As far as I can see, it's the exact same as the one listed in this[0] article, and without having seen your CV design, I guess it's completely coincidental. [0] https://zety.com/blog/software-engineer-resume https://zety.com/blog/software-engineer-resume

    As mentioned on our examples page, they are NOT recommended - parsers can not read graphics.

Oh no rswemuc! I'm so sorry. It's the top result for 'software engineer resume' on Google, and the top resume shown by Zety.com -- I assumed it was their design, copyright, ownership. This is your design and they ripped it off? I'm very sorry to say that it is an ineffective design. To understand why, you can see my interview with the CEOs and technical experts from the top 5 resume parsing companies here: https://www.theladders.com/career-advice/resume-parser-ceos-advice-for-your-resume https://www.theladders.com/career-advice/resume-parser-ceos-... Thanks!
