  • Catch the Time Series Analysis race conditions that only surface under West Covina peak traffic
  • Stress-test Customer Service systems until they bend, then harden where they cracked

  What You'll Bring

  • 5+ years that left you with strong instincts and few illusions
  • 3 years of learning when to trust the process and when to break it
