Elliot Colley
@elliotcolley
I diagnose complex systems faults, manage technical escalations, and improve data operations.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently supporting academic operations at SmartTalk and ODIN English Academy in Hanoi, where I manage performance data, digital tracking systems, compliance documentation, and technical support for online learning tools.
Previously, at Lancaster BMW and Ames Motor Group, I diagnosed complex electrical, software, hardware, and wiring faults using BMW ISTA, Nissan Consult, and systematic diagnostic logic. I managed Tier 2/3 escalations with manufacturer Level 3 engineering teams, performed software updates and calibrations, and documented root causes for customers and service teams.
Across more than nine years as a Master Technician and six years in data administration, I've built a practical approach to log analysis, queue management, auditing, and regulatory compliance.
I'm also completing a BSc in Computer Science at Aston University, building knowledge of data structures, systems logic, CLI tools, REST APIs, JSON, and ticket workflows. I enjoy translating technical complexity into clear next steps for non-technical colleagues and stakeholders.
