Yes, and Data Engineering is just Software Engineering "in disguise"
- rickette 4y agoExactly my thought.
- marcyb5st 4y agoWhile I agree with the premise, there's the added "complication" that knowledge or experience as a Data Scientist/ML Engineer it's highly beneficial. Pure SWEs, in my experience, struggle a bit in anticipating how Data Scientists will shoot themselves in the feet. Having experienced it yourself before it's a big plus.
- rldjbpin 4y agounderrated comment. of course i agree that there are specificities with mlops and data engineering that don't exist for a typical full-stack application. but if you boil it down enough, you just find the same underlying concepts.

- nerdponx 4y agoI guess I should clarify because I was downvoted. Data engineering involves a lot of database work. So if ML engineering is largely data engineering, then it's also at least partially database administration, transitively.
