Software Engineer — Technical Two-Column
Why software engineers need a resume built for the role
You've shipped real features and fixed real bugs, but translating day-to-day engineering work into resume bullets that show impact is harder than the coding itself.
When a resume lists technologies without context, recruiters and engineering leads can't tell whether you built something meaningful or just touched the code.
How IRB helps
IRB structures this template around specific technical contributions and outcomes, so your engineering work reads as impact, not just a list of languages.
