@owokasamson
I resolve IT support issues, improve infrastructure reliability, and lead product improvements using customer feedback.
What I'm looking for
I've provided hands-on IT support at Leapsoft Limited in partnership with LASEMA, resolving workstation, network, operating system, and business-application issues. My preventative maintenance and repairs contributed to a 70% reduction in support incidents while maintaining 98% user satisfaction.
I install, test, and troubleshoot Windows, Linux, Windows Server, Active Directory, VMware, and network environments. I also planned and coordinated a Windows Server 2012 to Windows Server 2016 data migration and maintained detailed configuration, maintenance, and technical-diagram documentation.
At Xolani Health, I work with customers, vendors, partners, and technical teams to investigate product issues, analyze feedback, clarify sprint requirements, and improve customer outcomes. I use data to prioritize problems and support infrastructure planning, lifecycle management, and performance optimization.
My background also includes leading multidisciplinary teams at Code Club Africa and heading web application and website delivery at Deepblue Technologies. I bring root-cause-focused troubleshooting, clear technical communication, independent remote work, and continuous improvement to technical and product teams.
