We spoke with people who have worked as data engineers and hired data engineering teams to assist students and mid-career professionals to decide if data engineering is right for them.

Following are qualities recruiters look for in the candidate for the role:

You must be a strong developer.

Everyone agrees that you need good development abilities for a data engineering position.

Ng explains, “You will have to write scripts and possibly some glue code.”

"Everything is now code: infrastructure, pipelines, and so on.

Courses are good, but nothing compares to hands-on experience.

A textbook, at least none of mine, does not teach you how to deal with a data pipeline interruption."

You need to know about many technologies.

A data engineer’s key responsibilities are as follows:

  • To guarantee that the data pipeline, which includes data collecting and processing, is up and running.
  • Internal customers — data scientists and data analysts – must be served.
  • To keep the cost of transporting and keeping data under control.

To do these tasks, an engineer must know about a large variety of tools present in the market.
