I saw in my org there are data engineers working on data lake stuff like storage formats, schemas and data modelling in cloud warehouses etc. On the other hand people with title big data engineers work on streaming tech, exposing api endpoints and depending on the product, writing micro services apis and kubernetes for deployments. There are two different data roles in market? Or is it just my company? And which one is good for career progression and higher 💴
Why not? Both roles deal with either working on services or feeding data to the services isn’t it? Doesn’t it come under the umbrella of back end engineerin?
Depends on the company I guess but most places they're the same role, just different titles.
