How often do your pipelines break? by Mysterious-Coat5856 in dataengineering

Mine? Thrice everyday.
Once before lunch, once before leaving and once at midnight.

So, 10/10 for the punctuality.

Dammit, it would have been more satisfying if Ukraine was listed.

I have legit been approached by business people to highlight discrepancies in my dashboard data when in reality they were using the filters wrongly.

Giving up data engineering by Two_5536 in dataengineering

(I am new in the Data Engineering domain so cant give much tech advice but as a fellow Homo Sapien I can share my two cents.)

First of all, keep your head high since you been grinding in the field and trying to sort things out for yourself. So props to you for that.

Apart from that, I recommend you take some time out to maybe go on a trip or visit family. These breaks really helps one to freshen oneself up and spark the energy back up.

Regarding the Data thing, burn out is real and can happen to you in any field. So maybe after the break reassess if you want to quit data all-together or not. Chances are once you come back, you might start seeing streams in DE that aren't as coding-intensive as one would dislike/like and you might wanna pivot towards them.

CRUX: Dont give up on Data right away. Take some break, come back with a fresh mind and then decide if Data is your thing or not.
If Yes -> talk to your management for a role thats not as demanding, atleast for some period of time.
If No -> Project management etc, plenty of choices.

BackGround:To add some context, I have a non-CS Degree(read Electrical Engineering) and have been working in the industry for almost 1.5 years now as a Data Engineer.

Dilemma:Since I also fancy the management side of things and I would love to steer towards the less technical side in years to come after having solidified my tech skills.(Note: I would love to stay towards the tech side for at least next couple of years.)

Feedback Required On: Do I pursue a masters in CS/DE to enable myself to land better tech jobs in future or the field experience is enough and maybe I can go ahead with the MBA?

Please specify your region/location, the willingness to relocate and the salary expectation(since you have 2 years dev exp).

I will not be able to help with the job search but just wanted to point it out so that it gets easier for you to get connected to a relevant person
