Show HN: AI Version of My Resume

A developer built an AI-powered interactive version of their resume to share with recruiters instead of a traditional PDF.

A developer going by the handle ricky300300 posted an HN Show HN thread on August 5, 2026, sharing an AI-powered interactive profile built as a personal experiment to replace the traditional resume in job applications.

Per the Hacker News post, the creator's goal is to stand out from other candidates by giving recruiters an AI interface to engage with, rather than a static document. The post describes it as an "AI Profile" of the author themselves, intended to be shared directly with recruiters in place of a conventional resume.

The post is light on technical specifics — no details are given about the underlying model, hosting stack, or what the interface actually allows a recruiter to do, such as asking questions or generating summaries. The author framed it as an experiment and solicited feedback from the HN community, asking what people thought of the approach. At the time of posting, the submission had 1 point and no comments.

The broader idea of AI-augmented personal branding and interactive resumes has gained traction among developers looking to differentiate themselves in competitive hiring markets. Approaches have ranged from chatbots trained on a candidate's work history to dynamic portfolio sites that generate personalized responses. This project appears to sit in that space, though without further technical detail from the source it is not possible to characterize the implementation more precisely.

No company, funding, product name, or team beyond the solo author is mentioned in the source. Whether the project will be released publicly or developed further is not indicated in the post.
