Tech resumes that show what you built and what changed
Engineering managers skim for ownership and impact. Sortie tailors each resume from your own record, keeps the skills list honest, and removes numbers you cannot back up, so your resume reads like the work you actually did.
Impact over keyword lists
A wall of tools tells a hiring manager very little. Sortie helps you write bullets that pair what you built or changed with its effect on speed, reliability or cost, drawn from your master record. The Modern template gives a clean layout that reads well for tech roles, with PDF and Word downloads.
Tailored to each posting, still true
Each tailored resume matches the language of the posting where your experience actually fits. Truth-checking keeps it honest: every line traces back to your record, and invented numbers are removed. If you want a second opinion on wording, compare drafts from Claude and Grok side by side without knowing which wrote which.
Jobs from company career pages
Daily job matches come from public company career pages and USAJOBS. When one looks right, Sortie drafts a tailored application into your approve queue, and nothing is sent until you approve it. The toolkit also covers interview prep with STAR answers, company research from the posting and a LinkedIn profile draft.
How Sortie helps
- Build your master record from past resumes and project notes.
- Review daily matches from public company career pages.
- Tailor a truth-checked resume in the Modern template.
- Approve each application, then prep for interviews with STAR answers.

Does Sortie add skills I do not have?
No. Skills and claims have to trace back to your master record, and anything that cannot is left out.
Will my resume work with applicant tracking systems?
The templates use plain section headings and real text, and you can download PDF or Word. No tool can promise how a specific system will read or rank your resume.
Can I compare different drafts?
Yes. You can compare drafts from Claude and Grok side by side without knowing which wrote which, then keep the one you like.
