On-siteManagementFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes description before responsibilities: "SpaceX was founded under the belief..." That's about the company. Could be "About the role" or "About the position". The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Include a section only when posting has real, specific content. We have responsibilities list. We have "Position Details" includes temporary, length, location. Could be "About the role" or "Position Details". We have "Basic Qualifications", "Preferred Skills And Experience", "Additional Requirements", "ITAR Requirements". Also "Ability to work one of the following shifts:" etc. That's schedule info. So we can have sections: About the role (company mission), Responsibilities, Qualifications (maybe combine Basic Qualifications and Preferred Skills?), Skills (maybe Preferred Skills), Additional Requirements (physical demands), Schedule (shifts), ITAR Requirements (maybe as a note). Benefits, Pay not present, so omit. We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is "THERMAL DEVELOPMENT TECHNICIAN (STARSHIP) - TEMPORARY". Not to be used as heading. We must preserve all substantive info, not invent. Remove boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, cookie/navigation/legal. Also remove "Learn more about the ITAR here." maybe keep ITAR requirement text but not the link? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The ITAR requirement is substantive (citizenship requirement). Keep that. The EEO statement is boilerplate, remove. Also "SpaceX is an Equal Opportunity Employer..." remove. Also "Position Details" includes length, location. Could be part of About the role? Better to have a section "Position Details" but not in allowed headings list? The allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It says e.g., not exhaustive? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use those headings; we could also use other headings if needed? Probably stick to those. So we need to map content to those headings. About the role: include mission statement and description of role (TPS team, hands-on environment, office/factory/lab). Also maybe position details (temporary, length, location) could be part of About the role. Responsibilities: list of duties. Requirements: maybe combine Basic Qualifications and ITAR? But ITAR is separate legal requirement. Could be under Requirements. Qualifications: maybe Basic Qualifications. Skills: Preferred Skills And Experience. Schedule: shift info. Additional Requirements: physical demands maybe under Requirements or Additional Requirements? There's no heading for Additional Requirements in list, but we could put under Requirements or maybe under Skills? Better to put under Requirements (since it's about ability to work shifts, physical demands). However we already have Schedule for shift times; physical demands could be under Requirements. We must not create sections with filler. Ensure each heading has substantive content. Let's extract content. About the role: - SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of enabling human life on Mars. - The Thermal Protection Systems (TPS) team tackles space exploration’s toughest problems by developing the heat shields for our next-generation rockets and spacecraft. This hardware must survive the most extreme environments known to mankind and protect our vehicle through atmospheric entry. - As a technician on the TPS team, you will thrive in a hands-on environment. You will spend time in the office, on the factory floor, and in the lab to execute on the mission to bring the capability of flying astronauts back to the United States. Position Details (temporary, length, location): - This is a TEMPORARY position with SpaceX, for the length of time as stated, and is subject to change with minimal notice as business needs dictate. - LENGTH OF POSITION: 3 months (permanent hire conversion based on performance and business need) - LOCATION: Starbase, TX We can incorporate that into About the role or maybe a separate "About the role" includes that. Responsibilities (list): - Preprocess and manufacture ceramic fibers, filaments, and powders required for the fabrication of next-tier products (candidate must be comfortable working with these types of ceramic materials) - Fabricate ceramic refractory billets, ceramic tiles, thermal gap fillers, coatings, and other components required for a robust thermal protection system - Basic fabrication, surface preparation for processing, bonding, and oven curing - Document processes precisely to be able to replicate each step taken in the material processing - Perform product inspection and rework as required - Read and interpret engineering drawings with an understanding for drawing symbols, flag notes, and general notes - Assist in the maintenance and repair of production machinery Basic Qualifications: - High school diploma or equivalency certificate - Experience with various types of hand tools or hand-held power tools Preferred Skills And Experience: - Ability to use precision measuring instruments (calipers, height gauge, depth mic) - Ability to operate personnel platforms (boom lifts, scissor lifts, etc.) - Ability to perform work according to procedures and specifications - Experience setting up assemblies and parts in various types of processing and curing equipment such as an ovens and high temperature kilns to obtain desired set and cure - Proficient/experienced to accurately measure and mix using scales for the process of tile coatings, sealants and RTV applications - Comfortable working with solvents, ceramic precursors, inorganic acids and bases - Experience with thermal protection system (TPS) or phenolic impregnated carbon ablator (PICA) - Experience applying sealants, alodine, primer, adhesives, and special finishes - Good understanding of basic mathematical concepts - Fluent in the Office platform (Microsoft Word, and Excel) - Experience operating and maintaining Kuka or other 6 –axis robots - Experience in using Simantic or other HMIs - Basic understanding of stud arc welding - Basic understanding of robotic automation - Experience working with Programmable Logic Control (PLC) in an automation setting Additional Requirements (physical demands, shifts): - Ability to work one of the following shifts: - Monday- Friday (6:00 a.m. – 6:30 p.m.) - Monday -Friday (6:00 p.m. – 6:30 a.m.) - Possess a valid Drivers License - Sit: Up to 1 hour per day - Push/Pull: Up to 50lbs. (unassisted) 30 minutes to 1 hour per day - Overhead reach: Up to 6 hours per day - Walk: Up to 6 hours per day - Lift/Carry: Up to 25lbs. (unassisted) 30 minutes to 1 hour per day - Climb (ladder/stairs): Up to 6 hours per day - Kneel/Crouch: Up to 6 hours per day - Upper body twist: Up to 6 hours per day - Ability to work in temperatures over 80 degrees Up to 1 hour per day - Candidate must be capable of safely working at heights (up to 500ft), using an air purifying respirator, and performing the physical requirements of the job listed in the job description - Candidate may be required to complete a pre-employment questionnaire and/or physical to confirm these capabilities, which may include a medical history review ITAR Requirements: - To conform to U.S. Government export regulations, applicant must be a (i) U.S. citizen or national, (ii) U.S. lawful, permanent resident (aka green card holder), (iii) Refugee under 8 U.S.C.1157, or (iv) Asylee under 8 U.S.C.1158, or be eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State. We must not include the "Learn more about the ITAR here." link. Now produce HTML with

headings and appropriate
  • for lists,

    for prose. We need to decide which sections to include. We have About the role (prose). Could include mission + TPS team description + hands-on environment + position details (temporary, length, location). That's substantive. Responsibilities (list). Qualifications (maybe Basic Qualifications). Could be

    Qualifications

    with list. Skills (Preferred Skills And Experience) as

    Skills

    with list. Schedule (shift info) as

    Schedule

    with list (maybe also include drivers license? That's not schedule but could be under Additional Requirements). But we have shift info only; we could put shift info under Schedule. Requirements could include ITAR and physical demands? But we already have Schedule for shifts; physical demands could be under Requirements. However we have no separate heading for physical demands; we could incorporate under Requirements. But we must not create sections with filler. If we put Requirements heading, we need substantive content: ITAR requirements and physical demands. That's fine. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Schedule, Requirements. Check that we don't duplicate content. Now craft HTML. We need to ensure we don't include any markdown fences. Just raw HTML. Let's write:
