Have you actually tried tailoring your resume to a specific job role? Or are you just speculating that people will find you on Google and not consider you?

Yes. My resume is under version control. I have six versions I've evolved over time to address very specific job categories.

My resume is generated with a script that filters out experience and skills on keywords, depending on the target job offer.
And a 6-page resume is not a resume anymore, it's a biography. Keep it under one page, 3 or 4 job experiences max.
My problem is that I can't dumb-down my resume. One Google search and most of what I've done, going back thirty years, is all there. I can't get it all deleted. At some level, why would you want to? For example, there's a 1985 paper on robotics I presented at an ACM conference (while still an engineering student) that still shows-up on a search.
