- Explore ways to combine flow data, routing metrics (BGP, OSPF), and synthetic network tests to provide a holistic view of network health and pinpoint the exact node or ISP causing degradation.
- Partner with Product Marketing to articulate the business value of network path monitoring, showing customers how improved visibility directly correlates to reduced MTTR and optimized cloud egress costs.
- Identify opportunities to build intelligent alerting and root-cause analysis capabilities, working with engineering to surface network bottlenecks, ISP outages, or misconfigured security groups before they impact end-user applications.
