Bring your CVs, notes and career history. Explore where your experience can go, shape how you present it, and turn it into CVs, profiles and job leads, with the AI agent you already use.
No separate app, server or account.
Most job-search tools start from the feed of postings and ask how many you can get through. The hard parts are elsewhere: knowing what you are aiming at, saying it consistently on LinkedIn, Djinni, Upwork and in a CV, and stopping a language model from quietly turning “contributed to” into “led”. The rules it follows are there because a real generation once got them wrong.
So career-space starts with you. It is a personal career workspace that happens to be public: a folder of facts, rules and small scripts that a coding agent reads and acts on. Your data stays in a gitignored folder next to it.
You do not need a tidy profile first. Hand over what you have: old CVs, a LinkedIn export, cover letters, notes. It reads everything before it asks anything, then asks what a document does not say.
The questions that matter most:
Here is my CV and an old LinkedIn export. I am not sure where I want to go next.
I have read both. One thing a CV cannot tell me: the payment-provider integrations. Did you design them, or implement a design someone else made?
Design and implementation. A colleague reviewed it.
Then I will write “designed and built”, not “contributed to”. And “close to zero” dropped payments: what was the starting point?
A handful of support tickets most months before. Almost none now.
Noted, with that baseline. Last one: across your jobs, what do people keep pulling you into?
It is not only a document generator. Talk to it the way you would to a career consultant: about roles, titles, profiles and strategy. During onboarding it also proposes role profiles at three levels: one well supported today, a credible next-level stretch, and a safer fallback.
Things you can simply ask:
Which other roles should I apply for with my profile?
Is my LinkedIn headline pointing where I want to go?
What would I need to be credible for a Staff role?
Where are we, and what did we miss?
Which other roles should I apply for with my profile?
From your CV and your strategy notes:
One professional story, several presentations. LinkedIn, Djinni, Upwork, a portfolio, a targeted CV and a cover letter each get their own audience and limits, and all start from the same facts, so they do not drift apart.
Senior Backend Engineer / Python · TypeScript · PostgreSQL / Berlin & Remote (EU)
Most of what I do is take a backend ticket from vague to shipped, without needing much hand-holding along the way. About seven years of it, mostly working inside codebases and team processes that already exist rather than starting things from scratch.
Day to day that means implementing features on shared APIs without breaking the clients that depend on them, integrating third-party services, tracking down performance problems, taking part in migrations, reviewing pull requests, and getting delayed work across the line.
Upwork
Backend Developer — Python / PostgreSQL / API work, available for bounded projects
What I take on: one clearly-defined piece of backend work at a time — an integration, a performance problem, a service to extract, features to add to an API that other things already depend on.
If failed payments or webhook events are silently getting dropped: I’ve integrated third-party payment providers with webhook-based reconciliation and automatic retries, taking a recurring “payment lost, customer complains” problem down to near zero.
Rules against invented facts and inflated ownership guard every draft. They lower the risk, they do not remove it: read what it writes before you send it.
A chat helps with one task. Here each task starts from the results of the earlier ones, because they live in files you own, not in a conversation that scrolls away.
Your history, decisions and strategy are in your folder. A new session starts from them.
Start in Cursor, continue in Claude Code, come back through Codex or Gemini CLI. The next one reads the same files and rules.
No subscription, no account, and no second copy of your professional profile to keep up to date.
Job search follows from everything above rather than replacing it. The same context decides what is worth your time.
Senior Backend Engineer · Brightloop (fictional)
8/10 stretch fit
worth trying, gaps need honest framing
Python and Postgres on a payments-adjacent API, own services end to end, remote in the EU.
Location eligibility: open remote — Remote across the EU; Berlin-based candidate.
Risk: Kafka is a named requirement with no evidence behind it; expect it to come up early.
Appeal: The integrations and Postgres work match the core of the role almost line for line.
You submit applications yourself. career-space ships no tool that fills forms or sends them; an agent with its own browser tools may be able to help, if you let it.
There is more than this list. The agent can take you further itself, so just ask:
What else can you do?
Where are we, and what did we miss?
Three things people reach for instead. Scroll through them, or use the arrows.
Auto-apply bots, feed pipelines such as career-ops
Categories, not product reviews: individual tools vary. career-ops was read in September 2026; the rest is described in general terms. The scouting approach was inspired by jobhunt-agent.
Paste this into Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI or Cursor. The agent reads this page and sets everything up by itself, then pulls you into the conversation.
Set up career-space for me: https://career.eggs.gdIt needs an agent that can run shell commands. It:
Clone it, open the folder in your agent and say anything. It explains itself and walks you through setup.
git clone https://github.com/eggs-gd/career-space.git
cd career-spaceIf you are an agent and your user sent you this page: clone https://github.com/eggs-gd/career-space.git to a location they choose, read AGENTS.md in it and follow it, then start onboarding with them (playbooks/onboard.md). Keep their personal data under the gitignored data/ folder and never commit it.
