About Nick M.

Current Position
I provide third-level (3LS) support for Nokia’s Network Services Platform (NSP), working closely with developers and second-level support to resolve complex customer issues and improve product reliability.
Main Motivation
I really enjoy the problem-solving aspect of my role—every case is a new challenge that pushes me to think critically and collaborate with talented teams.

Greatest Achievement
One of my proudest achievements was serving as a student ambassador, where I organized fun and engaging events that helped build a strong sense of community. I’m now continuing that passion at Nokia as an ambassador for the NextGEN (new hire) community, where I aim to create similar experiences that connect and support new employees. In my technical role, I’ve also contributed to solving complex customer issues through 3LS support, helping improve product reliability and customer satisfaction.
