Changing shape of player jump path

I'm working on making a basic jump but am looking for specific behavior in the jump. I'm using a Character controller and this is my current basic code:

 void FixedUpdate () {
 
         //Basic Movement
         move.x = Input.GetAxis("LeftJoystickHorizontal") * speed;
         
         if (con.isGrounded)
         {
             move.y = 0;
             if (Input.GetButtonDown("AButton"))
             {
                 isJumping = true;
                 move.y = jump;
             }
         }
         
         if(useGravity)
            move.y -= gravity * Time.deltaTime;
         
         con.Move(move * Time.deltaTime);
     }

In the inspector: jump = 15 gravity = 50 speed = 10

I can modify these values to change the size of this jump, and the speed it's executed, but I want the physical shape to change, the parabola.

I put a line renderer on the player so you can see the current shape of the jump.
