT and structural analysis programs; Ability to work in office daily; etc. However we must not invent. We'll keep as per posting. Benefits: The posting mentions: "What We Believe" and "Our Commitment" includes benefits: "We provide a comprehensive benefits package that promotes employee ownership, employee health, performance, and success, which includes medical, dental, vision, short and long-term disability, life insurance, an employee assistance program, paid time away, parental leave, paid holidays, a retirement savings plan with employer match, employee referral bonus and tuition reimbursement." Also note: "(Stated benefits are for full-time regular positions. Temporary and part-time roles eligible for limited benefits.)" Since this is a temporary internship, but we still include benefits as stated. The instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. Benefits section has specific content, so include. Pay: The posting includes: "The expected compensation range for this position depends upon skills, experience, education and geographical location. (Stated benefits are for full-time regular positions. Temporary and part-time roles eligible for limited benefits.) Colorado: $23.00 - $28.00". That's specific pay range. So include Pay section. Schedule: The posting includes: "Schedule:Full-time". Also "Employee Status:Temporary". So schedule: Full-time. Also maybe mention minimum commitment of 9 weeks. That's schedule detail. So include Schedule section. We must not include sections like "About the role" if no content; but we have. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for "Structural Engineering Intern". Good. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; none present. We must remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. At end there is EEO statement; we must remove that. Also remove "Watch Our Story:' https://www.hdrinc.com/our-story'" maybe considered navigation? It's a link; we should remove as it's not substantive? It's a link to story; maybe considered boilerplate? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The link is not exactly those but could be considered navigation. Safer to remove. Also remove "Read further to learn how you could help make great things possible not only in your community, but around the world." That's maybe fluff but still substantive? It's generic; but we can keep as part of About the role? It's not specific detail; but it's not boilerplate. Might keep. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. We'll structure:

Maybe Skills section could be omitted because qualifications already cover skills. But we could still include Skills if we want distinct. However instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine Skills into Qualifications or Requirements. But we already have Requirements and Qualifications. Could we drop Skills? The posting didn't have a separate "Skills" heading; we are creating sections based on typical headings. The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says we can use those headings if we have content. It doesn't require us to use all; we can omit if no specific content. Since Skills content is overlapping with Requirements/Qualifications, we could omit Skills to avoid thin sections. But we need to ensure we preserve all substantive information; if we omit Skills heading, we still have the skill details in Requirements and Qualifications. That's fine. Benefits: include. Pay: include. Schedule: include. Now we need to write the About the role paragraph(s). Let's extract relevant paragraphs without boilerplate. From posting: "At HDR, our employee-owners are fully engaged in creating a welcoming environment where each of us is valued and respected, a place where everyone is empowered to bring their authentic selves and novel ideas to work every day. As we foster a culture of inclusion throughout our company and within our communities, we constantly ask ourselves: What is our impact on the world? We believe building engineering is more than systems and structures, it’s about powering progress and enabling innovation. As part of HDR’s Building Engineering Services Group, you’ll help design the critical infrastructure that supports the digital age and shapes the spaces where people work, connect, and thrive. From high-performance data centers driving the future of AI to dynamic commercial environments, your work will directly support technological advancement, sustainability, and human experience. We bring together mechanical, electrical, structural, and civil engineering experts to solve complex design challenges with precision, creativity, and collaboration. Whether you're optimizing energy efficiency, integrating resilient systems, or engineering the backbone of next-generation facilities, your contributions will help define the future of the built environment. This isn’t just a job, it’s a chance to lead innovation, engineer impact, and build a legacy of excellence." Then later: "Each and every role throughout our organization makes a difference in our ability to change the world for the better. Read further to learn how you could help make great things possible not only in your community, but around the world." Then: "HDR is seeking a Structural Engineering Intern for the Summer of 2027 in our Downtown Denver office. This is an excellent opportunity for a smart and motivated student to gain valuable structural engineering experience through a paid internship that may lead to full-time employment upon graduation." Then: "Our Work: Structural engineering touches our lives constantly, from the buildings we inhabit to the infrastructure we rely upon every day. Likewise, at HDR we provide creative solutions to complex and challenging problems that touch every aspect of our communities and our lives. Our projects provide clean drinking water to our communities, safely convey and treat water in our sewer systems, deliver power to our homes and businesses, provide critical facilities to all levels of government, improve the infrastructure of our national parks for generations to come, store and operate the technology we rely upon every day, and so much more. To accomplish this, we work in integrated, multi-discipline design teams comprised of structural, electrical, mechanical, civil, environmental, and fire/life safety engineers; architects; and professionals and scientists from many other diverse disciplines from the inception of projects through the completion of their construction. Our work is satisfying and rewarding and makes a difference in the communities that we serve." We could combine all that into About the role. Ensure we don't include duplicated lines. There's some duplication: "Our work is satisfying and rewarding and makes a difference in the communities that we serve." appears maybe twice? Actually appears once in that paragraph. Not duplicated. We'll create a few paragraphs. Now Responsibilities: list items. We need to keep the exact phrasing? Preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the exact phrases as given. Responsibilities list: - Learn how to read and interpret engineering Drawings and Specifications (Contract Documents) - Participate in engineering design and analysis to the extent that your knowledge and completed coursework will enable - Help to produce structural models and drawings using Revit BIM software - Visit projects under construction to learn how structures are built and inspected - Review fabrication (shop) drawings from contractors for conformance to the structural engineering design drawings and specifications - Perform other
