Software engineer Vs cloud data engineer

I have 3 offers, 2 for the software engineer Backend and one for Cloud data engineer in Google. I am surely inclined towards Google since the name is tempting but at the same time i love coding. I feel Software engineer will have 100% coding whereas cloud data engineer might have 70% coding. Also seems like cloud data engineer role will be less paid as comparable to software engineer. Any pointers that will help me make mind will really be appreciated. Thanks

That seems low. How many years of work experience do you have?

Do you mind sharing how was interview process for cloud data engineer ? I have something similar lined up and was wondering do I need to focus only on data - Hadoop/ETL/spark etc or still go through algo and leetcode ?
