Jamal Porter
@jamalporter
I'm an IT Support Technician who fixes what won't cooperate.
What I'm looking for
I’m the person you want on the other end of the line when something breaks. With a B.S. in Computer Science and a focus on Endpoint & Support, I stay calm, communicate clearly, and get issues resolved start to finish.
In field work and dispatch, I diagnose and fix Windows PC, laptop, and peripheral failures on-site, including Wi‑Fi and network connectivity. I’ve supported Microsoft 365 / Office 365 environments and worked with Windows Server, Linux, and AWS.
I’m also fluent in infrastructure and POS systems end to end—TCP/IP, DHCP/DNS, and network setup—so the fix actually holds. I use remote-desktop tools and SCCM to walk non-technical users back to calm, while logging interactions in Salesforce and Compass and escalating the hard cases with reproduction steps.
On the side, I run my networking own software company and build/support websites and internal tools for small-business clients. I bring a builder’s mindset to support work—shipped a CRM, a 3D product configurator, and an e-commerce store—backed by Java, JavaScript, Python, SQL, React, Spring, Angular, Git, and Docker.
