I have a broad background in technology and customer service with strong
interpersonal skills. My flexibility and ability to learn quickly allowed
me to participate in a variety of support roles.
EXPERIENCE:
AIG, Houston, TX 11/1997 - March 1, 2013 Senior
Technical Analyst
. Vendor Management - Procured extended service contracting for servers
out of warranty, and licensing for Citrix and Microsoft Server OS. I
interfaced with providers, coordinating quarterly and annual renewals
and maintaining global device lists exceeding 5000 devices, and
eliminated time & materials charges for devices not covered.
Consistently exceeded performance goals to minimize the number of
retired servers on the renewal, saving internal clients significant
money.
. Enterprise Server Support - Joined the ESS team, with duties including
maintenance of Novell, Windows OS and iSeries platforms, coordinating
trouble ticket queues, and representing changes at the daily change
management meetings. Also helped with Rightfax administration and a
Unix FTP server migration. Continued generating ad-hoc custom reports
from Remedy and later Service Now, when the company switched to the
more robust and customizable system.
. Call Center - Primary focus was coordinating calls for desktop support
and dispatching technicians to end users, where down time impacted
customer experience. I also helped identify custom components for
Call Center IT support in Remedy, and assisted in managing the on-site
Avaya PBX. I generated custom reports from both systems. I was
"smart hands" for Windows OS servers in the Call Center.
. Remedy Administration - A group was formed to administer the Remedy
system due to increased use (expanded from a single Trouble Ticket
module to include Change Management and Inventory tracking). I was
asked to join the group and also lead a project to initiate a Service
Level Agreement.
. Help Desk - IT support to internal clients via phone and desk side
visits. Used and administered Remedy system. Administered Avaya CMS
for routing in-coming calls, and generated custom performance reports.
Liaised with Enterprise Project Management to minimize impact of IT
implementations on projected call volumes. Promoted to team
management.
