One-Page Tech Resume Format
Single-page LaTeX-style resume layout tailored for startup engineering roles.
This reference format demonstrates a dense, single-page resume layout optimized for tech startups and Y Combinator companies. It structures bullet points using a strict formula combining action verbs, specific technologies, and measurable outcomes. The layout prioritizes clear hierarchy, minimal whitespace, and concrete engineering metrics over decorative styling.
The framework
Template structure: Name + contact links (email, GitHub, LinkedIn) at top; Education section (institution, degree, dates, GPA, one-line course/field list); Experience section with company name, role, location and dates, followed by dense bullets. Bullets follow a pattern: verb + what was built + tech named (D3/visx, Nest.js, CQRS, LoRa, Pulumi, gRPC, CRDT, TipTap, ProseMirror, CRDT, KDTree, React, Postgres, Mongo) + quantified result. Example companies: DynamoAI, Union.ai, Synthesia, Alan AI. Notable metric bullets: CVE count reduced from 609 to 2; implemented agentic-evaluation framework using foundation open-source models.
