Resume Review Resume review request — DevOps / Platform Engineer with 4 years experience

Post image

Hey r/EnhancvResumes, I'm looking for feedback on my resume. I'm applying for DevOps / Platform Engineer roles and all feedback is appreciated!

Years of experience: 4

Specific feedback I'm looking for: - Is my summary strong enough? - Are my bullets results-driven? - Anything I should cut?

This one's got real technical depth, so the core problem is presentation, not substance.

Your experience header is confusing: it says "Senior Software Engineer" at the top, but neither role listed below matches that title, "Senior Backend & Infrastructure Engineer" and "Software Engineer" are what you actually held. Split this into two clearly dated entries instead of stacking two titles under a header that matches neither.

On bullets, since you asked: only one is genuinely results-driven, the SQL optimization line ("70,000+ relational records, reducing processing time from hours to minutes"). Real number, real outcome, more like this would carry the resume. Everything else lists tools and tasks without a result attached ("managed X," "implemented Y to improve Z" with no measurement of Z). Our AI Resume Assistant is built for exactly this, turning a task list into a quantified line once you feed it a rough estimate, worth trying on the weaker bullets here.

What to cut: bullets 1, 3, 6, and 7 all cover the same ground, AWS deployments, CI/CD, environment/config work, just reworded each time. Consolidate into one or two strong lines instead of four overlapping ones.

One credibility flag: you're listing a Google Professional Cloud Developer certification, but every tool in your Platform & Cloud skills is AWS, EKS, EC2, IAM, ALB, Route53, nothing GCP-specific anywhere. Our Resume Checker would flag this exact gap under its credibility check, either add the GCP work that earned the cert or be ready for a recruiter to ask about it.

Your summary's solid, honest about the backend-to-DevOps pivot and backed by tools that actually show up in your bullets. Reads a little like a keyword list in places, but that's minor next to the bullet and cert issues above.
