What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote international opportunities in application support management, IT service delivery, technical customer support, customer operations, or process improvement, where I can combine technical problem-solving, customer experience, AI, and continuous improvement.

At efiport GmbH, I support business-critical internal applications for Frankfurt School of Finance & Management, owning incidents through resolution and building KPI visibility, SOPs, and knowledge documentation that strengthen service quality.

Across 12+ years in technical support, customer operations, quality, procurement, and team leadership, I’ve led complex escalations, improved workflows, coached teams, and partnered with stakeholders across international environments. I’m especially motivated by opportunities where technical problem-solving, customer experience, process improvement, and AI-assisted knowledge management create smarter support operations.
