What I'm looking for

I seek remote B2B or contract roles where I can lead cloud/NOC operations, improve incident response, mentor teams, and bridge technical delivery across EMEA.

I am a trilingual Senior Cloud & NOC Engineer with over 19 years' experience across NOC, ISP infrastructure, and Microsoft M365 ecosystems, delivering high-stakes technical support for global clients.

At Microsoft/TelePerformance I provided Tier 3 M365 escalations and led hybrid cloud troubleshooting, while improving first-call resolution through mentoring and workshops.

I have led 24/7 NOC operations, standardized workflows to reduce response times, and managed Big Data traffic monitoring for tier-1 banks—bringing reliable, autonomous delivery for remote B2B engagements.
