AI Resume Generator

Developed an end-to-end AI Resume Generator that automatically rewrites, formats, and updates resumes in real time based on job descriptions. The platform is built with Next.js for the frontend, using Zustand for global state management and PostgreSQL for storing user profiles, templates, and resume data. The backend is powered by Django and a custom middleware layer that communicates with Ollama AI models to craft intelligent prompts, generate tailored resumes, detect formatting changes, and apply edits instantly. Implemented secure authentication and validation within Django, integrated MinIO for file storage, and added a JWT-based demo mode with rate-limited resume generation for unauthenticated users.
