The instruction: remove application instructions, duplicated lines, cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The Ogden description is not boilerplate; it's location info. Could be included in a short p under About the role or maybe a separate section? There's no heading for location; we could just include as a paragraph after About the role. We must not invent sections like Pay or Schedule. Thus we will produce:

About the role

... (job description paragraph)

Responsibilities

  • Teach lower- and upper-division undergraduate courses (lectures and labs) based on the candidate’s interest/expertise and department needs.
  • Establish an active and sustained research program with an emphasis on engaging undergraduate students in computational chemistry.
  • Serve on department and university committees.

Requirements

  • Ph.D. in chemistry, biochemistry, or a closely related field completed before July 2027. ABD candidates considered if the degree is completed before July 2027.
  • Research experience in computational chemistry, quantum chemistry, molecular dynamics, cheminformatics, chemical applications of machine learning, artificial intelligence, or a closely related field.

Qualifications

Preferred qualifications include:

  • Proven dedication to excellence in teaching at the undergraduate level.
  • Ability to contribute in meaningful ways to the department, college, and university’s advancement of student success.
  • A demonstrated commitment to high-quality research and the ability to integrate research interests into undergraduate-level projects.
  • Ability to establish and maintain undergraduate mentoring relationships, including mentoring students of all backgrounds.
  • Track record of collaborative professionalism.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • Willingness to consistently work to expand application of evidence-based pedagogies to teaching.
  • Collaborate with departmental colleagues on course and laboratory design.
  • Establish and maintain a productive undergraduate research program.
  • Mentor students of all backgrounds to support their academic success and career development.
  • Carry out Department, College, and University service consistent with the candidate’s interest and the needs of the institution.

Skills

Maybe we could combine some of the above into Skills but we already have Qualifications. The instruction: Use headings for Skills if there is real specific content. We have skills listed in Preferred Qualifications; we could put them under Skills instead of Qualifications. But we need to avoid duplication. Let's decide: Use Requirements for required qualifications, Qualifications for preferred qualifications, Skills for specific skills like teaching, research, mentoring, communication, collaboration. However the Preferred Qualifications already includes skills. Might be better to have Requirements (required), Qualifications (preferred), and Skills (maybe not needed). But we need to avoid thin sections. Could combine Qualifications and Skills into one section called Qualifications. But we have headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose to include Qualifications and Skills if content exists. Let's put preferred qualifications under Qualifications, and under Skills we could list specific abilities like teaching, research, mentoring, communication, collaboration. However that would duplicate. Better to put preferred qualifications under Qualifications and maybe not include Skills unless we have distinct skill list not already covered. The posting includes "Proven dedication to excellence in teaching", "Ability to contribute...", "Ability to establish and maintain undergraduate mentoring relationships", "Track record of collaborative professionalism", "Excellent verbal and written communication skills". Those are skills. So we could put those under Skills. And under Qualifications we could put the "Seeking Applicants With The Following Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities" heading? Actually that's the same. Hmm. Simplify: Use Requirements for required qualifications. Use Qualifications for preferred qualifications (the list). Skip Skills section because content already covered. That follows instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we will have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits. Now Benefits: we have Benefits Summary paragraph. We also might include a short paragraph about location (Ogden) under About the role maybe after job description. Could add as another p. Let's craft About the role p: combine job description paragraph plus location info. Job description paragraph: "The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Weber State University invites applications for a tenure-track position starting July 1, 2027. We seek a broadly trained computational chemist whose expertise may include, but is not limited to, physical chemistry and molecular modeling (quantum chemistry and molecular dynamics), cheminformatics and data science, machine learning and artificial intelligence, and computational approaches to areas such as biomolecular modeling, drug discovery, materials science, catalysis, or electrochemistry. The successful candidate will contribute to the development and integration of computational approaches throughout the undergraduate chemistry and biochemistry curriculum by incorporating appropriate computational, data-science, and AI-based tools into introductory and upper-division courses. The candidate will also be expected to develop an undergraduate-centered research program that provides students with meaningful opportunities to apply computational methods to contemporary problems in chemistry and/or biochemistry. We particularly welcome candidates whose research and teaching can strengthen interdisciplinary collaborations and expand opportunities for students to gain experience with computational and data-driven approaches in chemistry." Location info: "Ogden is a beautiful city with a rich culture and history. In 2019, Forbes rated Ogden as one of the top ten cities in the United States in which to raise a family. Ogden is 45 minutes from Salt Lake City and its international airport. An average of 223 sunny days a year and immediate access to skiing, biking, camping, hiking, and fishing make it an outdoor paradise. Ogden is within a half-day drive of world-class national parks, including Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and Utah’s “Mighty Five”. Numerous cultural activities are available all along the Wasatch Front from Ogden to Salt Lake City to Provo. The Utah Transit Authority operates an ever-expanding network of buses and light rail that connect the population centers, including a high-speed train that covers nearly 100 miles from Provo in the south to Ogden in the north. It also provides a seamless transit option from Ogden to the Salt Lake International airport." We can include that as a second p under About the role. Now Benefits: "WSU offers a generous benefits package that includes medical, dental, long-term disability, life insurance, retirement, a wellness program with release time and paid incentives, tuition benefits, free tickets to athletic and performing arts events, and paid holidays." We should not include "Full/Part Time Full Time" maybe as a short p under About the role? Could add but not necessary. Might be considered minor metadata; we could drop. Now ensure we don't include any boilerplate like EEO, navigation, etc. We removed. Now output HTML fragment. Let's construct:
