What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role that values innovation and continuous professional growth, where I can combine secure systems engineering with business-focused technical analysis—leading initiatives end to end, mentoring teams, and driving reliable operations.

I’m a dedicated Senior Systems Engineer with 10+ years delivering secure, stable desktop and server environments across Windows, Linux, and MAC. I specialize in deployment and support, with hands-on administration of Windows Servers, Linux systems, and virtualized platforms.

I lead with meticulous patch management for both Windows and Linux to maintain strong security postures, and I manage end-to-end change from assessment through documentation and implementation. I’ve also supported third-party applications for business use, understanding both systems and business analysis from inception to completion.

In my current role as a Business Technical Analyst at Optimum Mobile, I provide multi-level support for contact center operations—triaging issues from chats, emails, and phone calls, monitoring IVR and chat performance, and using ServiceNow to manage incidents and requests by severity. I analyze chatbot interactions and customer journeys, develop reports to identify trends, and create clear operational documentation for business and IT teams.

Previously at ITEL International, I managed patching for 5000+ systems and guided patch-management teams using ManageEngine Endpoint Central for deployment, imaging, and mobile device management. I’ve also administered Active Directory, DHCP, DNS, virtualization infrastructure (Windows Hyper-V and VMware), and cloud environments (MS Azure and AWS), while mentoring junior administrators and overseeing projects with precision and efficiency.
