  • Designed and launched "Alert Mapper", a robust internal platform built from the ground up to manage and streamline over 500 alert configurations across 90+ teams at Visa. The tool became a cornerstone for incident response, cutting alert noise by over 60% and supporting features such as personalized subscriptions, cloning options, alert comparison, dynamic triggers, and on-call directory lookups. Proven to operate reliably under company-wide drill simulations.
  • Enhanced system observability by architecting a unified telemetry processing pipeline that ingested data from 400+ services and translated it into PromQL-ready formats. This significantly improved monitoring consistency, enabled powerful metric querying, and made cross-team health visibility more accessible.
  • Revamped fraud detection mechanisms by building a real-time, high-throughput signal router capable of handling 1,000+ fraud alerts per minute. The fully autonomous engine ensured timely and accurate routing of security events to the appropriate response teams, improving operational efficiency.
  • Built resilient synthetic monitoring infrastructure for Visa Go — a platform serving over 3 million users during the 2024 Paris Olympics — maintaining 99.99% uptime throughout global peak activity. Delivered tooling with rapid 10-second health checks, automated alert escalation, and seamless integration with enterprise systems like Netcool and Everbridge.
  • Automated monitor provisioning by developing a lightweight web tool that allows engineers to generate health checks by simply entering a request number. The app also provides scheduling for maintenance windows, the ability to pause alerting, and built-in reporting capabilities.
  • Implemented front-end test automation using Playwright, reducing manual regression testing and improving release confidence for observability tools and internal monitoring systems.
