Data Scientist vs Data Analyst vs Data Engineer: What's the difference?

[@LouiWoodman]

Very understandable approach to explaining the differences in these roles. It's definitely appreciated, especially with the blurred lines that companies often use to represent these fields.

[@HaroutBlack]

Jesus is the only way to healing, restoration and salvation to all souls. Please turn to him and he will change your life, depression into delight, soul heading from hell to heaven all because of what he did on the cross “Whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” Romans 10:13

[@husnainahmad8261]

Most of these companies don't even know the difference between Computer Science, Software Engineering and Information technology . They think it's a same thing.

[@ilovebaking-v2v]

Mm.. but it kind of is. And tbh I think that there shouldn't really be a distinction made across the three, each should know a bit of the others.

[@cageman301]

I work as a Data Analyst / Engineer / Scientist as is the case with most people working in smaller companies. I don't excel at any of the three areas except maybe engineering because I'm the only one who does it on my team, not because I'm actually good at it. For every insight I find, someone else can find 5 more, for every model I build, someone else will always build a model with better performance. It drives me crazy but it is what it is I suppose. Another thing about working in smaller companies is that solutions are usually frowned upon because of the extra costs. It's annoying to have to write everything from scratch from pipelines to dashboards, but it's also a good learning experience.

[@aena5995]

is a bachelors in business data analytics worth it ( the program has machine learning business finance and a programming course aswell )or is something general like Econ or Computers better ? I wanna do a masters afterwards most probably in Computer science or IT

[@cageman301]

@@aena5995 Sounds like a good choice. I don't recommend going into pure Data Science courses simply because of how vast the field is. Having a narrower focus helps you carve out your own niche, and if business / finance is the area of Data Science you're personally interested in, go for it

[@RobertWF42]

Same here. Though I did work for a company that had a separate team of SQL programmers for preparing our data & another team that performed QA. By the time I got the data it was ready to plug into R or SAS.

[@mohit4902]

Data Science/Machine Learning/Data Engineering/Data Analyst roles are incredibly overhyped and actually are not very rewarding. The competition is insane and getting a job takes almost 18 months of grinding to break into the industry. Plus you need a masters in Data Science to actually be considered for most roles. But even despite that, you are not considered for most jobs if you don't have work experience. To add on top of that, there are insanely long hours and crazy work pressure, but relatively low pay in these fields,, You must choose your field smartly for the future - Java and Cybersecurity roles along with, network engineer, VLSI, and networking roles are always hiring. So are, product management, Salesforce, and PPM type of roles. Core fields are great but they just aren't that much in demand. Always choose IT or CS or Electrical/Networking and learn to code in Java or Javascript. You are pretty much guaranteed to get a high-paying job.

[@NCODEXMUSIC]

[@AviatorHan]

No. If you want to become a data scientist, let others do the data cleansing and IT diagnosis things. I was a victim of this - ex company paid me only one person's salary, while I did MLOps job + i18n + PPT making. It's not worth it unless they pay you enough.

[@thefourthbrotherkaramazov245]

@@AviatorHan not only that but "capable of everything" is not a good thing. Someone who is specialized will always perform better. Much better to make well functioning teams than thin out the skills of everyone and get sub par results for everything.

very valuable that it helps me to identify what project and skills in what order I have to learn first.

[@kimeg7294]

Companies nowadays prefer a generalist over a specialist who is super expert at one specific field only. This is why developers experience burn outs so often, they have almost no option but to spend a great portion of their time trying out new tech, and whatever they learn will most likely be replaced by "better" resources.

[@ianmutuma6564]

you're right, "unicorn" Data scientist is a thing now.

This video confirms what I've known for a long time: job titles in tech have little meaning. Mine sure as hell doesn't. My dad has two masters degrees in economics and works as a business/data analyst. He is an expert in a software program called SAS, which very few people know how to use. To this day, I'm not sure what he actually does as part of his day to day work.

[@Durio_zibethinus]

Ask him! Spread his wisdom to us 😆

[@kosprov69]

SAS is pretty much like pandas, as in you can build data pipelines with them. Its just that while python is open sourced, SAS has enterprise support and hence more stable and comes with things like customer support and so on. It is mostly just used in legacy code tho. Nowadays everyone's moving away from SAS.

[@sonyadeantonio]

Sas is just another code proprietary program for pulling and organizing data. The data sets are typically very large and can be cleaned fairly easily with sas
