Sylvanus Ogaba
@sylvanusogaba
IT Support Officer and computer science graduate focused on reliable systems, data management, and guest-ready technology.
What I'm looking for
I’m a computer science graduate driven by a passion for the architecture of information—turning raw data into meaningful insight and communication through dependable systems and thoughtful processes. My academic path focused on data processing, database management, and information and communication technology (IT), building both technical proficiency and a strategic mindset for solving real-world information challenges.
In my work experience, I’ve supported end-to-end operations with an emphasis on accuracy, uptime, and user experience. I’ve handled customer-facing roles, trained teams, and improved service delivery through strong communication, problem-solving, and calm performance under pressure.
Most recently, as an IT Support Officer, I maintain and upgrade hardware/software (including POS, PBX telephony, PMS such as Opera, and IPTV), troubleshoot Wi‑Fi and in-room technology, and manage network administration with firewalls and security. I also strengthen information security through backups and PCI-DSS-compliant practices, handle user access management, manage IT inventory, and coordinate vendor support for system upgrades and repairs.
