Summary

Senior engineer with 8 years shipping payments and identity infrastructure at scale. Led the migration that moved 40M daily auth events off a monolith, cutting p99 by 62%. Bias for small diffs, honest estimates, and writing things down.

Why this matters

Engineers who copy responsibilities from Jira tickets into their resume end up with bullets like "Worked on frontend tasks." That reads as low ownership. Recruiters want to see what shipped, what broke, what got better, and by how much.

Section order

Put the right things at the top.

Hiring managers for software engineers read top-down and stop early. We surface the sections they care about first.

Numbers to quantify

Latency reductions (ms or %), throughput numbers (req/s, MAU), incident reduction (MTTR, error-rate), team impact (engineers mentored, reviews unblocked), cost savings ($, % of infra budget).

Forced one page

Live overflow warnings. Nothing spills to page 2 by accident.

AI tightens bullets

Our rewriter turns duty lists into outcome statements.
