I personally would recommend removing your phone number and email from the public copy for now.

Reduce the spacing between your bullet points, to much wasted space.
Try and get it to fit all on a page if you can (its understandable if you really can't though).

That's the formatting I was mentioning, was thinking that that might just be Google formatting something that looked better in Word.

Doing nothing other than cleaning up the header and removing white space, we get to one page this easily...
-
There are no overall job titles or descriptions. Those would help as it is unclear what your job role was meant to be in many of these.

There is a lot of stuff on there that I'd want to avoid unless you are looking for a specialty hardware management job... like hardware testing, RMA paperwork, etc. Those are legit tasks that are done, but not things you want to highlight or mention. Especially on the resume.

Yeah it makes his latest job look like a step or even two backwards.

Did a bit of a rewrite. Not knowing any of the jobs, all I can really do is remove stuff, not add stuff. If we talked about it, I bet we could easily find highlights to add.
Pretty much I eliminated the things you want to avoid mentioning as they didn't look good. And I removed redundant stuff and old stuff that didn't matter and anything that was filler. You could do a lot to clean up wording, capitalization, etc.
But with a quick eye, you can see how much a hiring manager would have seen as filler from the original document to this one.

I dont see a file upload button on the toolbar and I cant drag and drop either. It says I dont have enough privileges to upload a file.
There is no file upload feature. File uploads cause a lot of complexity. You can do something like post images or most people link to a Google Docs file. That works pretty well.
Incorrect. There is a file upload feature. You simply choose to have it disabled. For perfectly valid reasons, but still your choice.

Calm your panties. It's a resume that is public shared via Google drive link. Pretty common and he can remove access at any point
