What would you do: I'm a data analyst embedded with a Data Science team. I do some data viz/analysis in python, know SQL, Business Objects/Excel. Databricks dev certified but no experience and picking up Qlik dashboarding as per client request. Should I try to get something with Databricks and go data engineering? Does dashboarding fit in or will I get pigeonholed?

Getting your org to develop something in darabricks is the thing that gets interesting. Learning to produce a feature library that the data scientists use, building a fully automated pipeline, and getting the cluster configuration right for each of the 3 parties (feature creation, data science, and BI workload) is where I have found the most enjoyment.

Go databricks cert wise; dashboarding certs tend to get folks pigeonholed.

I have a databricks cert now and looking at possibly adding a few more just have no experience outside playing in a sandbox

Hey Fishes,

Joined LTI recently in P3 band. However not allocated any project.

What shall be the next steps, shall I wait for some days or start looking for other jobs as getting a project looks difficult as there are minimalist responses.
