We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting. First, remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. We need to keep substantive info: description about SPP, core ideology, benefits, compensation info, overview, responsibilities, additional lead-level responsibilities, required qualifications (by level), preferred qualifications, other requirements (knowledge, skills). Also note visa sponsorship note. We need to decide sections. We have: - About the role / Overview: The paragraph about Transmission Design Analyst role, responsibilities overview. - Responsibilities: list of responsibilities (core responsibilities and additional lead-level responsibilities). Could combine. - Requirements: maybe required qualifications (by level) and other requirements (knowledge, skills). Could separate. - Qualifications: maybe preferred qualifications. - Skills: maybe other requirements (knowledge, skills) but we already have. - Benefits: list of benefits described. - Pay: compensation information with salary ranges. - Schedule: maybe hybrid working environment mentioned. We must not create sections with filler like "not specified". So only include sections where we have content. Let's extract content. About the role / Overview: "We have a core ideology here at SPP that we stand by: Do the right thing, for the right reason, in the right way. We believe in supporting our employees through a fantastic benefits package: ..." Actually that's benefits. Overview: "Overview The Transmission Design Analyst plays a key role in shaping and analyzing transmission market design within SPP. The role is responsible for evaluating current transmission market structures, analyzing proposed changes, and supporting SPP Working Groups through facilitation and in‑depth market analysis. This position collaborates with Operations, Legal, Regulatory, Settlements, Training, Engineering, Planning, and Markets teams to ensure alignment across policies, products, processes, and software. The role also engages with market participants, transmission owners, vendors, FERC, and other RTOs/ISOs to influence transmission market policy and design. Responsibilities include facilitating discussions and presenting market design changes to stakeholder committees and groups." We can put that under

About the role

or Overview. Use About the role. Responsibilities: list bullet points. Core Responsibilities list: - Review and analyze current transmission market design, identifying market weaknesses and evaluating impacts of proposed modifications - Design complex solutions to new or changing transmission products, including settlement calculations and functional documentation - Provide support and technical expertise to Working Groups and committees, such as the Transmission Working Group and Market Working Group - Collaborate internally across departments to maintain alignment with transmission market design principles - Conduct transmission market analysis to identify and resolve issues - Develop and maintain transmission market metrics, create reports, and prepare educational materials - Research transmission market designs across other RTOs/ISOs - Facilitate discussions, document studies, and present findings - Support FERC filings through data preparation and assistance with transmittal materials Additional Lead‑Level Responsibilities: - Maintain transmission product and settlement simulation platforms - Recommend transmission market design changes and support initiatives through the SPP stakeholder process - Train and mentor Transmission Design Analysts We can combine all responsibilities into one list. Requirements: maybe required qualifications (by level) and other requirements (knowledge, skills). Could have a section Requirements with subpoints? But we must use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can have a

    Requirements

    with a
      containing required qualifications and other requirements? Might be too mixed. Better to separate: Required Qualifications (

      Required Qualifications

      ) and Preferred Qualifications (

      Preferred Qualifications

      ) and Skills (

      Skills

      ) maybe. But instructions: Use

      for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). They gave examples but we can choose any of those. They said "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". So we can include sections that match those headings if we have content. Thus we can have: - About the role (overview) - Responsibilities - Required Qualifications - Preferred Qualifications - Skills (maybe from Other Requirements) - Benefits - Pay - Schedule (hybrid working environment) We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers. We must remove boilerplate: EEO statement, visa sponsorship note? The visa sponsorship note is substantive? It says "PLEASE NOTE: SPP is not able to sponsor employment visas or student-work authorizations (STEM OPT) for this position. Please ensure you are eligible to work in the U.S. without sponsorship prior to applying." That's a requirement (eligibility). Could be included under Requirements or Other Requirements. It's substantive, not boilerplate. We'll keep it. We also need to remove duplicated lines, cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The EEO statement at end is boilerplate; we should remove it. Also the "Culture of Belonging - SPP" link is boilerplate; remove. Now compile content. About the role: we can include the core ideology paragraph? Actually that's more about company values; could be part of About the role. But we might keep it as part of About the role. Let's draft About the role: Southwest Power Pool (SPP) is about more than power. We’re about the power of relationships. Our employees have the opportunity to work together to ensure electricity is delivered reliably and affordably to the millions of people living in our service territory. We have been voted one of Arkansas’ Best Places to work by Arkansas Business and we are looking for a member of our team who is passionate about our mission to keep the lights on! We have a core ideology here at SPP that we stand by: Do the right thing, for the right reason, in the right way. Then overview paragraph about role. We'll combine. Responsibilities: list as
      • . Required Qualifications: we have three levels with different experience. Could present as list: - Senior Transmission Design Analyst: Bachelor’s degree in economics, mathematics, business, or related field; Five (5) years of job‑related experience - Senior Transmission Design Analyst II: Bachelor’s degree in economics, mathematics, business, or related field; Eight (8) years of job‑related experience, including RTO transmission market support, design, or implementation - Lead Transmission Design Analyst: Bachelor’s degree in economics, mathematics, business, or related field; Ten (10) years of job‑related experience, including RTO transmission market support, design, or implementation We could also note that advanced degree is preferred. Preferred Qualifications: list bullet points.

We need to present Pay section: maybe a
          with each level range. Schedule: hybrid working environment already in benefits; but we could also have Schedule section noting hybrid working environment. However we already have hybrid in benefits; maybe we can skip Schedule to avoid duplication. But instructions: only include section if posting has real specific content. Hybrid working environment is mentioned under benefits; we could still have Schedule section but it's duplicate. Better to include Schedule only if not already covered. Since we have hybrid in benefits, we could still include Schedule but it's redundant. I'd omit Schedule. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Required Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. Now produce HTML fragment. We must not include or . Just the fragment. Let's craft.
