{{% resume/section "Summary" %}}
Customer-focused Technical Support professional (Tier 1/2) with strong de-escalation and clear communication skills, and a track record of faster first response, fewer escalations, and tighter SLAs. Comfortable handling high-throughput ticket queues, documenting fixes into KBs, and translating technical issues into plain language for non-technical users.

title="Technical Support Engineer Intern (Tier 1/2)"
languages="Ticketing/Triage, Knowledge Base Writing, De-escalation"
date="May 2023 — Aug 2024" %}}
- Delivered **Tier 1/2 frontline support** for CI/CD & Kubernetes in a ticket queue; improved **first-response time by 40%** through better triage/routing.
- Performed **incident troubleshooting and root-cause analysis**; automated data capture/validation that resolved **80% of config errors** and **reduced downtime by 40%**.
- Wrote **step-by-step knowledge-base articles** and troubleshooting flows that enabled Tier 1 to solve common probe issues, **cutting escalations by 30%**.
- Built a deployment **runbook** that standardized fixes and **reduced repeat contacts/tickets by 66%**; **shortened resolution from 45 → 15 minutes**.
- Kept users informed with **concise status updates**, set expectations, and **de-escalated frustrated stakeholders** by focusing on next steps and time to resolution.
- Documented fixes into **KBs/runbooks** for reuse.
{{% /resume/work-experience %}}
- **Reduced deployment time by 66%** by implementing a
[solution](https://github.com/apache/incubator-kie-kogito-operator/commit/175a6356c5474f2360ccb8ae835e0b9b2d653cf1) for deploying locally-compiled binaries onto
Kubernetes/OpenShift via command-line, **cutting average
deployment times from 45 minutes to 15 minutes**.
(**Kubernetes/GoLang** used for this and three below).
- **Eliminated 80% of manual configuration errors** by enabling
the Kubernetes operator to automatically fetch data from
deployed services and update configurations, **deprecating
legacy startup scripts and reducing overall startup time
by 40%**.
- **Improved application stability** by introducing startup
probes for legacy applications with longer boot times,
**resulting in a 50% reduction in startup-related failures
and downtime during production launches**.
- **Enhanced system reliability** by refactoring probes to
[assign default values](https://github.com/apache/incubator-kie-kogito-operator/commit/af4977af228ec8648be28779259d4552246b656f) dynamically based on deployed YAML
files and fixing reconciliation issues, **increasing probe
accuracy by 30%** and preventing misconfigurations.
- **Increased CI pipeline efficiency** by rewriting the
**Jenkins (Groovy)** [nightly pipeline](https://github.com/apache/incubator-kie-kogito-pipelines/commit/4c83f1aecdea2c1ba2796b79839a90d4083dce88) to run in a GitHub PR
environment, allowing for automated testing of all
team-submitted PRs prior to merging, **reducing manual
intervention by 60%**.

## Old
- **Developed a full-stack web application** to generate rarity
rankings for NFT's integrated with leading NFT
marketplace's (OpenSea) API,
enabling users to **quickly identify rare NFT's** and check
their listing status, **improving market research efficiency by 80%**.

## New
- Developed a full-stack web application to generate rarity rankings for NFTs integrated with leading NFT marketplaces (Magic
Eden) API, enabling users to quickly identify rare NFTs and check their listing status, improving market research efficiency by 80%.
- fetch metadata from either IPFS or website in parallel processes to create rarity
rankings as soon as metadata revealed
- reverse engineered algorithm for rarity rankings for NFT's based on article from
marketplace about their in-house statistical rarity
ranking
- created Prisma schema for PostgreSQL for database to store NFT data
- Node.js backend with API endpoints to return NFT's based
on max rank/price along with rarest traits
- lowest prices for rarity percentile to see if good deal
- fetch all listings from leading marketplace (Magic Eden) to be
able to identify which rare NFT's are on sale and be able
to filter based on max price/filter
- store previous sales data to check whether a buy at rarity
percentile is a good deal
- React FE to dynamically load NFT's based on rarity
rank/price filter with ability to hide seen ones
- Discord bot to notify you when customizable profitable resale
opportunity comes up based on rarity level/price
