Hey self-hosters!

I’ve been building an open source, privacy-first resume builder that helps job seekers generate ATS-friendly resumes by parsing both a job description and their profile/CV. The idea is to assist with tailoring resumes to each opportunity, something job seekers often struggle to do manually.

What it does:

  • Parses a job description and Profile
  • Uses LLMs (Gemma 3 1B via Ollama) to generate a tailored resume via Handlebars templates

-Outputs a clean, ATS-compatible .docx using Pandoc

It’s built for local use, no external API calls — perfect for those who value privacy and want full control over their data and tools.

I’m currently:

-Setting up MLflow to test and optimize prompts and temperature settings

-Working on Docker + .env config

-Improving the documentation for easier self-hosting

Why I think this matters to the selfhosted community:

Beyond resume building, this flow (LLM + markdown templates + Pandoc) could be adapted for many types of automated document creation. Think contracts, proposals, reports: tailored, private, and automated.

I’d love feedback, ideas, and especially help with config, Dockerization, front-end, and docs to make it easier for others to spin up.
