What I'm looking for
I am a SaaS professional with several years of experience in technical operations, SaaS integrations, workflow optimization, incident management, and cross-functional collaboration. In my most recent role as a Support Specialist II at Lightspeed HQ, I worked with cloud-based commerce solutions, including POS systems and accounting integrations, helping identify complex system issues and coordinate resolutions across teams.
Throughout my career, I have developed strong skills in process improvement, escalation management, documentation, operational coordination, and problem-solving. As a Subject Matter Expert, I supported frontline teams by providing guidance, sharing troubleshooting workflows, improving documentation, and helping ensure that complex issues were handled efficiently. I also have over five years of experience using Zendesk, along with hands-on exposure to Jira, Salesforce, HubSpot, Intercom, Freshdesk, QuickBooks, Shopify, Zapier, and other SaaS platforms.
One of my strengths is understanding how systems, workflows, and teams work together. I enjoy identifying process gaps, organizing information, improving operational procedures, and collaborating with different stakeholders to achieve better outcomes. My experience working with international customers and teams has also strengthened my written communication, adaptability, and ability to work effectively in remote environments.
I am now looking to transition into a more operations-focused career, particularly in Business Operations, SaaS Operations, Business Process Improvement, Project Coordination, Implementation Operations, or Systems and Workflow Management. I am interested in opportunities where I can use my existing SaaS knowledge and operational experience to improve internal processes, support business efficiency, coordinate initiatives, and contribute to scalable business operations rather than focusing on frontline customer service or pure technical support.
My ideal opportunity is a fully remote position with an international or forward-thinking company that values ownership, continuous improvement, collaboration, and professional development. I am particularly interested in roles that offer opportunities to expand my skills in operations management, business systems, project coordination, process automation, and data-driven decision-making.
I bring a combination of technical understanding, operational awareness, documentation skills, and a continuous-improvement mindset. I am eager to apply these strengths in a new role where I can make a meaningful contribution to business performance while continuing to grow professionally.
