What does the Data Engineer Path cover?

  • Last updated on July 7, 2023 at 7:23 PM

This path teaches you how to build data pipelines for large datasets. Data engineers build and optimize the systems that allow data scientists and analysts to perform their work. Every company depends on its data to be accurate and accessible to individuals who need to work with it.

Data engineers ensure that any data is properly received, transformed, stored, and made accessible to other users. It currently covers processing large datasets in pandas, optimizing code performance, and how different data types can help speed up your analysis.

This path is relatively new and still in beta — we're currently releasing courses in an iterative rollout (i.e., we add new courses as we complete them).
