      • Aug 2020 - Present

      In my current role, I prioritize and handle multiple projects and assignments for an innovative web-based software start-up in a fully remote environment. As the Technical Product Support lead, I am the primary point of escalation and assistance for our upcoming and established clients. Acting quickly to address issues, I work closely with external IT teams and internal team members to resolve complex requests in a timely manner. Additionally, I closely monitor projects by reporting the status of items to management and key stakeholders. As the Jira Service Desk administrator, I have streamlined our Support requests by integrating our email and Service Desk ticketing system together increasing collaboration cross-functionally with the Software Development and Product Teams. I work closely with our technology experts to create use cases for increased product testing and validation. As part of the software development lifecycle team, I organize the communication of new product releases, features, and functions. As a liaison between the implementation team, the client, and our technical team, I work closely with customers and internal users to answer questions, resolve issues, and gather feedback and enhancement suggestions. As a resource for the Product Manager, I articulate the customer business cases and needs for existing and future product functions and services by creating entries directly into the product roadmap Backlog.
