What I'm looking for

I’m available for freelance projects involving SIP/VoIP troubleshooting, Cisco UC, SBC configuration, Zoom Contact Center, Zoom Phone, AWS/Linux environments, call routing, integrations, migrations, and L2/L3 technical support.

At Zoom Communications, I manage service delivery for Zoom Contact Center customers across APAC and EMEA and serve as a senior escalation point for complex issues. I contributed to a 15% reduction in escalation volume within the first quarter through proactive service management and improved response coordination.

At Cisco Systems – Professional Services, I delivered L2/L3 support for enterprise Cisco Collaboration environments, analyzed SIP and call-flow traces, and configured Cisco CUBE and SBC integrations. I also led UC upgrades and installations and produced HLD/LLD and implementation documentation.

Earlier, I supported enterprise voice and cloud communications at Cognizant Technology Solutions, Cisco Systems (CMS), Mitel Communications Pvt. Ltd., and Octel Networks Pvt. Ltd. I’m available for freelance projects involving SIP/VoIP troubleshooting, Cisco UC, SBC configuration, Zoom Contact Center and Zoom Phone, and AWS/Linux environments.
