A decade of Visa Direct delivery
Concept-to-market delivery on a $1B+ API-first payments platform: one integrated plan and OKRs across 60 engineering teams and 10+ stakeholder orgs, sitting next to product without owning the PRD.
- Argentina market launch from concept to GA against a Central Bank deadline: 30+ engineers across product, engineering, compliance, and regional teams. Landed on the required date.
- Portfolio of 20+ programs, about $80M annual spend, held at 80% delivery predictability.
- Operating model designed from scratch (intake, prioritization, capacity, risk and dependencies, review cadence), adopted across three orgs and 500-plus engineers.
Outcome: 30% YoY growth on the platform; dates held under real constraints; cadence other delivery managers could run after handoff.
