If this post doesn't work, try and find a good recruiter (they are rare but they do exist). Make a direct call and try and get a meeting. They will charge a 20% fee on the employer side which can lower the salary you could otherwise negotiate up to, but compared to the current alternatives that sounds like a near non-issue. Get them to help you with tweaking the resume for the specific roles and make direct calls to sell you for a role they are trying to fill, they generally will have more inside information than anyone here and you'll have a far better chance than through resumes. If you get a sense the recruiter you try isn't helping, try another one. A lot of people hate the spammy push approach of recruiters, but some of them are really great when you're the pull service. Get advice on the best way to sell why you're experienced talent applying for positions that don't match the resume. If I saw this resume for a general software engineer or junior engineer position my alarm bells would go off, I'd expect someone who had those skills to be applying for senior engineers or architect. When you list those skills for a junior or intermediate programming position people assume that you've covered them in a course in university and not much else.
