Are your VoIP systems unreliable, your network slow, or your IT operations hard to keep on top of? I help businesses solve exactly that — with fast, reliable, and well-documented solutions. With over 9 years in IT, I specialise in service delivery, VoIP engineering, network administration, and Linux system administration. I have hands-on expertise with Asterisk PBX — from initial deployment and dial plan configuration to troubleshooting and ongoing optimisation for call centres and business communications teams. Here's what I bring to every engagement: • VoIP system setup, configuration, and support (Asterisk, FreePBX, SIP trunking) • Network administration — LAN/WAN, routing, switching, firewall management • Linux administration — Ubuntu, CentOS, scripting, and automation • End-to-end IT service delivery — from helpdesk operations to infrastructure management • BPO and call centre technical support — systems, tools, and agent support • Remote troubleshooting, documentation, and clear client communication I hold a 100% Job Success Score on Upwork and take pride in delivering work that's on time, well-communicated, and built to last. I'm comfortable working independently or as part of a distributed team, and I adapt quickly to new environments and tools. If you need a reliable, experienced IT professional who communicates clearly and gets the job done right — let's talk. Send me a message and I'll respond within a few hours.
