My question is that , Are Software Engineers and Data Engineers doing the same work..? because I have not much interested in software development and programming as usual ..SO, Will it be right choice for me to adopt this career as a Data engineer..? Please guide me .. I really appreciate your helpful videos and a lot of Respect from "PAKISTAN".

    As a data engineer, I agree with your points but many of them are barely even negatives, at least for someone who would actually enjoy this kind of job. I enjoy being on the back end and a "second class citizen" as nobody is expecting me to pump out software like they do for the software engineers. The dependencies can get annoying but honestly the investigational work of this job is some of the most fun and keeps you engaged. Learning new software all the time is fun and it's cool to find better ways to do what you were doing before. Overall this job is a privilege to be able to work in as it has amazing WLB, fantastic pay, and low stress compared to 95% of other jobs in the world. Yes it has its challenges but it is nothing compared to other careers, the only hard part really is the initial learning curve.

    Your opening skit got me. My team is basically data engineering, but also core development in our small company too. And once was in a project planning meeting that had some managers, project owners, and marketing/sales in it. The main project was just parsing out text from some documents to check for some sort of risk assessment compliance. And near the end after I just briefly explained my thoughts what doing this would entail for our team which was JUST importing data, parsing for certain identifiers, and generating reports; one of the marketing/sales guys asks, "So when we have this can we advertise this as AI and machind learning because that's big right now".
    And I basically facepalmed(good thing it was a zoom meeting with my camera off) and got flustered and started say explaining why this wasn't AI and it would be a whole other thing to use that for this project. Which was apparently the wrong thing to say because he just asked why can't we do that? And I'm thinking, "nobody on our team has any experience with that so how can we build that product in your timeframe?" Luckily my boss jumped in and saved me to explain that we couldn't do that now and that it would be a huge time commitment and would derail the whole thing.

    The problem with the Business Analyst specialism is [as an intern/junior], employers expect you to have an MBA and/or prior business experience, a solid interest in business/finance in addition to the technical skills, which creates a significant barrier to entry. As a learner looking to change careers at a mature age, data engineering is far more attractive to me, because the emphasis is primarily on the technical skills.

      Isn't the main difference that implementation is different to theoretical understanding? A BA just has to understand the business and tech side, whereas the data eng or data analyst who is in the business have to know their side and be able to build/analyse things.

Before diving into college, I've decided to take a proactive approach by focusing on learning Java programming and Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) first.

    I liked the topic about "being near and away from the business outcome" I am an ex - frontend developer doing master's in data science now. I have this same question for about 2 years now as I try to figure out my true interest in this big IT industry. So there are 4 factors -
    1 salary,
    2 significance (how close is our work to the business outcome),
    3 dependency (how crucial is our work and to what degree can it drive the stakes),
    4 work-life (+ how much can we delegate later in the career)
    I do not want the best of all. But what I want is maximum value of this fraction: (salary * good work-life) ÷ (dependency or stakes). What role would allow me to maximize this fraction and where will I need to put the 2nd factor significance in this fraction? And somehow dependency and significance also affect number of jobs and their growth rate and salary growths too.
    What would be the best role if you want the best optimal point from all the above factors? I will consider focusing on that role and it's tech stack and skills.

    I worked as a Data Engineer for almost 3 years (Spark application development). I agree with most of the points here. Except few,
    1. Data engineers usually have more work compared others like Business Analysts / Data Scientists during the application development.
    2. Doing dev work in DE usually comes with some risk. Any bugs in your code has substantially bigger impact. You will be accountable for any errors in data processing. Also it is very difficult thing to track what caused the issue and since when.
    3. Testing the correctness of application usually takes longer than other software systems.

    Isn't that true for the DevOps/SRE roles too? Being a DevOps Engineer myself, I always feel like a "Second class citizen" in the sense that my work has little to do with the aspects of the application that are driving the whole business and is mainly about just getting it available to the customer. Sure we're the ones to ensure the availability, redundancy etc and help the organization get rid of mundane manual stuff but i never felt that sense of longing. @Jash Whats your take on this

    I have been in Data space for more than 1.5 decades. My advice is, if u r not good in math, then pls pls dont go for DS. Bcoz I have been seeing so many primary school mistakes from Data scientists (those who have completed a DS course and claim that they are data scientists). Start ur career with DA/ DE, then parallelly build a good foundation in Math - then slowly switch to ML/AI... As of now, most of the Data scientists are just configuring the Black Boxes (ML algos) - not creating or contributing to the ML algos...
    I m not kidding...
    In an interview, I asked a guy to write the equation of a straight line and asked to explain it in simple words... Responses were awesome

    All valid points. In cost centers, or CoC, where you are not under the CIO organization, your direct lead is non technical person and you are limited to tools associated with no or limited cost, then you are Data Engineer without described harsh reality, its even worst, all is hyped to Data Science, no one want to invest time to data governance.

  • @priyap7019
    @priyap7019 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Great perspective Jash. You definitely laid out the important aspects of the job. One part you missed out was that in many companies you may have to be on call to help with pipeline break/fix if reports/dashboards cater to critical business functions and it is a thankless/low visibility job with nice pay. Google or top tech companies may have SRE teams but that may not be the case with non tech companies. So if you don’t like to do on call/break fixes then don’t be lured by the money. I recently left this field due to on call burnout and I work for a fortune 100 company. Good luck!

    Coming from a datawarehouse background and I hear and see DE and DS I remember the need of data architecture and the use of a ETL tool for datawarehousing and BI. DS and DE give me the impression of anything goes and quick and dirty and after a while these projects tend to go to more structured, scd and maybe a need to use an ETL tool to realise that. So I miss a bit the added value of DE and DS over old school datawarehousing.

    Its funny that data engineers feel second class citizen when compared to managers n ds, truth being told all these data centric manager n technical roles have evolved after recent big data boom where companies wants to make most out the data that they have or wants third party company to help them with it. Guess what during the hard times it was these same roles or associated data product teams that were kicked out first, be it during covid pandemic or recent layoffs. If you really want secured n stable job in tech industry you better associate with tech stack onto which the core business runs 24*7, cool tech buzz might give shoot your salary up in corporate world in very short period but it can never ever guarantee stability.

      What you mentioned is a good pay for a data analyst. But data engineers earn more than data analysts usually.
