Impact, stack and measurable delivery

Software engineer resume example

Tech recruiters look for scope, stack and numbers: latency saved, revenue unlocked, users served.

This sample uses a clean, ATS-friendly layout with bullet points that show ownership and measurable results.

What to highlight

  • Languages and frameworks matched to the job posting
  • Quantified impact: performance, revenue, users, uptime
  • Ownership: led projects, mentored juniors, on-call experience
  • Links to GitHub or portfolio when relevant

Mistakes to avoid

  • Technology laundry lists without context or proficiency level
  • No metrics in bullet points
  • Multi-column layouts that break ATS parsing

Frequently asked questions

Should software engineers use a one-page resume?

Most engineers with under 10 years of experience should stay on one page. Senior/staff roles with major systems ownership can use two pages.

Do I need a GitHub link?

Include it if you have active, relevant repositories. Skip it if your GitHub is empty or unrelated to the role you want.
