Raisa Siles
@raisasiles
Senior technical support specialist focused on user-first troubleshooting and documentation.
What I'm looking for
I’m a problem solver and fast learner with 10+ years in technical support, driven by one belief: “the most important value for any software product is the user end.” I enjoy guiding people on how to use software properly, applying best practices that reduce friction and improve outcomes.
In my current role as a Sr. Technical Support Specialist at Nice Actimize, I support a Financial SAAS system for detecting fraud and money laundering in banking transactions. I handle troubleshooting and debugging, report and isolate bugs with clear steps to reproduce, and work with tools like ServiceNow, Jira, Linux, AWS, Splunk, and Grafana.
Alongside that, I lead support teams as a Support Teams Manager at kiwIT Bolivia (Upwork remote). I organize onboarding and initial tasks for agents and virtual assistants, coordinate schedules and workflows, and bring structure through tools like Trello, CRMs, Google G-suite/Spreadsheets, and strong time management.
Earlier, as a Support Engineer at DataSunrise, I supported bank customers with a homogeneous database security solution deployed in cloud and on-prem environments. Before that, I built deep experience from Technical Support Specialist Tier 2, including manual testing (authentication, users management), incident participation with log analysis, and DevOps support such as gathering reports and creating bash scripts for manual fixes.
