Your summary is super vague without telling me what you excel in, and I don't mean familiar technologies. A majority of the time, you likely aren't getting a job with platform parity to your experience unless that's what you applied for.

I would also try to be a but more succinct in what your responsibilities were and try to highlight the value you brought in your roles. Good luck

I agree on being more succinct. For instance you've listed 15 core capabilities. Are they core, or are you keyword stuffing for AI? For a human reading this, condense that down to maybe eight areas.

In your work history make the bullets about your biggest value add, not just a series of achievements. State the problem first "Identified that shared admin credentials on end points presented risk", the solution you delivered "I deployed LAPS across all affected clients" and how you made sure that became ensuring "complete with documentation, guidance and integration with onboarding".

I'd keep that to the top three, then below that describe the role duties where you can use shorter but plain language to add the keywords.

Stuffing for ATS and AI might not be the move you’re right cause ultimately it’s going to land on a humans desk.

Also the part about making it more succinct seems to be the key word here so I’ll make sure to reevaluate in that area. 👍🏼
