Problem appears when selecting and copying text of work position from PDF of resume.

Capital I's are copied as small i's so instead of copying: ENGINEER we get ENGiNEER, which looks weird.
I think this is a very important topic to fix as a lot of companies are converting pdfs to plain text and this simply looks unprofessional, in my opinion the copied text should be exactly the same as you have written in your cventry so: Engineer

How to reproduce:
Put the following code in the resume.tex

\cvsection{Experience}
\begin{cventries}
	\cventry
	{}
	{Engineer}
	{}
	{}
	{} 
\end{cventries}

As far as I know the problem is not in my computer as the resume posted in the README of the project suffers from the same problem.

If anyone knows how to resolve please let me know.

I found this is caused by scshape (small caps).

As a workaround, you could remove it from awesome-cv.cls, e.g.

change

\newcommand*{\entrypositionstyle}[1]{{\fontsize{8pt}{1em}\bodyfont\scshape\color{graytext} #1}}

to

\newcommand*{\entrypositionstyle}[1]{{\fontsize{8pt}{1em}\bodyfont\color{graytext} #1}}
