We need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real content. The posting includes responsibilities (list of duties), qualifications (list), benefits (list). No pay or schedule info. So include About the role? The description starts with "Job Description We're looking for a contract UX Designer..." That could be considered About the role. We'll put that as

Benefits
with- . Possibly also Skills? The qualifications include many skill statements; but we can treat them as qualifications. The instruction: Use headings for section headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can include Skills if there is distinct content. The qualifications list includes many skill-like items; but we could split into Qualifications and Skills. However we must not create thin sections. Better to keep Qualifications as one section covering all qualification statements. Skills could be omitted if not distinct. The posting includes "Interested if you bring experience with:" list which is more like preferred skills. Could be Skills section. But we need to avoid filler. Let's decide: We'll have About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits. That's sufficient.
We must remove boilerplate: California Fair Chance Act, EEO, etc. Also remove "Synectics Inc. will consider qualified applicants..." etc. Also remove "Synectics is an equal opportunity employer." Also remove navigation etc.
We need to preserve all substantive information: responsibilities list, qualifications list, benefits list. Also note that portfolio is required. Also note contract UX Designer. Also mention dark-mode design expression, etc.
