Jake’s Resume is a single-column LaTeX design that has become the default for engineering and computer-science applicants. It leads with a bold serif name, a full-width rule under each section, and right-aligned dates, so the page reads like a clean technical document.

Because everything sits in one column with standard headings, it parses cleanly in applicant tracking systems and stays easy to edit. Keep it to one page and it is hard to beat for a technical role.
