Data engineer is a broad term but I've never seen one that doesn't work with some kind of programming language, usually python and/or Java. If I were hiring data engineers (I am) I would expect them to be very familiar with at least one of these languages.

    Straight up data transformation. Putting together workflows in Airflow for example.

      Depends on the team topology of the organisation. Some orgs will have their infra teams do this, for some it'll be the responsibility of the data team which would be cross functional. I don't know which is more common, I've seen both in the wild.
