This CV works because it leads with what matters most in backend engineering: systems that run reliably at scale. The summary is one sentence that tells you exactly what this person does and at what level.

Every bullet point has a number. Not vague claims like "improved performance" but specific outcomes: "reduced p99 latency from 340ms to 45ms" or "handles 12,000 requests per second." Backend hiring managers scan for this. If you built something, say how big it got.

The skills section groups technologies by purpose rather than listing them alphabetically. A hiring manager can immediately see this person knows Go, works with PostgreSQL, and has production Kubernetes experience. That's a complete picture in three lines.

Notice there's no objective statement, no list of soft skills, no "passionate about technology" filler. Just the work and the results.
