Transitioning to Data Engineering

Data engineer

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Hi Everyone,
I have 5 ys experience working in Database support with having knowledge in SQL, Scripting and python.

I want to switch my role to a Data Engineering job as my current role is not having enough job opportunities outside.

I am planning to learn tools on Data Engineering.
Like the Data Frameworks: Airflow,SSIS,Azure Factory 
And Dataworks like Snowflake,Databricks,Postgres

I need some guidance on which tool to start learning and if I plan to learn these tools for the next 6 months. Is it possible to crack the interviews....this is my 1st switch to a new company. 

Can anyone pls suggest which framework, Dataworks tool i need to start and has high possibility for getting switch to new company.

If possible can you pls share the learning path 🙏🙏🙏. Thanks in advance.

Pls advise.... Planning to switch ti Data Engineering job from Database support

Software Engineer

I need a bit guidance for how to prepare so that I can switch.

There are lots of topics in DE and I'm not sure on which topics should I focus on more.

Any Data Engineer or Data scientist here?

I've been an Oracle Database Administrator handling databases and exadata, data guard, performance tuning (not so great at it), little bit of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure as well and typical DBA tasks including tablespace reorganization, migrations, etc. for the last 3 years. 

Now I'm thinking about transitioning into a Data Engineer/Data Analyst roles as it seems it is having a more lucrative future ahead.

I'm good at doing DBA things but I'm doubtful about this considering the future scope of this as there isn't much a DBA has to do in databases as most of the work is handled by Database itself but I have an interest in it and getting calls from other companies as well for the same role.

Is DBA a really good career option considering the future and the compensation?

Or exploring or gaining skills in data engineering/analyst has more benefit?

Also, what would be the best among Data Engineer/Data Analyst/AI,ML Engineer?

Need advice on Career Transition

I have been working as a SAP ABAP consultant (as primary domain) but I do handle the Data Engineering/Integration activities in my project(from 3 years on n off). And now I feel like I'm becoming Jack of all and king of none.

Could anyone please guide me through, how shall I change my domain and what all do we expect in interviews? N how the market and opportunities outside? 

Thank you in advance🙏🏼

Data Scientist

Welcome to Ask Grapeviners's Private Community

Hey Guys, I have worked as a backend software engineer for 5 years, tech stack includes, spring boot,Java, SQL, docker, Apache Kafka, rest APIs.

However I have had bad luck twice now, after I switched from my first company, I got stuck in a super complex project where the business logic was just beyond anyone to implement, I had quit from there and after that I got in a service based company where I got stuck in a legacy java app where the environment was very toxic, shitty managers sucking up to client and putting all pressure on us.

I don't think software is for me or I'm getting stuck in the wrong places not sure, but I'm thinking of switching to data engineering as I believe it is repetitive work and might be less stressful compared to software engineering.

For anyone working in data engineering, how should I start learning it as a beginner and what courses should I do, which tech stack to focus on, basically I wanted to know how to start getting into this field.

Is it less stressful compared to software? I don't care about repetitive work, I just want to have peace of mind now. Let me know your thoughts and any good culture companies that hire for data engineers.
