No photo

Although the page divides into several areas, the sections are built with flex rather than tables and the text layer stays linear, so common parsers take the information in the right order.

There is no photo area; the header stays pure text, so parsers read the name and contact lines without breaking them apart.

How the Engineering Plain template is built

Knowing how information sits on the page before you pick a template directly affects how your application gets read.

Information panel on the left

Contact, skills, languages and certifications gather into a panel on the left, leaving the main area entirely to work experience. Panel and body are built with flex rather than tables.

Typography

Body and headings share one sans-serif family, reading equally cleanly on screen and in print.

Section headings

Section headings are set in spaced capitals — distinct from the body without needing any graphic element.

Use of colour

The template is entirely colourless. It looks identical on a black-and-white printer and in PDF viewers without a colour profile.

Density

Generous line spacing and plenty of white space. On short and mid-length resumes it lets the page breathe instead of forcing it to look full.

How skills are presented

Skills are presented as a single tech-stack block, which makes the tool names a technical employer is scanning for the fastest to find.

When not to choose this template

  • Applications where a visual portfolio is expected in the document itself
  • Creative roles where visual presentation forms part of the assessment
  • Very long career histories running past three pages

You can compare the alternatives side by side in the template comparison table.

Frequently asked questions

About the Engineering Plain template

Is the Engineering Plain template ATS-friendly?

ATS compatibility for this template is rated “very good”. Although the page divides into several areas, the sections are built with flex rather than tables and the text layer stays linear, so common parsers take the information in the right order.

Does the Engineering Plain template include a photo?

There is no photo area; the header stays pure text, so parsers read the name and contact lines without breaking them apart. If you are applying to employers who expect a photo, pick one of the templates that carries it as part of the design.

Can I change template later?

Yes. The template is only a presentation layer; what you write is stored separately and carries over intact when you switch.

Will the PDF match this preview?

Yes. The preview and the PDF come from the same component: A4 (210×297 mm), accented characters and a selectable text layer are all preserved.

Can I change the colour in the Engineering Plain template?

This template is deliberately colourless. If you want colour, pick one of the coloured variants in the same family.
