Application Support Lead and Sitecore/.NET developer improving CMS stability, performance, and ticket backlogs.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Application Support Lead and Sitecore/.NET developer with 9+ years of experience, focused on production stability and business continuity. I bring ITIL-based support leadership to reduce noise, improve responsiveness, and keep enterprise CMS platforms reliable.
In my current role, I’ve reduced open ticket backlog by 35% and improved ticket aging by 25% through SLA-aligned ITIL process improvements. I direct RCA for 25+ high-priority incidents, cut recurrence by 40%, enforce deployment governance, and achieve 100% defect-free releases across 20+ production deployments.
Previously, I enhanced Sitecore and development workflows by automating data pipelines with Azure Blob Storage and APIs (reducing manual effort by 15 hours/week) and building a React.js smartfield updater tool in Contentstack that cut editor workload by 50%. I also developed tooling like a Sitecore item cleanup tool (eliminating 5,000+ unused items) and a language version identifier tool to improve localization accuracy and reduce multi-site publishing errors.
