The Problem

Enterprise data teams lack a unified trust signal for their data assets. Pipelines fail silently, bad data reaches dashboards and ML models, and engineers spend hours in post-mortems instead of building. The 'credit score' for data doesn't exist.

The Approach

  • 01Defined a real-time data trust scoring framework based on freshness, completeness, and schema consistency
  • 02Implemented SLO-backed alerting that triggers before bad data reaches downstream consumers
  • 03Built a data lineage layer to trace anomalies to their source
  • 04Designed the admin UX for data team leads to configure thresholds and monitor pipeline health
  • 05Created incident runbooks integrated with the alerting layer

Impact

  • 60% reduction in data incidents reaching production
  • Full observability coverage across monitored pipelines
  • Mean time to detect data anomalies reduced from hours to minutes
  • Data team confidence in reporting increased measurably
