Why this exists

I built this because I had the same problem you do

I've worked in corporate and technology roles for years. But when I started looking for my next move, I suddenly felt… a bit lost.

I knew I was capable. I had the experience. But the job descriptions told a completely different story.

Everything was about platforms, frameworks, transformation, AI. Less about the actual work — more about layers of technical language.

And somewhere in that, I just couldn't see where I fit anymore.

It felt like I'd fallen behind overnight. Like the skills I'd been using every day suddenly didn't count.

So I stopped applying for roles I was probably perfectly suited for.

That didn't sit right with me. I wasn't ready to be defeated by tech-heavy language.

So I built a way to cut through the waffle and actually see what these roles were asking for — and whether my experience really matched or not.

That's how Tech IS You and the Role Fit tool came about.

Things shifted.

I could suddenly see how my experience mapped. I stopped second-guessing myself. And I started applying for roles I would have just scrolled past before.

That's why this exists.

Not just to decode the jargon — but to show you that you're not behind. The gap isn't your ability. It's how the work is being described.

So if you've been second-guessing yourself — and wondering if the tech world has moved on without you — this should help you see things differently.

If this resonates, feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn — I'd genuinely love to hear your experience. www.linkedin.com/in/sandra-cook-b9b71643
