FOR THE MOMENT BETWEEN

“What now?” “Here’s my next step.”

BUILT FOR REAL LIFE.
01 / A LITTLE STRUCTURE GOES A LONG WAY

A clear signal.
A practical next step.

Built for experienced software professionals navigating layoffs, career changes, or a fresh start.

01

Start with your story.

Gather your experience, achievements and practical constraints. Connect claims to real sources, and decide what you can stand behind.

EXPERIENCE → EVIDENCE
02

Make room for possibilities.

Explore three directions: similar work, something new, or a stepping-stone role. See the questions and missing evidence behind each.

OPTIONS → DIRECTION
03

Take one useful step.

Turn your chosen direction into a seven-day plan that fits your available time. Track what you try, then learn from what happens.

DIRECTION → ACTION
THREE DIRECTIONS. NO SINGLE RIGHT ANSWER.

Your next move
can look different.

You’ve built valuable experience. There’s more than one way to put it to work.

A sample of the approach, not a personalized recommendation. The app builds your plan around your available hours.

02 / FROM A DIRECTION TO A DAILY PRACTICE

One workspace.
A more focused job search.

When you’re ready to look outward, your local job-search workspace gives the moving parts a place to live.

YOUR JOB SEARCH, WITH INTENTIONPRODUCT CONCEPT / FICTIONAL DATA

Less scattered. More deliberate.

A place for the opportunities you want to explore.

To explore
Discover opportunities from public job-board APIs.

Your work, organized. Job discovery, CV tools, interview preparation and application tracking.

You stay in charge. The recovery flow opens the workspace; records aren’t automatically synced and applications aren’t submitted for you.

03 / A TOOLKIT THAT RESPECTS YOU

Your career is personal.
It should stay yours.

Thoughtful defaults. Clear boundaries.
Built to help you make your own decisions.

Look under the hood

Evidence before confidence.

Review sources, correct claims and see what’s still unknown. Recovery routes are possibilities to test, not hireability predictions.

Local first. Deliberately.

The app runs on your computer. Recovery sessions start in memory; disk saving is optional. The job-search workspace saves its files locally.

AI on your terms.

Core recovery works without AI. Optional recovery AI review needs configuration, an exact payload preview and your consent. Workspace AI has separate settings.

Open by design.

MIT-licensed code you can read, adapt and contribute to. No subscription is required; optional AI providers may charge for usage.

A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING

Who is ReboundOps for?

Experienced software professionals navigating a layoff, exploring a career change or trying to bring structure to their next move. It is a self-directed toolkit, not a recruitment agency or a promise of employment.

Do I need to pay or use an AI model?

The code is free under the MIT license. The core recovery flow needs no API key. Optional AI features require a separately configured provider and may incur provider charges.

Is this a hosted app?

This website introduces the project. The recovery app and job-search workspace run on your own computer. Follow the setup instructions below to start the integrated local demo.

Where does my information go?

Recovery sessions are memory-only by default, with optional unencrypted local disk saving and downloadable backups. Workspace CVs, reports and tracker data are local files. Configured AI features can send data to a provider; recovery AI review requires a separate payload preview and consent. This marketing site has no analytics, account signup or data collection form.

Will it apply to jobs for me?

No. It helps you explore, prepare and organize. You decide which opportunities to pursue and submit your own applications.

How mature is the project?

ReboundOps is an early local developer preview with automated engineering checks. External participant validation, independent accessibility evaluation and live recovery AI evaluation remain open. Feedback is welcome; career outcomes are not guaranteed.
