Starting off as a Project Manager for Analytics/Data Science projects after a Masters in Analytics. I was hoping to work as a Data Analyst though, with more focus on tech skills. Anyway- if in future I want to be moving into more tech focused roles, what should my path look like? I am quite good with Sql and Python, fairly decent with ML, so is Data Eng a viable option?

Just make them change the title to Technical PM/PgM and take a more hands-on role with your team. The PM/PgM track is more of a management track than a technical track for sure though. You should note this in your professional development plan (or get another job as a Data Analyst/Scientist/Engineer).

Thank you, I really appreciate the advice. Not sure if it makes a difference, but I work at a consulting firm/IT services firm, and I have only ever worked at consulting- before the Master's .

Hi all 8.7 YOE now, Joined wipro 4 months back with 26.5+1lac JB. Skills business analytics. My current project does not follow agile processes at all, very relaxed client. However what im worried is after 2 years would interviewers expect me to have handled a project all alone and acted as a product owner. Thats what i sense once i have 10 YOE, if i switch it would be 6th company, (2 years break due to MBA ofcourse)

Hello, in my previous organisation I worked in development domain (Oracle IAM Tool and Java)and my post was software Engineer, i joined Wipro as project Engineer in April 2022 and was assigned non technical project as an analyst.

I fought my way hard to get released from the project. However my designation is changed as Analyst. Should I ask for change in designation as I know that analyst is non-technical profile? Would my designation impact my future role as well?
