Why do Indians support Israel so much( on blind surprisingly) when Israel really thinks 💩of them ?
How would I go about getting a DE role at a FAANG? I know Linux Shell, PL/SQL. I work a decent amount with Oracle EBS and APEX. I’d like to get away from that if possible. I’m good with SQL leetcode. I need to brush up on a language (python?) to practice LC algo question right? YOE:3 TC:115K
Learn python, Spark n try to understand the modern database concepts like sorting, distribution, avoiding shuffle etc. Writing analytical SQL is a must though.
Data engineers at Meta are not actual engineers. They spend most of their time building dashboards and writing SQL queries on engines built by actual SWEs. My suggestion is be very careful on job description whenever a recruiter reaches out to you. Data jobs are wildly inflated and misnamed in terms of titles in this market so be careful.
There's a clear distinction between SWE and DE. I'm not sure what you mean by engines built by actual SWEs. Not all DEs are same level, but same can be said about SWEs.
LOL, SQL? Try Postgres, Dynamo DB, Redis, or ES. And no respective FAANG team uses Python for anything more than internal tools or small lambda type scripts. Try Java/Scala/Node. Also “DE” is not actually a role, Sr. SDE or PE works as a DE and more.
Lol? I hope you understand sql is a language to interact with relational databases.
The new guy just wanted to type something. Trying very hard to be knowledgeable.
