Technical and Academic CV Template

Built for people whose evidence is a long list. Smaller type and tighter leading make room for publications, projects, stacks, and grants without spilling over. This is closer to an academic CV than a marketing document.

Who Tech Academic suits

  • Software and hardware engineers
  • Researchers and PhD candidates
  • Data and ML practitioners
  • Anyone with publications or a long project list

What makes this layout different

  • Smaller base font size for higher information density
  • Dedicated treatment for projects and technical skills
  • Handles long lists without awkward breaks
  • Designed to run to two or more pages cleanly

How it handles ATS

Single-column top-to-bottom flow, which is the structure applicant tracking systems parse most reliably. Standard section headings, real selectable text, no text trapped in images.
