ATS-friendly CV template
Lisbon Serif headings, sans-serif text.
Lisbon pairs two typefaces: your name and the section headings in the Lora serif, the rest in Noto Sans. A burgundy rule runs above each heading, and the job title under your name is in italics. One column, standard headings, no photo.

What it suits
Applications through job portals and company career sites, where an applicant tracking system often reads the file before a person does. One column, standard headings and no photo keep the text in the order you wrote it.
The serif and sans-serif contrast gives an ATS-safe CV a little more character without leaving one column.
