Summary

Six years of security operations and penetration testing in enterprise environments. I have worked across incident response, threat hunting and secure software lifecycle. I follow a finding through to remediation rather than leaving it in a report.

Who it suits

mid level, senior roles
Applications made through a careers portal
Most kinds of application

Layout: International ATS layout
ATS compatibility: Excellent
Photo: No photo

The layout is built on a single-column flow where the visual order matches the text order, so applicant tracking systems read the document as it stands.

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

Single column, international application layout — clearest for parsers. The safest structure for international application systems: name and contact in the first block, section headings in underlined capitals, no graphic elements at all. It carries the lowest risk of parsing error in global ATS platforms.

Layout

How the Remote Split template is built

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

Centred details, single column, no graphics

The safest structure for international application systems: name and contact in the first block, section headings in underlined capitals, no graphic elements at all. It carries the lowest risk of parsing error in global ATS platforms.

Typography

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

Section headings

Section headings are distinguished by weight alone, leaving no decorative element on the page.

Use of colour

Colour appears only in fine rules and headings; the rest of the page stays white.

Density

Line spacing is balanced — the middle ground between readability and fit for most applications.

How skills are presented

Skills are listed on one line separated by dots. It is the safest form for keyword matching.

When not to choose this template

Applications where a visual portfolio is expected in the document itself
Applications where the employer mandates its own template
Very long career histories running past three pages

Frequently asked questions

About the Remote Split template

Is the Remote Split template ATS-friendly?

ATS compatibility for this template is rated “excellent”. The layout is built on a single-column flow where the visual order matches the text order, so applicant tracking systems read the document as it stands.

Does the Remote Split 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 Remote Split template?

Yes. The accent colour control in the editor applies to this template too — pick any of the six presets.
