About Me

About Me Image

I am an IT Support and Systems Operations professional with three years of experience at the Ministry of Finance of Timor-Leste, working in the Integrated Financial Management Information System (IFMIS) department. I provided frontline support for critical government systems used by multiple departments, ensuring users could work efficiently and systems remained stable and secure.

In my role, I delivered Level 1 and Level 2 IT support, handling incidents and service requests, troubleshooting hardware, software, and access issues, and managing user accounts and permissions. I monitored system performance, documented issues, and escalated complex problems when required. I am customer-focused, patient, and reliable, with strong communication skills, and I am now seeking an IT Support / Service Desk role in Australia where I can contribute and continue to grow.
