- Ability to coordinate effectively with internal technical teams, vendors, and Cisco support resources.
- Strong communication, documentation, and customer-facing skills.
- Ability to work independently with limited supervision.

- Manage, update, troubleshoot, and resolve Cisco Collaboration-related incident tickets within ServiceNow.
- Provide day-to-day operational support for Cisco Unified Communications and Collaboration environment.
- Troubleshoot voice, collaboration, conferencing, endpoint, and related connectivity issues.
