A template for developers who build end-to-end from database to UI.
Full-Stack Developer with 5 years of experience building production applications from database to UI. Specialise in React, Next.js, Node.js, and PostgreSQL. Shipped products used by 200K+ users.
Full-stack developers need to demonstrate depth on both sides. Recruiters want to see that you can build a React front-end and a Node.js API with equal confidence. Show projects where you owned the entire vertical slice — from database schema to deployed feature. Companies like Stripe and Intercom value engineers who can context-switch between layers without losing quality.
React or Next.js, Node.js or Express, TypeScript, PostgreSQL or MongoDB, GraphQL, Docker, CI/CD, cloud platforms (AWS or GCP), and testing frameworks (Jest, Cypress). If you have experience with microservices architecture or system design, include those — they signal senior-level thinking.
Listing too many technologies without depth indicators. "React, Angular, Vue, Svelte" suggests you know none of them well. Instead, show depth: "Built React front-end components for messenger product used by 25K+ businesses." Also avoid frontend-heavy or backend-heavy CVs when applying for full-stack roles — balance your bullet points across both layers.
One to two pages maximum. Include your GitHub profile prominently. Use a "Tech Stack" section that groups skills logically (Frontend, Backend, Database, DevOps). Keep bullet points achievement-focused with specific metrics. Mention open-source contributions if any.
