I resolve complex customer and technical issues across fintech, IT support, and retail environments.
What I'm looking for
I've supported CleverCards customers with card activation, account access, payment faults, and verification issues, owning cases from first contact through confirmed resolution. I also helped clear 200+ cases while maintaining clear, professional communication in a high-volume fintech queue.
At Otonomee, I delivered remote IT support for multiple Irish county councils, diagnosing infrastructure and software issues while coordinating with on-site engineers. At Pharmacy Hay Manar, I combine front-of-house support with IT management, resolving customer concerns, training staff, and keeping workstations, networks, POS systems, and support tickets running reliably.
I've also built and deployed live Flutter, React, MySQL, and AI-powered systems used by pharmacy staff, bringing hands-on technical depth to every support conversation. I'm looking to bring that end-to-end customer care and troubleshooting approach to subscription and membership support in travel and media.
