How long should be a developer resume with 7 yoe?

How long should be a Senior Developer resume with 7 years of experience? I keep getting calls from Amazon, Google etc. Now i want to go all out applying for jobs. Want to apply to Fb, Apple, Expedia, Uber, PayPal, ebay etc. I have switched 5 roles. How long should be my resume? Any tips?

If you're not Elon Musk, one is page is all you get.

Elon's resume can fit in 1page. E.g. https://novoresume.com/career-blog/elon-musk-one-page-resume However, when others make your resume for free, you don't really need a resume anymore.

With every year of experience my resume just gets shorter. Recruiters spend 1 minute browsing it anyways. Mention your education, companies/roles you’ve worked on/at, major technologies that are still relevant to you and would be interesting to you, perhaps biggest things you are proud of. One page.

Resume is (think of it as 'by definition') one page. Single page. 1 page. One side of one sheet of A4 or letter size paper.

5 roles in 7 years? Job hopping much?
