We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The description includes a paragraph about Northrop Grumman, then Job Description paragraph. We need to use
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have: - About the role: The description includes a paragraph about the role: "As a Supply Chain Subcontracts Specialist – Level 4 or 5, you'll be a linchpin..." That's about the role. Also earlier description about company. Could be "About the role" section. - Responsibilities: list of duties. - Requirements: Basic Qualifications for Level 4 and Level 5. Could combine as Requirements. - Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications. - Skills: maybe not explicit separate; but we have proficiency with Microsoft Office, etc. Could be part of Requirements. But we can include Skills if we have explicit list: "Proficiency with Microsoft Office including Word, PowerPoint, and Excel". That's a skill. Also maybe "Experience with Subcontracts, Procurement, Contracts". Might be better to put under Requirements. - Benefits: The posting mentions benefits: "Northrop Grumman provides a variety of benefits including health insurance coverage, life and disability insurance, savings plan, Company paid holidays and paid time off (PTO) for vacation and/or personal business." Also mentions overtime, shift differential, discretionary bonus, annual bonuses, long term incentives for VP/Director. So we have benefits content. - Pay: Salary ranges given: Primary Level Salary Range: $112,200 - $176,300; Secondary Level Salary Range: $139,700 - $219,500. Also note about base salary factors. So we have Pay. - Schedule: Not mentioned besides travel 10% of time, remote not available. No explicit schedule like full-time, etc. Could we infer? The posting says "Travel: Yes, 10% of the Time". That's not schedule. No mention of work hours. So we should not create Schedule section if no specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Do not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO, etc. Also remove relocation assistance, clearance, travel? Travel is mentioned but we could include maybe under a note? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Travel is not boilerplate; it's a detail. Should we include it? Possibly under a short paragraph maybe under About the role or Responsibilities? Not a section. Could include as a note in a paragraph. But we need to preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to include travel detail somewhere. Could add a
under About the role or after responsibilities. Since no specific section for travel, we can include it in a paragraph maybe under "About the role" or a separate paragraph before sections. The instruction: Output ONLY the HTML fragment. We can have multiple
and
sections. We'll include an introductory paragraph about the company and role, then sections. We must not create sections with filler text. Ensure each heading has substantive content. Let's structure:
