Daud Durrani
@dauddurrani
Technical operations leader with 10+ years in IT support, repair, and KPI-driven performance management.
What I'm looking for
I am a technical and operations professional with over 10 years of combined experience in IT systems, technical repair, and KPI-driven performance management. I specialize in troubleshooting Windows-based environments, Active Directory administration, hardware diagnostics, and process improvement.
Throughout my career I have led teams and driven measurable results — from ranking in the top estimators at Classic Collision to reducing vehicle repair turnaround times as a Parts Manager. I consistently meet CSI and gross profit targets while mentoring peers on KPI performance.
My technical background includes Microsoft Active Directory, Windows Server, VMware, SQL Server, CCTV networking, custom PC builds, and malware/boot sector repair. I have hands-on experience across multiple Windows and some Linux environments, and I’ve delivered technical consultations for networking and AV systems.
I bring a customer-focused approach, strong leadership, and proven process optimization skills to roles in IT, technical support, or electronics-focused operations. I am driven to apply my blend of technical expertise and operational management to improve efficiency and customer satisfaction.
