Your ImpactYou will employ analytical techniques to solve key questions that make the business of Cisco ThousandEyes successful. You will be primarily responsibly to produce statistical reports that covers analyses reporting internet performance for Government customers.
Lead key, cross-functional analytical projects, identifying and bringing together stakeholders/ partners, developing joint analytical approaches, and completing the project.
Collaborate with internal and external partners, including Data Scientists within the company and across clients, on methodology for reporting that performance of ISPs in specific geographies and to explain trends and patterns in the data.
Develop and maintains data pipelines and dashboards to monitor and track trends and changes in the customer data.
Use data to find opportunities and patterns that Government customers may be interested in.
Display deep data wrangling techniques, strong visualization skills to depict/ present narratives that identify growth opportunities.
Strong R for production reporting pipelines: tidyverse, multi-file project navigation, debugging across pipeline stages, and package/version management with renv.
SQL for analytical querying against BigQuery and MariaDB via bigrquery, DBI, and RMariaDB.
Literate programming and reporting: R Markdown and Quarto rendering to Word, chart/table formatting with ggplot2/flextable/officedown, and reproducible quarterly output.
Statistical judgment: interpreting confidence intervals, weighted means, trimmed means, and sample size limitations - knowing when a result is technically accurate but misleading.
Report writing for a regulatory audience: clear, detailed, defensible prose with consistent terminology, informative tone, and editorial judgment that AI drafting alone can't replace.
Attention to detail in published outputs: catching mislabelled figures, wrong baselines, numbers that don't sum, and chart axes that obscure trends.
Data management across multiple systems: BigQuery, GCS, SharePoint/OneDrive, and local R sessions with no automated orchestration -- manual, script-by-script execution requiring care and rigor.
Comfortable using AI coding tools (Cursor, Copilot, etc.) as a force-multiplier for pipeline maintenance, debugging, drafting, and routine code changes.
Experience with broadband measurement, telecom/ISP data, or network performance concepts.
Spatial data basics in R.
Awareness of PII and data confidentiality constraints.
Shiny for small internal tools.
