I'd start by doing some online courses or bootcamps. My top two recommendations are Udemy and Coursera. Developing critical Data Engineer skills on your own time will make the transition smoother.

You're going to have to learn how codet since instead of extracting data for information, you'll be developing the algorithms/systems that contain information. Python's a pretty good language to start in.

Google offers a professional data engineer certification and helps build you a portfolio of projects on GCP.

I’d focus on building domain knowledge of cloud, and then the tools required to build robust data pipelines. And then probably some ML / analytics and expertise for how to consume that data, using aforementioned platforms and tools.

I’m a DS and getting cloud experience, and knowledge of the surrounding tech real estate (GCP, MLOps) landed me a 20% then a 75% pay rise across two job hops this last 12 months. This data field feels like buzz word bingo, provided you can communicate and demonstrate the constituent ideas and concepts.

I have a general question regarding finances in respect to marriage. Im engaged to be married in 2 months. My soon to be husband makes less than me, is working on fixing his credit, and is not the best with money management but I am more than willing to help him with all of this. I do see this marriage as long term. How should I manage bank accounts? I do want to keep some savings separate as well as joint. Any experiences? Advice?

I hung out this weekend with a work friend of mine. We’re both junior, but I’ve been on FMLA due to an unexpected illness so have been away for a bit. I know that I screwed up on some files before I was diagnosed which I feel awful about and have been trying to rectify (unpaid), but she spent a lot of time cataloguing the ways in which I messed up. It was supposed to be a nice weekend for once and I’m feeling more beat down than ever 😕 just not sure how to get the motivation/nerve to go back!
