Technical Support Specialist with a passion for problem-solving.
What I'm looking for
I am a Technical Support Specialist with over 3 years of experience in providing exceptional support for SaaS and platform products across fintech, ed-tech, and gaming sectors. My expertise lies in L1/L2 support, bug triage, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to resolve complex user issues. I take pride in my ability to debug APIs, analyze product behavior, and maintain clear documentation, which drives self-service and product improvements.
Throughout my career, I have consistently achieved high satisfaction scores and resolution rates. At Stanbic IBTC Bank, I delivered L2 technical support for financial APIs, achieving a 98% issue resolution rate within SLA. My role at Shyntech as a MERN Developer allowed me to lead a team in supporting SaaS applications, where I introduced automated testing that reduced production regressions by 30%. I am passionate about gaming and the creator economy, and I thrive in remote, fast-paced environments where clear communication and structured problem-solving are essential.
