Summary
🤩
RockstarDiego Ramirez is an electronics-trained engineering leader with nearly two decades of experience spanning carrier-grade VoIP, routing and switching, real-time networks, and Microsoft Azure cloud support. Currently a Support Engineering Manager in Redmond, he leads Azure-specialized teams, drives data-informed operations with Power BI, and shapes product improvements by channeling customer feedback into engineering. He built and scaled cross-regional support models—managing global and vendor teams—to lift customer satisfaction to ~90% while establishing sustainable enablement and content frameworks. Technically hands-on earlier in his career, he still contributes to open source Python tooling (notably improvements to nox and pip) and retains a pragmatic test-automation and CI mindset. A people-first coach who champions a growth mindset, he combines deep troubleshooting roots with a focus on mentorship and measurable operational impact. Outside work he’s a retro-gaming curious regular pythonista, reflecting a continuous-learning mindset that informs both technical and team practices.
