I’m a Technical Support Specialist who improves uptime, resolves incidents fast, and streamlines onboarding.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Technical Support Specialist with 10+ years resolving hardware, software, and network issues in corporate and high-volume environments. I consistently deliver 92% first-contact resolution, strong SLA compliance, and clear process documentation that reduces onboarding time in half.
In my system administrator and tech support role, I resolved 15+ tickets/day across hardware, software, and networking, while cutting L2 escalations by 35%. I managed updates and configurations across 50+ endpoints, maintaining 99.5% SLA with zero unplanned downtime over 12 consecutive months.
I also focus on practical support execution: I authored 20+ network and support procedure documents, installed and configured network printers and peripherals, and supported multi-site corporate clients without service interruptions. In L1 technical support, I improved MTTR to 8 minutes and maintained customer satisfaction 15% above team average (NPS).
Beyond infrastructure support, I bring complementary backend experience from a Junior Backend Developer background—developing REST APIs with Java and Spring Boot. I combine that software understanding with automation/AI tooling to optimize workflows and learn quickly, including ranking 8th out of 350 in the program cohort.
