Currently what I believe is often Company have overlaps in the requirements among these roles, like data visualisation inside data engineers and vice versa. So Companies should more focus on segregating the responsibilities based on the Job Role first.what say @Seattle Data Guy
This does have some dependence on company size. At larger companies I do think there is value in treating data work more like an assembly line. But smaller companies usually these roles are hybrid. Also there should be some room for people to work across skills if they want to change roles. So in theory its probably best for the company to have roles very clearly delineated . In practice, this can be a very different story.
Great video! I am wondering whether skills are easily transferable between the roles? Especially between analytics engineering and data engineering? Would I be easily able to move from analytics eng to data eng or vice versa?
I often feel that analytics engineer has often been part of data engineering for a while. I used to just tell people that there were a few archtypes of data engineers. Now analytics engineer has started to partition the two roles better.
@@SeattleDataGuy thanks for the info! Thanks to your channel I learned about analytics engineer (and dbt). Next week will be my first week as one. So please keep posting new videos!
Hey i’m a senior data engineer with one of the big4 consulting company . Do you think it’s possible to transition to faang ? Or should i stick with consulting
Hi , I am a Data analyst. Been working as an analyst for the last 6 months or so. I love it but i want to move forward in my career but not as data analyst. Can you suggest some program that would help me become analytics engineer
What would be helpful is. building up your sql and python experience as well as data warehousing and etl/elt concepts. Also you can dig a little into dbt. Here is a video th-cam.com/video/8FZZivIfJVo/w-d-xo.html
2:32 Dude, so agree with this! Pick a job based on what you are passionate about 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Yeah, personally its about finding that intersection between what you like doing, what people will pay for and what you're good at.
What if you're not passionate about any of it, so instead looking for the most practical role.

You can for sure switch if it’s what you want

Sorry I couldn't find any job like this yet
I am sorry to hear that :(
I heard that many people say data engineer = sql boy, is that true? I am interested in data engineer, but I want to develop systems.
It can depend. But if you want to be extra sure look for roles that are usually described as Software Engineer - Data or something like that.
