Curious to hear this from the other side. I'm an SE manager interested in pivoting to Data Engineering. I've built modest pipelines in R / Postgres for an operations analyst job I did before I became a programmer, but I'm not experienced with most of the technologies I see listed on DE roles (e.g. Airflow) and my statistics etc. are rusty.
- shrumm 6y agoI see these experiences as nice-to haves. It just means you'll be able to hit the ground faster. Personally, I'd value someone who shows they can learn quickly. That said, it's trivial these days to spin up a few VM's, install Airflow and try some practice scenarios just to get your hands dirty.
