• Collaborated with engineering, data science, operations, and product teams to automate workflows and enhance anti-abuse systems, raising overall automation rates for all mature low- and medium-risk workflows to over 98%.
• Served as the gatekeeper of system integrity by deep-diving into stability issues and emerging risks, implementing solutions and robust incident management protocols while working to enhance general codebase quality and reduce technical debt
• Leveraged engineering skill sets in a business organization to drive meaningful business impact by looking at engineering problems through an operational lens
• Created alert systems and monitoring tools for massive scale datasets to identify new trends and anomalies related to online abuse and fraud, leading to the identification of hundreds of new avenues for abuse and fraudulent activities.
• Contributed to the creation and monitoring of core KPIs to evaluate the impact of abuse on user safety and platform integrity, contributing to the prioritization and continual improvement anti-abuse policies and practices.
• Automated the detection, identification, review, and monitoring of content and malicious behavior across all Meta surfaces by leveraging technical competencies to drive meaningful business impact by looking at engineering problems through an operational lens

• Leveraged the monitoring systems Splunk, Nagios, RabbitMQ, and NewRelic to create automatic alerts for site performance issues
• Supported the implementation of data protection and data integrity protocols and collaborated with technical teams to resolve data-related issues.
• Liaise with application development, account management, executive team, and Tier 1 Support teams to ensure the success and timely management of new client implementations
• Served as the customer-facing technical expert for all newly onboarded clients, improving client satisfaction and ensuring the timely and successful implementation of multiple projects simultaneously.

Developed a facebook-inspired communication platform for geographically dispersed consultant teams, allowing collaborative discussions regarding common challenges and learnings. Reached 100% adoption within 2 months of launch.
