What It Is
A guy got laid off, built an AI job search system on Claude Code, evaluated 740+ job offers with it, and landed a Head of Applied AI role. Then he open-sourced the entire thing.
It’s called career-ops. One slash command. Full pipeline.
Paste a job URL → get back a structured A-F evaluation, an ATS-optimized PDF tailored to that exact role, salary research, interview prep, and a tracker entry. All in one shot. No spreadsheets. No copy-pasting. No spray-and-pray.
What’s Inside
- 14 skill modes: evaluate, scan, pdf, batch, apply, deep research, negotiation scripts, LinkedIn outreach
- Portal scanner pre-loaded with 45+ companies — Anthropic, OpenAI, ElevenLabs, Mistral, Cohere, Stripe, Retool, Vercel, Decagon
- 19 search queries across Ashby, Greenhouse, Lever, Wellfound, Workable
- ATS-optimized PDF generation via Playwright with Space Grotesk + DM Sans
- Go terminal dashboard built with Bubble Tea to browse your pipeline
- Batch mode that evaluates 10+ offers in parallel using Claude sub-agents
- Interview Story Bank that accumulates STAR+Reflection stories across evaluations until you have 5-10 master answers for any behavioral question
- Auto-fill for application forms
Philosophy
Career-ops is explicitly NOT a spray-and-pray tool. It’s a filter. The system literally refuses to recommend applying to anything scoring below 4.0/5. The whole point is to find the few offers worth your time out of hundreds, not to flood recruiters with garbage.
It evaluates fit by reasoning about your CV vs the JD. Not keyword matching.
Because it’s all built on Claude Code skills, you can ask Claude to rewrite the system itself — “Change the archetypes to backend roles.” “Add these 10 companies.” It reads the same files it uses, so it knows exactly what to edit.
