Akeem Tanimu
@akeemtanimu
I resolve technical customer issues and turn friction into product insights.
What I'm looking for
At GemCommerce, I handle 200+ monthly customer tickets across live chat, account updates, billing, troubleshooting, and escalations, maintaining a 93% QA score and 2.3-minute average response time.
I've supported global B2C and enterprise customers remotely across phone, email, and chat. At Optix Limited, I achieved a 95%+ resolution rate, used Zendesk, Jira, and CRM platforms, and was named Employee of the Month for reliability and high performance.
I bridge customer friction and product teams through technical triage, clear documentation, and actionable issue escalation. I also create customer-facing tutorial videos, provide bilingual support with AI assistance, and use automation tools such as n8n, Custom GPTs, and LLM debugging to improve workflows.
Earlier at Premium Steel and Mines Limited, I provided first-contact IT support, maintained a 90% first-contact resolution rate, and reduced issue resolution time by 20% through improved internal documentation.
