@cephasakwasiosman
Skilled Computer Technician delivering reliable hardware repair, OS setup, and IT support.
What I'm looking for
I’m a skilled Computer Technician with hands-on experience diagnosing and repairing computer hardware, installing operating systems and software, removing viruses, and providing technical support. I’m comfortable supporting users both on-site and remotely using AnyDesk and TeamViewer.
My IT work includes installing, configuring, and upgrading Windows (7/8/10/11), setting up peripherals like printers and scanners, and handling network tasks such as LAN setup, router configuration, and internet troubleshooting. I also focus on security and uptime through system optimization, backups, and recovery.
Beyond core IT, I’ve coordinated real-world operations—collaborating with emergency partners during disaster response, leading community sensitization, and compiling situation reports. I’ve also supervised field data collection teams and supported tablet-based census work using CAPI, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and data quality.
