AI Resume Filters Can't Read Between the Lines

Picture this: A Resume bullet says: "built X system that served 1M+ users at " A job description says: "implement metrics, logging, and dashboards." The AI sees no overlap and disqualifies the candidate. But any engineer who shipped to a million users (heck anyone who has built anything for any business) has absolutely built observability infrastructure, they just didn't waste resume space saying so. Sometimes they handcrafted the dashboards, sometimes they used already present tooling like Mixpanel and other observability platforms with built in dashboarding capabilities.
