This team of engineers and scientists build and operate the systems that monitor and analyze billions of data points per day from our telemetry systems across millions of devices, and using those insights to drive automated recovery in near-real-time through other systems we build. Their systems are also used to get insight into the most performant parts of their own networks as well as the internet so that other systems can ensure customers have industry leading performance.
