Eric Foster
@ericfoster
I solve customer technology problems through hands-on IT support and technical sales.
What I'm looking for
I've supported customers at Quasar Data Center in a 24/7 environment, resolving Level 1–3 hardware, software, and environmental issues while meeting an under-two-minute response requirement. I handled 10–20 support interactions daily, onboarded customers, and installed and updated systems.
At Fortified 360, I manage Guardz and Syncro for customer protection, updates, and remote support, while providing onsite assistance as needed. My experience also includes infrastructure cabling, endpoint termination, technical sales, purchasing, and business development, and I enjoy translating technical issues into clear solutions that build customer trust.
