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 must not repeat job title as heading. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions. Must preserve all substantive information. We need to parse the posting: It's duplicated content (two copies). We'll extract unique substantive info. Key content: - Position: Tenure-track Assistant Professor, Department of Landscape Architecture, University of Florida, College of Design, Construction and Planning. Nine-month, tenure-accruing faculty position, rank Assistant Professor, start August 2026. - Department description: dynamic faculty, seeking expertise in emergent AI use or computational design and digital fabrication in landscape research, teaching, or practice. Also outstanding applicants with scholarship in construction/design-build or complement existing areas: conservation planning, landscape perception/performance, resilient designs for climate adaptation, cultural landscapes. - Requirements: advanced degree in Landscape Architecture or allied field required. Consider wide range of backgrounds; candidates should have record of excellence in education, research, creative works, or professional practice in landscape architecture. Doctorate degree and/or professional licensure preferred but not required. - Expectations: contribute to disciplinary knowledge via peer-reviewed publications and scholarship; preferably demonstrate ability to generate extra-mural funding; well-developed pedagogy to engage multicultural interdisciplinary student body; capacity to teach in professional accredited BLA and MLA degree programs; engage in service consistent with missions. - Salary: commensurate with qualifications and experience. (This is vague; we should not create Pay section if content is just "commensurate with qualifications and experience" which is placeholder? The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does state "Salary is commensurate with qualifications and experience." That's still a statement but it's vague. The instruction says: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Since it states "Salary is commensurate with qualifications and experience." That is essentially "commensurate with experience" which is considered filler? Likely we should not create Pay section because it's just that phrase. The instruction says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state salary is commensurate... but that's still a statement. However they gave example of "commensurate with experience" as filler to avoid. So we should omit Pay section. - Benefits: "Compensation includes a full benefits package with health insurance, retirement options, and paid leave." Also "The University of Florida has a dual career academic hire program." That's substantive benefits info. So we can include Benefits section with those details. - Schedule: nine-month position (academic year). That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section: nine-month, tenure-accruing faculty position (likely academic year). That's specific. - Also mention start date August 2026. - Application instructions etc should be removed. - Also mention Department description, history, mission etc. That could be About the role or maybe a separate section like About the Department. But we only allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can put department description under About the role. - Responsibilities: teaching, research, service, funding, publications, etc. - Requirements: advanced degree required, doctorate/licensure preferred, record of excellence. - Qualifications: maybe similar to requirements? Could separate: Qualifications: expertise in emergent AI use or computational design/digital fabrication, or scholarship in construction/design-build, complement existing areas (conservation planning, landscape perception/performance, resilient designs for climate adaptation, cultural landscapes). Also ability to generate extra-mural funding, pedagogy for multicultural interdisciplinary student body, capacity to teach BLA/MLA. - Skills: maybe list specific skills: AI use, computational design, digital fabrication, research, teaching, grant writing, etc. But we should not invent. We can extract from text: expertise and interest in emergent AI use or computational design and digital fabrication in landscape research, teaching, or/and practice. Also ability to generate extra-mural funding. Pedagogy to engage multicultural interdisciplinary student body. Capacity to teach in BLA and MLA programs. Service consistent with missions. We need to avoid duplication. Let's craft sections:
