It’s important to understand the differences between a data engineer and a data scientist. Misunderstanding or not knowing these differences are making teams fail or underperform with big data. I think some of these misconceptions come from the diagrams that are used to describe data scientists and data engineers. Overly simplistic venn diagram with data scientists and data engineers. Yes, both positions work on big data.

I’m interrupting the regular programming for a quick announcement: we’re looking for data engineers at Better. Migrate our data warehouse to Redshift. Write and productionize a web scraper to ingest a bunch of financial third party data. Fit Gamma distributions to conversion data to understand the time lag and conversion rates. This position is very engineering-heavy at its core, and the main qualification is solid programming skills.

Big data can be quite a confusing concept to grasp. What to consider big data and what is not so big data? Big data is still data, of course. But it requires a different engineering approach and not just because of its amount. Regular data processing.

Or, why science and engineering are still different disciplines. "A He would have to ask an engineer to do it for him.". A few months ago, I wrote about the differences between data engineers and data scientists. An interesting thing happened: the data scientists started pushing back, arguing that they are, in fact, as skilled as data engineers at data engineering. Otherwise, this leads to failure with big data projects.

I mentioned in an earlier blog titled, “Staffing your big data team, ” that data engineers are critical to a successful data journey. That said, most companies that are early in their journey lack a dedicated engineering group. And the longer it takes to put a team in place, the likelier it is that your big data project will stall. However, it’s imperative to find people who have an intense interest in the data that they are working with.
