How to Write a Software Engineer Resume
A Software Engineer resume is judged on evidence of shipped work. Employers want to see what you have built, how you built it, and what happened when it went out. Name the technologies in context. 'Built a REST API in Spring Boot that handles a specific load' beats a flat list of languages. Show the outcome as well as the feature: users served, latency cut, downtime avoided, cost reduced. Keep it to a page or two. Recruiters scan quickly, so every line should justify its place.
