We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only sections with real specific content. We have job description: "The Sr. Test Equipment Engineer designs, develops and implements cost-effective methods of testing and troubleshooting systems and equipment for all phases of product development and manufacturing. In this role, one supports the integration and testing of unmanned aircraft systems and payloads." That's a prose description; could be under "About the role" or maybe "Responsibilities"? The responsibilities list is given later. So we can put that description under "About the role". Responsibilities: list of duties. We need to extract bullet points. Responsibilities list from posting: - Designs, develops, deploys, troubleshoots and upgrades test equipment used in testing PCBAs, sub-systems, and systems - This position requires C# / OOP software development using Visual Studio IDE. Experience in NI TestStand & LabVIEW is also required - Develops test plans, requirements/specifications and strategies - Analyzes, processes, and formats test results - Independently drives for results & consistently meets deliverables on projects with aggressive timelines - Works with diverse teams across multiple disciplines - Provides timely feedback to the product design team to improve the testability of design - Develop a variety of power conversion devices, motor control systems and avionics from early stages of design through final testing and manufacturing support - Execute functional, performance and environmental tests on avionics power & propulsion components - Uses professional concepts and company objectives to resolve complex issues in creative and effective ways. Works on complex issues where analysis of data requires an in-depth evaluation of intangibles - Determines methods and procedures on new assignments and may coordinate activities of other team members (Team Lead) - Other duties as assigned We need to keep all substantive info; we can keep as list items. Basic Qualifications (Required Skills & Experience) - these are qualifications. We'll put under "Requirements" or "Qualifications". The spec says we can use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide. Probably "Requirements" for basic qualifications, "Qualifications" for other qualifications & desired competencies, "Skills" maybe for specific technical skills? But we can combine. We have "Basic Qualifications (Required Skills & Experience)" list: - B.S. degree in Electrical or Software Engineering is required or equivalent combination of education, training, and experience - Minimum of 8 – 12 years of experience in development test solutions used in a manufacturing production environment and experience with NI TestStand and LabVIEW or certified. - Experienced in writing Test Plans based on functional requirements and technical specifications - Experienced in writing bug reports and root-cause analyses - Ability to generate cost and lead time estimates based on different levels of specifications at different life cycle stages of a project - Comprehensive knowledge of engineering disciplines including mechanical and electrical design, material properties, and test instrumentation - Strong proficiency in planning, writing, and executing test specifications - Demonstrated strong knowledge of various manual and automated testing methodologies at all stages of product development - Strong testing knowledge & ability to use latest testing technology and standards Other Qualifications & Desired Competencies list: - M.S. degree preferred - Experience designing PXI based test system with NI TestStand as test executive, LabVIEW as ADE - National Instruments LabVIEW & TestStand Architect Certified (preferred) - Radio Frequency (RF) test experience preferred - Experienced in Object Oriented Programming (C# programming using Visual Studio IDE a plus) - Exercises sound judgement in selecting methods, techniques & evaluation criteria for obtaining results - Strong quality, risk quantification, and technical leadership skills - Possesses effective problem resolution, judgment & decision making skills - Strong oral and written communications skills - Able to excel in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment, where small teams share a broad variety of duties - Displays strong initiative and drive to accomplish goals and meet company objectives - Takes ownership and responsibility for current and past work products - Is committed to learning from mistakes and driven to improve and enhance performance of oneself, others, and the company - Focused on teamwork, collaboration and putting the success of the team above one's own interests Physical Demands list: - Ability to work in an office and manufacturing environment (Constant) - Required to sit and stand for long periods (Frequent) - Required to talk, hear, and use hands and fingers to operate a computer and telephone keyboard (Frequent) - Able to lift up to 10 lbs. and carry objects of varying sizes and shapes (Occasional) Clearance Level: No Clearance (maybe not needed as heading? It's minor metadata; we can fold into a short p or drop. Probably drop. Pay: "The Salary Range For This Role Is $122,500 - $187,000". So we need a Pay section with that info. Benefits: "Benefits: AV offers an excellent benefits package including medical, dental vision, 401K with company matching, a 9/80 work schedule and a paid holiday shutdown." So Benefits section. Schedule: The benefits mention a 9/80 work schedule; that is schedule info. Could be under Schedule section. But we already have benefits includes schedule; but we can still have Schedule section if we have explicit schedule info. The posting says "a 9/80 work schedule". That's schedule. We could put under Benefits or Schedule. Since we have both Benefits and Schedule sections possible, we should include Schedule only if we have explicit schedule info. We have "a 9/80 work schedule". So we can create Schedule section with that detail. Benefits section can list medical, dental vision, 401K with company matching, paid holiday shutdown. The 9/80 schedule could be moved to Schedule. We'll keep Benefits without schedule. We also have ITAR requirement and US Citizenship required; that's maybe not a section; could be under Requirements? But it's a clearance/eligibility. Could be under Requirements as a note. But we might not need a separate heading; we can incorporate into a paragraph under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction: do not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; fold minor metadata into a short p or drop it. ITAR requirement is not minor? It's substantive. Could be under Requirements as a bullet. We also have "Principals only need apply. NO agencies please." That's application instruction; we should remove. We have "About AV" section with company description; that is boilerplate? It's about the company; maybe we can include under "About the role"? Actually "About AV" is company overview; not required. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "About AV" is not exactly boilerplate but could be considered company description; but we might keep it under "About the role"? However the instruction says include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. The "About AV" is specific content about the company; but the heading "About the role" is for role description, not company. We could create a section "About the company" but not in allowed headings list. Allowed headings are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should not add extra headings. So we should omit the "About AV" paragraph. Also EEO statements etc should be removed. Thus final HTML: sections:

Maybe also Skills? Could combine technical skills into Requirements/Qualifications. But we have a separate Skills heading allowed; we could put specific technical skills like C#, OOP, Visual Studio, NI TestStand, LabVIEW, etc. However they are already in responsibilities/qualifications. To avoid duplication, we could not create Skills if content overlaps. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we might omit Skills section. Pay section:

We should also include maybe ITAR requirement under Requirements as a bullet: "Must qualify as a U.S. person under ITAR/EAR (U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, protected individual) and ITAR U.S. Citizenship required." We'll add. Now ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. We are not. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft. Check for any duplicated lines: we need to avoid repeating same content. Ensure each bullet appears once. Let's list responsibilities bullets exactly as in posting, maybe rephrase slightly but preserve meaning. We'll keep as given. Responsibilities bullets: - Designs, develops, deploys, troubleshoots and upgrades test equipment used in testing PCBAs, sub-systems, and systems - This position requires C# / OOP software development using Visual Studio IDE. Experience in NI TestStand & LabVIEW is also required - Develops test plans, requirements/specifications and strategies - Analyzes, processes, and formats test results - Independently drives for results & consistently meets deliverables on projects with aggressive timelines - Works with diverse teams across multiple disciplines - Provides timely feedback to the product design team to improve the testability of design - Develop a variety of power conversion devices, motor control systems and avionics from early stages of design through final testing and manufacturing support - Execute functional, performance and environmental tests on avionics power & propulsion components - Uses professional concepts and company objectives to resolve complex issues in creative and effective ways.
