HybridFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections that have real specific content.
We need to parse the job posting.
Job Type: Full-time (maybe not needed). Description includes "The Opportunity ..." etc.
We need to produce sections: maybe "About the role" (intro), "Responsibilities" (What You'll Do), "Requirements" (What We're Looking For Required), "Preferred Qualifications" maybe "Qualifications" or "Skills". The instructions: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose appropriate headings.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc.
We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. At end there is "RETTEW is an Equal Opportunity Employer..." and accommodation line. Remove that.
Also "Requirements Requirements listed above" at end is duplicate; we should not duplicate.
We need to preserve all substantive info.
Let's extract content:
- Intro: "The Opportunity RETTEW is seeking an experienced Water/Wastewater Engineering Project Manager to lead infrastructure projects that directly support the reliability, safety, and long-term resilience of the communities we serve. In this role, you'll take ownership of water and wastewater projects from planning through design, permitting, and delivery. You'll manage project scope, schedule, and budget; serve as a trusted client contact; coordinate multidisciplinary teams; and help develop the engineers working alongside you. You'll have the autonomy to lead your projects while still having access to experienced technical professionals, Project Managers, and leadership when complex challenges arise. As a 100% employee-owned company, successful project delivery, strong client relationships, and sustainable growth directly contribute to the company we collectively own."
That's about the role.
- "What You'll Do As a Water/Wastewater Engineering Project Manager, you will:" then bullet list (actually sentences separated by periods). We'll convert to

Continue developing toward larger project, client, and leadership responsibilities.

- "Employee Ownership" paragraph: description of ESOP.
- "Work Environment": Workplace Designation: Hybrid Locations: Lancaster, PA | State College, PA | Mechanicsburg, PA This role combines in-office collaboration, remote work, client interaction, and project-related travel as needed. Collaboration with professionals across RETTEW offices and disciplines is expected to support project delivery, client needs, and resource sharing.
- "About RETTEW": paragraph about company.
We need to decide which sections to output.
We have content for:
- About the role (intro)
- Responsibilities (What You'll Do)
- Requirements (Required)
- Qualifications/Skills (Preferred) maybe combine as "Qualifications" or "Skills". The instruction says we can use headings like Qualifications, Skills. We'll decide to have "Qualifications" for required and maybe "Preferred Qualifications" but we cannot create extra headings not in list? The list includes Qualifications, Skills. We could put required under "Requirements" and preferred under "Qualifications" or "Skills". Probably better: "Requirements" for required, "Preferred Qualifications" maybe not in list; but we could use "Qualifications" for preferred. Or we could combine both required and preferred under "Requirements" and "Qualifications". Let's do:
Requirements
for required, Qualifications
for preferred.
- Benefits: we have Employee Ownership and Work Environment (Hybrid) maybe also "Why RETTEW" which is more about benefits/opportunities. Could treat "Why RETTEW" as Benefits section. The instruction says include Benefits section only if posting actually states them. The posting includes "Why RETTEW" which lists opportunities; that could be considered benefits. Also Employee Ownership is a benefit. Work Environment hybrid is also a benefit. So we can have a Benefits section that includes those points.
- Pay: not mentioned, so omit.
- Schedule: not mentioned (only hybrid but not schedule). So omit.
We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We must not duplicate lines.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no or , no markdown.

Employee Ownership:
RETTEW is a 100% employee-owned company. Through our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), eligible employees have the opportunity to build ownership in the company and share in the long-term value we create together. Our employee-owners are encouraged to think beyond individual assignments—to build strong client relationships, deliver excellent work, improve how we operate, and contribute to the long-term success of the company.

We could also include About RETTEW maybe as "About the company" but not in headings list. Could omit or include as a paragraph under Benefits? The instruction says we can include sections only when posting has real specific content. About RETTEW is substantive but not a standard heading; we could incorporate into Benefits or maybe as a separate section "About RETTEW". But the allowed headings list does not include "About RETTEW". However we could still use About RETTEW
? The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It gives examples but not exclusive list. It says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect those headings only. So we should not add other headings like About RETTEW. We could incorporate that paragraph into Benefits or maybe as a
without heading. But we need to preserve all substantive info. We can include a
about RETTEW after Benefits without a heading. That's acceptable.
