  • Designed and implemented a fully automated data pipeline to extract daily per-service availability metrics from Datadog, transform them using Python and tableauhyperapi, and publish structured outputs for analytics consumption.
  • Replaced legacy 7-day rolling average logic with granular daily availability tracking across multiple services, enabling accurate incident pinpointing and seamless integration with downstream reporting systems.
  • Built a scalable alerting framework integrated with the pipeline, automatically notifying service owners of daily SLO violations, reducing incident response time by 20% and improving operational readiness.
  • Developed backend systems to compute and expose real-time reliability metrics (Availability, Latency, MTTR, MTTA) via programmatic APIs, improving observability tooling and driving a 15% reduction in system downtime for Tier-1 services.
