How to transition from DS to SWE

I am a data scientist with 4.5 years of experience and want to transition to software engineering. In DS, we do not code the ways its done in SW roles. Moreover, I am not from CS background. How do I get started on preparing to get into tier 1 companies as SWE / SDE if I want to achieve this in the next 1/1.5 years?

Any specific reason you are trying to switch?

Try for ML engineering. That would be an easy route as your concepts might be clear already

My thoughts exactly, but there would be some fundamental CS requirements right?

That same generic dsa stuff would be enough
