Are you considering venturing into the world of analytics engineering? Analytics engineers are the newest addition to data teams and sit somewhere between data engineers and data analysts. They are technical, business savvy, and love to learn. A huge part of an analytics engineer’s role is learning new modern data tools to implement within data stacks.
The best description of untrusted data I’ve ever heard is, “We all attend the QBR – Sales, Marketing, Finance – and present quarterly results, except the Sales reports and numbers don’t match Marketing numbers and neither match Finance reports. We argue about where the numbers came from, then after 45 minutes of digging for common ground, we chuck our shovels and abandon the call in disgust.” How would you go about fixing that situation?
