The Art of the Curated Resume

How to stand out in a global remote job market.

At PiperPiperPiper, we look for “artisan” roles. These aren’t your typical high-volume, low-context job postings. These are roles that require a specific craft and a specific mindset. Your resume needs to reflect that.

Stop the “Spray and Pray”

Sending 100 identical resumes is a losing game. For high-fidelity roles, sending one deeply researched application is more effective than sending a thousand.

Highlight the “Remote Stack”

It’s not just about Go, Python, or React. It’s about:

  • Self-Management: Proof that you can ship without a manager breathing down your neck.
  • Clear Writing: Since writing is the primary way you’ll interact with your peers.
  • Infrastructure Skills: Understanding how your code gets to the user (Docker, CI/CD, Terraform).

Show, Don’t Just Tell

A link to a well-maintained GitHub repository or a technical blog post is worth ten bullet points about “being a team player.”

The best companies aren’t looking for a “resource”; they are looking for a partner in their mission. Write your resume like you’re starting a partnership.
