For those who working in data science (hired for a data science job), how often does your team assign you to software development/engineering tasks. My interviewer made it clear that the position was specifically for a data science job (e.g. modeling, preprocessing, etc). It’s been 10 months and they’ve given me only software development work such as web application development and UI/UX design. I tried to talk to my boss but the response was more like “it’s a good learning opportunity.”

This is always a fear of mine when interviewing. Let’s say you have 5 interviews, 30 minutes each. In my experience it’s typically a “tell me about yourself”, then a few behavior questions, then 5 minutes for questions about the role/team.

If they never cover the day to day of the role in detail, then you have maybe 20-30 minutes total of questions about the role when it’s all done, which is not enough for details like data science vs software development to get hashed out.

Sorry I didn’t really answer your question, just wanted to share my frustration with you and wish you good luck!

Ah you got baited huh

Following.

MLOps (here in the distinct from modeling sense) is 1/4 of my current job, 1/2 of my last. No stuff like UI development though

I did it! I got an in-house Paralegal position after years of working and being burned out at different law firms.

Hi 👋🏻 Would love some support here - looking to build out a bonus structure for a Sales Engagement Mgr role - it isn't a typical sales role - this person will be closing deals but not necessarily securing leads. If they will be scoring leads, it will be organic via conferences, partnerships. Of course, we want to encourage and incentivize this person. Potentially giving then an extra 20-50k bonus potential. How do I build this out? Any suggestions or examples would be super helpful. Thank you!!
