We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We have:
- About The Role: we have a paragraph describing role. Use
About the Role
then...
. - Responsibilities: we have "Key Responsibilities" with bullet points. UseResponsibilities
then- each bullet.
- Requirements: we have "Key Qualifications" which includes required qualifications. Could be Requirements section. Also there are "Key Nice-to-Haves" maybe Skills? But we need to decide.
We have "Key Qualifications" list: High School Diploma or GED required. Minimum 3 years of field survey, utility inspection, or directly related field experience. Demonstrated experience working within T&D utility environments... Strong proficiency with field data collection applications... Proficient in field photography techniques... Working proficiency with handheld and ground-based LiDAR equipment. Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite... Valid driver's license... Ability to travel frequently... Strong communication skills... Committed to field safety, quality, and professional conduct.
We can put these under Requirements.
We also have "Key Nice-to-Haves": Associate degree or technical training... Experience supporting QC... Solid working knowledge of hammer sounding... Ability to identify and resolve data quality issues... Self-directed... Technically strong... Willingness and ability to guide less experienced technicians.
These could go under Skills or Qualifications? The instruction says we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which to use. We have both Requirements and Qualifications maybe overlapping. Could treat "Key Qualifications" as Requirements, and "Key Nice-to-Haves" as Skills. Or we could combine them into Qualifications and Skills. Let's map:
- Requirements: mandatory qualifications (must have). That's the Key Qualifications list.
- Skills: nice-to-haves or specific skills: maybe include the nice-to-haves plus maybe mention technical skills like LiDAR, Microsoft Office, etc. But those are already in Requirements. To avoid duplication, we could put nice-to-haves under Skills.
- Benefits: we have Benefits section with details.
- Pay: we have salary $20-$31 per hour. So we need Pay section.
- Schedule: not explicitly mentioned; there is travel frequently, overnight stays, but no schedule like full-time, shift. Not given, so we should not create Schedule section.
- About Us: we have About Us paragraph but instruction says do not repeat job title as heading; but About Us is not a standard heading; we have allowed headings list; About Us not in list. Should we include? The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies we should only use those headings. So we should not include About Us. Also we should remove boilerplate like Date Posted, Minimum Date Posted, How To Apply, Internal Employee Notice, Application Deadline, Important Information. Also remove navigation/legal/EEO etc. So we keep substantive content: About The Role, Key Responsibilities, Key Qualifications, Key Nice-to-Haves, Benefits, Pay (salary). Also maybe Work Environment and Physical Demands? Those are substantive but not in allowed headings; could we put them under Requirements or Skills? They are about work environment and physical demands; could be part of Requirements or maybe a separate section not allowed. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could incorporate Work Environment and Physical Demands into Requirements or maybe a separate "Working Conditions" but not allowed. So we should fold them into Requirements or maybe Skills? Probably Requirements. Thus we will create sections:
About the Role

Responsibilities
- each bullet from Key Responsibilities.
We need to parse the bullet list: The text after "Key Responsibilities" includes sentences separated by periods but not bullet list. We need to extract each duty as separate
