Founder resume template
Startup energy with a project-forward layout.
Founder is the resume of someone who ships: a six-extra-large black name, your title in theme color, a circular portrait, and a full-width theme rule dividing a project-forward body. The summary sits behind a theme left border like a thesis statement. It tells investors, partners, and hiring managers one thing: this person builds.

Will Founder pass applicant tracking systems?
Single-column, real text, standard headings — parses cleanly. The project-forward ordering is a section-order choice only and does not affect extraction.
Every Cvyon template exports through your browser's print-to-PDF, so the text layer stays selectable and searchable — the thing parsers actually read. After downloading, run your resume through our free ATS grader to confirm it scores well before you apply.

Questions about the Founder template
I'm not a founder — can I still use Founder?
Absolutely. It is really a builder's template: product managers, makers, and anyone with projects worth leading with will feel at home.
Why are projects so prominent?
For founders and builders, shipped work is the credential. Founder puts ventures where they belong — near the top.
Is Founder too casual for corporate roles?
It is energetic rather than casual — the typography stays disciplined. For innovation and product roles inside corporates, it fits well.
