After getting rejected from 100+ developer jobs, I realized the problem wasn't my skills, my resume getting filtered out by ATS systems before a human ever saw it.
So I built DevResumes.com to automate the entire resume process.
The Problem
- 75% of resumes get rejected by ATS systems before humans see them
- Manually formatting resumes is a nightmare (Word, Docs, I'm looking at you two)
- Adding GitHub projects to resumes takes hours
- Optimizing for different job descriptions is tedious
- You never know if your resume will actually pass ATS
The Solution
I built an AI-powered resume builder that automates everything:
🤖 AI-Powered Optimization
- Analyzes your resume and suggests improvements
- Enhances bullet points with quantifiable metrics
- Optimizes for ATS compatibility in real-time
🔗 GitHub Integration
- Connects to your GitHub account
- Automatically imports all your projects
- One click, done. No more copy-pasting URLs.
📊 Real-Time ATS Scoring
- See your ATS score as you build
- Get suggestions on what to fix
- Know if your resume will pass before you apply
🎯 Job Description Matching
- Paste any job description
- Automatically tailors your resume to match
- Incorporates keywords naturally (no stuffing)
📄 Professional Templates
- Export to PDF with perfect formatting
- No more fighting with Word tables
How It Works
- Connect GitHub (optional but recommended)
- Import your projects automatically
- Build your resume with AI suggestions
- Check your ATS score in real-time
- Tailor for specific jobs with one click
- Export to PDF and apply
Tech Stack
- Backend: Spring Boot, PostgreSQL
- Frontend: Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind
- AI: OpenAI API for optimization
- Payments: Stripe
- Auth: JWT + GitHub OAuth
Try It Free
I'm offering a free tier so developers can actually use this:

What's Next
I'm constantly improving based on user feedback. Currently working on:
- More resume templates
- Better ATS scoring algorithms
- Integration with more job boards
- Chrome extension for one-click applications
Lessons Learned
Building this taught me:
- ATS systems are brutal (but beatable)
- Developers hate manual resume work (shocking, I know)
- AI can actually make resumes better (not just generic)
- GitHub integration is a game-changer
Feedback Welcome
I'd love to hear what you think! Try it out and let me know:
- What features are missing?
- What would make your life easier?
- What's your biggest resume pain point?
TL;DR: I automated resume building for developers. GitHub integration, AI optimization, ATS scoring, job matching—all automated. Try it free.
