How to write a backend developer resume

Lead with a summary that names the role ("Backend Developer (Node.js)") and your strongest, most quantifiable outcome.

Mirror the skills hiring managers scan for: Node.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Kafka, Redis, AWS.

Start every bullet with a strong action verb and attach a number: %, $, users, or time saved.

Early in your career, projects and internships carry the resume: give them full bullet treatment with metrics.

Keep formatting single-column with standard section names so every ATS parses it cleanly.
