How ATS keyword matching works

Applicant tracking systems rank applications by how well they match the job description. Paste the job ad and the generator finds the role keywords it contains — plus any terms it repeats — weaves them into your text and shows which are covered. Click a missing keyword to add it, but only if you genuinely have that skill.

Software Engineer keywords recruiters search for

JavaScript TypeScript Python Java React Node.js REST APIs microservices SQL AWS CI/CD Docker unit testing system design Agile

Hi there, I'm a software engineer with 5 years in TypeScript and React. I'm interested in Senior Software Engineer roles at Northwind — recently I rebuilt a checkout service that cut p95 latency by 40%. I'd love to connect and learn about your team!

Tips for a connection note that gets replies

  • Lead with who you are and why you are writing in the first line.
  • Quantify one achievement — numbers stand out to recruiters and to ATS parsers.
  • Mention something specific about the person or company; generic notes get ignored.
  • Proofread names and company spelling — it is the most common mistake.
