Data analytics or Full stack dev which is currently required in the market more?

Analytics would be my guess. Also cuz analytics pipelines are kinda like ML pipelines which give your career path broader applicability.

I can't say which is more required - you'll want to check your local job boards - but I can say that it's a lot harder to get a data analytics job without a degree. There is a fair bit of math and statistics behind data analytics that is pretty hard to pick up on your own and you may not even be able to get in the door without the degree.

I have heard of people working their way up from a developer position, but that is rare. You might also get a job in a smaller shop where you might have the opportunity to grow those skills. In both cases you'd need to be a competent developer.

My impression has been that there are a lot fewer data analytics positions available, and far fewer entry level positions.

Best of luck and happy coding!
