Technical Support Specialist at Shift4, resolving merchant issues across payment integrations, DNS, and connectivity while maintaining 25+ customer-focused help articles.
What I'm looking for
At Shift4, I resolve phone and email cases for merchant accounts across POS software, the Lighthouse web portal, payment gateway integrations, caching, and connectivity. I use logs and database queries to investigate issues, then escalate them with reproduction steps Engineering can act on.
I also wrote and maintain 25+ knowledge-base articles based on the questions customers actually ask, helping reduce repeat tickets. I onboard merchants over screen share and explain setup, reporting, and technical issues in plain language.
Before Shift4, I handled chat and email support for online sellers at Teleperformance on Stripe-related questions, including payouts, invoicing, billing, disputes, and integration issues. At EXL, I monitored live performance for a 200+ agent support operation and tracked service metrics on a KPI dashboard.
With CiudadFuria, I built and host a web platform with a mobile app, an analytics panel, and a public site. I configured its DNS and custom domains, deployed it on Vercel and Cloudflare Pages with Supabase, and traced two silent data failures to their root cause.
