Not too familiar with the data-this, data-that space. What does a data engineer do? What does a data scientist do? Does either code?
- amrrs 9y agoYes, Ideally, A data scientist works on creating the model or logic while a Data Engineer works on the part of deploying the same.
- ct0 9y agoThey both code. The engineer would pull the data from various sources and structure it in a way that the data scientist is happy with. (Tidy format) The DS would the code the models based on the engineer's work, which takes considerably less time.
- altstar 9y agoIn our environment, the scientist builds the models, the engineer makes them run. Both can code (the scientist to build models, the engineer to execute models).
- RHSman2 9y agoOne does math based hypothesis’s and the other moves data around and compute’s hypothesis’. Making a dashboard is not data science. At all.
