40%Hard skills only — frameworks, languages, tools, certifications. We weight a senior-level Rust mention 4× higher than a casual mention buried in a hobby project.
Every role gets an instant 0–100 score against your CV across five dimensions — so the only roles you apply to are the ones you can actually land.
Senior Full-Stack Engineer
Stripe · Remote US
Five weighted signals, audited per role. The breakdown is visible — you see exactly why a job is an 87, not a 92.
Hard skills only — frameworks, languages, tools, certifications. We weight a senior-level Rust mention 4× higher than a casual mention buried in a hobby project.
Years in role plus domain depth. Five years at a payments startup beats two years at three random places when the target role is Stripe-shaped.
Compares listed band against your last comp and your stated minimum. Roles that under-pay you 30%+ get capped at 70 — no surprises.
We won’t score you a 95 for a US-EST role if you’re in Singapore. Hard-blocks for visa-restricted roles, soft-discounts for awkward overlap.
Founder bios, blog posts, GitHub, tech radar. We flag mismatches early — e.g. a CV full of Go applying to a Rails-only shop.
Three reasons keyword filtering keeps showing you mismatches — and why a scored CV-vs-JD comparison surfaces the right ones.
Type “Senior Backend” and you miss every “Staff Engineer · Platform” listing — even when they want the exact same stack and seniority.
Job descriptions over-list requirements by 30–50%. Recruiters expect candidates to hit ~60% of the bullets. Scoring already accounts for that.
A backend engineer who can ship product wins 70-point matches in Platform Eng, DevOps, and Infra. Keyword search hides those.
Don’t over-think it. The bands map to a clear action you take immediately.
Apply with confidence — your CV maps cleanly to the role. Don’t over-tailor; a light cover letter is enough.
One or two gaps. Bump your CV — the AI suggests the exact bullets to rewrite — and you’re in.
Mismatch on something structural. Save the application energy for roles where you’re in real contention.
We don’t pad scores to feel good. If you’re a 72, you see a 72.

Yes. Given the same CV and the same job description, the score is reproducible. The AI signals (culture, stack) use a low-temperature pass to stay stable across re-runs.
Instantly. Add a missing skill or rewrite a weak bullet and every relevant score updates within a second.
Because no real candidate is a perfect 100 — salary bands, time zones, and seniority gaps mean even a strong fit usually scores 87–94. Anything 85+ is apply-worthy.
