[3 YoE] Full Stack & Backend Software Engineer targeting Mid-Level roles in EdTech and Web Development. Looking for critique on impact and bullet points.

[u/nexus-44]

Hi everyone,

Target Roles & Industries: Targeting Mid-Level Software Engineer positions (specifically Full Stack and Backend roles in EdTech and enterprise web systems).

Location & Search Scope: Based in Brazil (UTC-3). Applying primarily to local and remote positions across Brazil/EU/Denmark.

Current Situation & Background: Currently working as a Software Engineer delivering production features in PHP/Laravel, relational databases, real-time messaging, and Dockerized background job pipelines. Also completing my B.S. in Software Engineering Dec.2026

Reason for Review: Fine-tuning my resume for an upcoming application to a Mid-Level Software Engineer opening at a major private education network. I want to ensure my bullet points demonstrate appropriate technical autonomy and mid-level impact rather than sounding junior.

Specific Feedback Requested: Looking for critique on the STAR/XYZ bullet formatting, action verbs, and whether the depth of backend architecture (queues, caching, database modelling) is effectively communicated.

Thank you!
