01 — About

Customer-first support, backed by real technical depth.

Since 2018 I've been front-line IT support for a 150+ room, 24/7 hotel property — resolving 15–20 hardware, software, account, and connectivity issues a week for 30+ staff, by phone and in person. Password resets, printer and POS breakdowns, Wi-Fi outages, workstation builds: if it stops a user from working, it's my job to fix it fast and explain it clearly.

I'm also a Computer Science graduate (GMU, Dec 2025) who builds and operates real systems on AWS and Linux on my own time. That hands-on depth means I don't just follow a script — I understand what's actually happening under the hood, which gets me to root cause faster and cuts repeat tickets.

What I care about most: the person on the other end of the ticket. Patient with non-technical users, calm under pressure, and careful with confidential information.

04 — Projects

I don't just close tickets — I run the systems behind them.

Live Production Web Applications — bookmyeventservices.com · venueply.com

Live · self-operated

Two live applications I built and operate end to end — meaning I'm the one who handles every account issue, access problem, and outage.

Why it matters for IT support: I've done real identity & access management — provisioning and deprovisioning accounts, role-based access control, email-based MFA, session expiry — and diagnosed live incidents from logs and CloudWatch metrics. The same skills as enterprise account administration, practiced on systems I'm personally responsible for.

Highly Available Website on AWS — debnath.click · GitHub

Cloud · AWS

A fault-tolerant environment: Apache on Linux EC2 behind a load balancer with auto scaling across availability zones, Route 53 DNS, HTTPS via ACM, least-privilege security groups, and CloudWatch alarms.

Why it matters for IT support: DNS, TLS certificates, load balancing, Linux administration, and alerting are exactly what's behind "the website is down" tickets. I've configured and troubleshot each layer myself.

Network Routing Simulator — GitHub

Networking

Distributed router nodes built from scratch over TCP sockets, implementing Distance Vector and Link State routing.

Why it matters for IT support: I understand how packets actually move — which makes connectivity, DNS, and VPN troubleshooting faster and more accurate.
