About

98% SLA adherence | 4.9 CSAT | 500+ incidents managed per month per head I am a Senior Technical Support professional with 5+ years of experience driving high-availability support across Cloud, AI-driven, and IoT platforms. I manage P1/P2 incidents, lead bridge calls during outages, and handle stakeholder escalations to ensure business continuity. Beyond incident resolution, I lead and mentor a team of 27 members, conduct performance reviews, track KPIs, and drive weekly and monthly reporting. I have implemented multiple process improvements and workflow optimizations that reduced escalations, improved resolution time, and streamlined bug-fix cycles through structured collaboration with Product and Engineering leadership. Technically hands-on across Salesforce, Jira, Confluence, SQL, Loops, and Amazon MongoDB, I combine deep technical troubleshooting with operational leadership and SLA-focused execution. I am now seeking Technical Manager opportunities where I can scale support operations, strengthen cross-functional alignment, and build high-performing teams that deliver measurable impact. Previously at Wipro, I progressed from Technical Support Engineer to Storage Administrator, supporting enterprise PowerScale environments with 100% adherence and strong customer recognition, building a strong foundation in infrastructure and operational excellence. Open to the right opportunity that values ownership, accountability, and operational excellence.
