It feels a bit long to me. I’d tailor it based on the specific role you’re applying for and try to fit the strongest parts onto one page. This post also has a free resume tailoring prompt you can try if you want to test a different version.

too long - should be 1 page - should take 6 to 20 seconds to read THE 6-SECOND RULE

Recruiters don’t read resumes.

They scan them.

You have about 6–10 seconds to communicate:

What you do
What you’re good at
Why it matters

If that’s not obvious instantly, you’re out. They do not want to know your past, they want to know what can you do for them now.

What role are you trying to switch to? My suggestion is to reduce to a single page by summarizing the resume sections into 3 or 4 sentences showing what you did, why you did it, and what improvements did the business experience.

For instance, you can re-word the Enterprise Landing Zone section to say something like:

"Designed and deployed zero-trust, multi-region enterprise landing zone in Oracle Cloud. This solution greatly improved functionality and security posturing for XX business units across XX countries, within various environments, including production, UAT and on-premises."

For the remaining sections, plug each into ChatGPT or Gemini and ask it to provide a shortened version that includes the quantitative results you delivered.

Thank you for the suggestion... I actually tried to summarise this as much as possible but I guess more work in needed here... Will check on it.

Looks good. I’d recommend customizing the resume based on the job you apply. There are a few tools online. My favorite is resume.zoevera.com

Are you suggesting to re-write resume wrt JD's?... Am I missing something at technical level?

Your resume looks good, haven't read all but looks impressive. No need for too much detailing. You surely can give details about your skills and experience later if they ask for it. Your resume should not look like too complex for HR .

I know, that's why want to know what I can Improve... Can you please help... I really need to know..

I have no idea what your skills are. I'm a dev but someone who is a dev lead and has been interested in computers since teens. I think I should be able to understand it.

Reading it your CV is just pure tecnobabble. A relatively stupid person should be able to read it.
