Technical Director
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real content.
We need to parse the posting.
First, remove boilerplate: navigation, EEO, etc. Also remove application instructions (like call/email for accommodation). Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to preserve substantive info: role details, day-to-day, key projects, qualifications, salary range, benefits, etc.
We need to format as semantic HTML.
We need to decide sections:
- About the role: maybe a paragraph summarizing role? The posting includes "Role Details: The ideal candidate will have extensive knowledge of broadcast operations and production activities. The Technical Director will work collaboratively with Directors, Producers and Graphics/Video Teams in planning newscasts and overseeing the crew on newscast pre-production activities." That's about role.
- Responsibilities: "Your Day-to-Day:" list bullet points.
- Key Projects: maybe under Responsibilities or separate? Could be "Key Projects:" bullet.
- Qualifications: list bullet points.
- Skills: maybe not separate; qualifications cover skills.
- Benefits: list benefits.
- Pay: salary range.
- Schedule: mention rotating schedules, all shifts, weekends, overnights, holidays, flexible hours.
We need to avoid sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no or . Use for each section heading. Use - for lists. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, accommodation instructions, etc.
Let's extract content.

We need to strip out the fluff at start: "WeAreParamount on a mission..." maybe we can keep some about company? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." The fluff about mission may be considered substantive? It's generic marketing. Might be considered boilerplate? Not sure. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The fluff about mission is not exactly those categories, but could be considered marketing fluff. However, we might keep a brief "About the role" paragraph that includes role details. The mission statement may be considered not essential to the job. Safer to omit generic marketing fluff and focus on role specifics.
Thus we will produce sections:
About the role
The Technical Director will work collaboratively with Directors, Producers and Graphics/Video Teams in planning newscasts and overseeing the crew on newscast pre-production activities. The ideal candidate will have extensive knowledge of broadcast operations and production activities.
But we need to preserve all substantive info: maybe also mention CBS Sports Digital description? Could be considered substantive about the team. Might include in About the role.
Let's include a paragraph about CBS Sports Digital: "CBS Sports Digital is a portfolio of premium digital sports media properties including CBSSports.com, CBS Sports HQ, The Golazo Network, CBS Sports Network, Paramount+ and SportsLine, consistently ranked a top-three sports property reaching more than 70M sports fans monthly across desktop, mobile, and connected TV devices."
That seems substantive.
Now Responsibilities: "Your Day-to-Day:" list items. Need to split into bullet points.
Original: "Set up and prepare the studio for each broadcast including lighting and camera framingCheck in each guest/analyst via LiveU, Zoom, etc. This includes a full audio checkDirect, switch, and operate audio and cameras during broadcasts. Show times and durations vary from 15 minutes to full hour broadcasts on CBS Sports HQWork closely with various Paramount Global entities to connect guests and analystsMust be prepared for breaking news and postgame reactions throughout each shift at any time"
We need to separate sentences. Let's parse:
- Set up and prepare the studio for each broadcast including lighting and camera framing
- Check in each guest/analyst via LiveU, Zoom, etc. This includes a full audio check
- Direct, switch, and operate audio and cameras during broadcasts.
- Show times and durations vary from 15 minutes to full hour broadcasts on CBS Sports HQ
- Work closely with various Paramount Global entities to connect guests and analysts
- Must be prepared for breaking news and postgame reactions throughout each shift at any time
We'll make - for each.
Key Projects: "Work closely with CBS Sports Broadcast to create compelling content for customers on CBS Sports Digital platforms." That's a single bullet.
Qualifications: list bullet points.
Original qualifications paragraph: "You have - At least 3 years of "hands-on" experience in the technical direction of television newscastsSince the schedules will rotate, you must be able to work all shifts, including weekends and overnights, and holidays.

We need to split into sensible bullet points:
- At least 3 years of "hands-on" experience in the technical direction of television newscasts
- Ability to work all shifts, including weekends, overnights, and holidays (rotating schedules)
- Ability to work additional hours beyond scheduled shift with little or no notice if needed
- Willing and able to work flexible hours under tight deadline pressure, including breaking news
- Experience with ELC OPERATIONS – calling and cutting News Broadcasts, Camera Robotics, Audio Consoles, Playout Servers, and Graphics Playback
