NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a BEng Computer Engineering graduate with hands-on experience across network infrastructure, security, and technical support. I focus on keeping systems reliable by combining monitoring, troubleshooting, and structured performance tracking.
In my current role as a Network and System Performance Analyst at HIS Towers Nigeria Limited, I monitor fuel levels and daily diesel generator consumption in real time to detect abnormal usage, prevent outages, and support cost control. I also update daily fuel/performance metrics using Microsoft Excel trackers and coordinate quickly with Field Service Engineers to keep sites active and operational.
Previously, as an ICT Officer II with Kaduna State Government House (DICT), I configured, installed, and maintained network devices (routers, switches, and access points), administered user accounts and permissions, and supported ICT infrastructure projects. Earlier, I worked in network infrastructure security and as an IP Network Specialist, installing Mikrotik/Ubiquiti access points, maintaining fiber optic systems, configuring Huawei IP phones, and managing Active Directory access—backed by CCNA and Google networking/cybersecurity certifications.
