About the team
Network Monitoring and Remediation (NMR) is the team that makes that possible. We prevent, predict, detect, and remediate network impairments before they reach customers. Our systems ingest trillions of telemetry data points daily from millions of network devices, apply advanced streaming analytics and ML/AI to surface actionable signals, and drive automated mitigation through our event management platform. Today, over 98% of detected issues are resolved without human intervention. For the remainder, we provide expert diagnostic tooling that enables operators to act decisively. Our vision: every network failure is pre-emptively resolved by autonomous systems — zero customer impact, zero human intervention.
