Data Science Skills & Tools
These are the skills and tools needed by a data scientist that I can think of. Feel free to add or remove. 1. Excel 2. SQL 3. R 4. Python 5. Tableau 6. SAS 7. Presentation 8. Splunk 9. Power BI 10. Machine Learning
Splunk. Not a requirement but a good to know type of thing.
Splunk is on the way out. Sales are way down, check out LogRhythm though. very strong tool. lots of news on it.
Many data scientists work on or very close to production systems. I'd add a basic level of computer science understanding and practical abilities to this list for many roles.
Should add specific Python packages like Pandas, numpy, matplotlib, sklearn, etc
PowerBI/Dax
Don't data science folks need understanding of Machine Learning?
I was thinking the same because thats what most of our data scientists do. Now i am wondering what do these people in other companies do. May be they r confusing data analyst/ data eng with scientists. P.S. I do all of that other people have mentioned but i am not a data scientist
Same at Apple. A lot of DS people do machine learning.
Problem solving; Business understanding
I interviewed for DS position and was asked also/DS just like normal SDE so add also/DS as well.
Data cube is doing a good job of killing all these requirements
Increasingly a lot of companies are using Looker as well
