Hi everyone,
As a Full-Stack and Cloud engineer, I’m used to automating everything I can. Whether I'm managing my 28+ container Kubernetes homelab on Proxmox or writing deployment scripts, I absolutely hate doing the same manual task twice.
But a few months ago, when I was hunting for a new role, I found myself doing exactly that: manually tweaking my resume for every single job, copy-pasting into black-box ATS portals, and tracking it all in a chaotic spreadsheet. It was completely draining.
So, I took a break from the applications and built a tool to solve my own problem.
It’s called OneApply. It started as a small browser extension to check ATS keywords, but it quickly snowballed into a complete workspace.
Here is what the stack handles now:
Resume Tailoring: Automatically adjusts your resume to fit specific job descriptions.
ATS Keyword Scoring: Checks your overlap with the job description so you know you'll actually pass the automated filters.
Cover Letter Generation: Drafts contextual cover letters based on the role and your specific engineering experience.
Pipeline Tracking: Manages all your applications natively so you can finally ditch the spreadsheets.
Building this and using it to automate the worst parts of the daily grind actually helped me land my current SRE role.
Since it worked for me, I decided to polish it up and release it for other devs who are currently stuck in the application trenches. We all know the tech market is tough right now, and any edge helps.
I would love for this community to try it out and roast the UX, the workflow, or the core features.

I am more than happy to hand out some premium access codes to anyone here who is actively applying and wants to test drive the full feature set. Just drop a comment below!
