Resumes & CVs

LaTeX resume template, one page and ATS-friendly

A dense, single-column resume in the style engineers and new grads use: education first, then experience with quantified bullets, projects, and skills. Plain LaTeX, no custom class, so it compiles anywhere and parses cleanly in applicant tracking systems.

Who it's for

Best for software, data, and engineering roles where one tight page matters. For a design or product role with a summary up top, use the modern resume. For faculty or PhD applications, use the academic CV.

How to customize this template

  1. Replace Your Name, the email, phone, and github.com/yourname on the contact line. Press Tab in the editor to jump between highlighted fields.
  2. Keep each bullet to one line: start with a verb and end with a number (latency, revenue, users, or time saved).
  3. Reorder sections by moving whole \section*{…} blocks. Put Experience above Education once you have 2+ years.
  4. Still too long? Remove the Projects section, or shrink spacing with \vspace{-4pt} after each heading.

When it looks right, press Download PDF. To take the .tex to Overleaf or a local TeX install, choose Export → LaTeX source.
