Payments Observability & Monitoring

Site Reliability Engineer / DevOps Engineer

FDM Group (Client: ANZ Bank)Melbourne, Australia
2022 — Present

Engineering enterprise observability, telemetry automation, and system reliability for critical transaction-processing and payment systems at ANZ Bank. Championing Observability-as-Code (OaC) using Terraform to manage 400+ alert conditions and 100+ production dashboards.

Core Reliability Architecture & Deliverables

Architected and standardized Observability-as-Code workflows using Terraform and New Relic, eliminating manual configuration drift across production payment pipelines.
Designed and implemented full-stack golden signal dashboards (Latency, Traffic, Errors, Saturation) providing deep visibility into high-volume transactional microservices.
Engineered automated infrastructure agent rollout and telemetry ingestion pipelines across hybrid cloud and on-premise Linux, Unix, and Windows environments.
Consolidated multi-tool monitoring silos (New Relic, Dynatrace, Splunk) into unified alert policies, reducing MTTR (Mean Time to Resolution) and alert fatigue by over 35%.
Collaborated with platform security and infrastructure teams to integrate HashiCorp Vault secrets management into automated CI/CD deployment pipelines.
Developed high-precision NRQL and Splunk queries for proactive anomaly detection, synthetic monitoring, and service level objective (SLO) tracking.
