u/Dizzy_Wolverine_4685

I’m a backend engineer with 5+ years of experience across three Banking and Fintech companies, working mainly with Java, distributed systems, microservices, AWS, databases, and event-driven systems.

I’ve been applying to SWE/Backend roles but getting a lot of rejections, and I’m struggling to understand why.

Would really appreciate a blunt, detailed review of the CV.

Specifically:

• Does my experience look technically strong enough for 5+ YOE?
• Is my first company’s work too domain-heavy / difficult to understand?
• Do the bullets demonstrate enough technical depth and ownership?
• What would make you reject this CV at screening?
• Am I targeting the wrong level of roles?

Please be critical , I’m trying to understand what is actually hurting my chances.

Thanks!
