Jeff Whyte
@jeffwhyte
I improve IT operations through incident response, implementation, and high-touch technical support.
What I'm looking for
I've supported IT operations, client implementations, and incident response across SpotOn, Autonomic, 365 Retail Markets, and Security Inspection.
At SpotOn, I onboard 10 to 20 client accounts each month, configure platforms with clients, resolve technical inquiries, and deliver customized virtual training sessions that drive adoption.
At Autonomic, I led high-priority incident triage with Ford Engineering, coordinated outage communications, and refined escalation protocols to improve response and resolution efficiency.
Across 365 Retail Markets and Security Inspection, I've led teams, deployed and supported kiosks, transitioned more than 2,000 units with under ten minutes of downtime each, and reduced call resolution times by 60% through streamlined support workflows.
