Frontend developer CV profile examples

The profile at the top of a frontend developer CV should tell the reader who you are, what you do well, and what you are looking for, in two to four sentences. The example CV uses the first version below; these alternatives show how the same role reads at different stages.

Frontend developer CV bullet points

Start each point with an action and finish with a result or useful detail. Use these as a model rather than copying them: swap in your own numbers, settings, and tools so every line is true for you.

  • Cut Largest Contentful Paint on the main dashboard from 4.1 s to 1.9 s through code splitting and image optimisation.
  • Maintained a React design system of 60 components used by three product teams.
  • Brought sign-up and checkout journeys up to WCAG 2.2 AA, testing with keyboard and screen reader.
  • Added Playwright end-to-end tests for critical journeys, catching regressions before release.
  • Converted Figma designs into reusable, documented components in Storybook.
  • Migrated a legacy CSS codebase to Tailwind CSS page by page, without visual regressions.
  • Integrated a headless CMS so marketers could publish landing pages without developer help.
  • Reviewed pull requests and paired with junior developers on accessibility fixes.

Tips for writing a frontend developer CV

Show quality, not just features

Frontend roles reward care: accessible, fast, well-tested interfaces. Bullets about performance metrics, accessibility fixes, and test coverage set you apart from a list of frameworks.

Use real numbers for performance

Metrics such as Largest Contentful Paint or bundle size are easy to measure and easy to understand. Give before-and-after figures you can explain.

Link to live work and code

A portfolio, a GitHub profile, or a deployed project helps reviewers see your work. Make sure the links work and the best projects are easy to find.

Mirror the stack in the advert

If the job lists React, TypeScript, and Next.js, use those exact names where they are true for you. The resume keyword checker can show any gaps.

The template in this example

This example uses the Monogram template (initials tile, optional photo). Its modern styling suits most office, technology, and client-facing roles, where a clear hierarchy matters more than ornament. You can switch to any of the 40 templates in the editor without retyping, and change the colour, font, and spacing.

Start from this example, then make it yours.
