Technical support specialist focused on solving complex SaaS issues with clear, human communication.
What I'm looking for
I’m a technical support specialist who enjoys digging into complex problems—especially when they involve SQL, APIs, and system behavior—while keeping communication clear and human. Over the years, I’ve supported SaaS platforms, hosting environments, and enterprise systems across customer-facing troubleshooting and deeper backend investigations.
In my most recent role at Blackboard (Anthology), I handle escalated (L2) technical cases across multiple SaaS products (Learn, Collaborate, Data, SafeAssign). I investigate and troubleshoot using SQL and backend tools, replicate issues, document findings, and coordinate with L3/engineering teams to ensure expectations are set and resolution is handled properly.
Earlier, I supported enterprise education platforms while managing L1–L2 tickets, bug tracking, and escalations, using SQL to identify and fix data-related problems. I also supported Google Workspace (APIs, billing, hosting, HAR analysis) and helped drive operational improvements, including maintaining CSAT/CES above 90% and increasing CES from 75% to 87% in 4 weeks by coaching agents and improving reporting and KPI routines.
