It is no more a secret today that the key to a successful business is a data driven decision making.
[8]
Data lies at the heart of the decision-making
process of all the organizations today and
[13]
that has prompted the evolution of data-based
job roles in the industry like Data Analysts,
[17]
Data engineer and Data scientists.
[19]
Hey guys I'm Shubham from Intellipaat, and
I welcome you all to this video on the key
[23]
differences between the top three Data based job roles such as Data Analysts, Data engineer &
[27]
Data scientists.
[28]
There is a large amount of vagueness when it comes to the use of these titles which creates a lot of
[34]
confusions.
[35]
Moving on with the video, let's clear out
all the confusions and find out how are these
[38]
job titles different from each other.
[40]
So, without any further ado, let's get started.
[43]
Brief description of each Job role
Let's begin the session by first understanding
[49]
who is a Data Analyst?
[51]
A data analyst is the one that gathers, investigates and represents data in a way so that everyone
[57]
can understand it.
[58]
The Data that is gathered by Data Analysts usually comes from a single source.
[62]
They are responsible for cleaning, Organizing and translating raw data into actionable business
[67]
insights, which are further used by the organization to make data driven decisions.
[72]
Data visualization is a vital part of their
professional day to day routine.
[76]
Next is Data Engineer
Data engineers are the ones who are responsible
[80]
for building and optimizing the systems that are needed by the data scientists and Data
[84]
analysts to perform their tasks.
[86]
They construct Data pipelines for the organizations, meaning that they ensure that the data is
[91]
accessible to anyone who needs to work on it.
[93]
Along with that, the primary responsibilities
of Data engineer include, ensuring that the
[98]
data is properly received, transformed and stored along with building infrastructure
[102]
or framework necessary for data generation.
[105]
Data engineers and data scientists work closely together, and as a result, many interchanges
[110]
these two roles.
[112]
Data engineers report to data scientists with "big data" that they prepare in order
[116]
to be analyzed by the scientist.
[118]
Coming to the next Job title, that is Data
Scientist.
[121]
So, a data scientist is a professional who
analyses the data strictly from a business
[126]
point of view and is responsible for delivering
the predictions that aid in business value.
[131]
They deal with both structured and unstructured
data.
[134]
The job of Data scientists doesn't end there,
they are also expected to identify the right
[139]
arenas of data from where they can find relevant
patterns so as to help in case any business-related
[145]
problem arises.
[146]
They extensively use machine learning for
their prediction purposes, so training and
[151]
optimizing data models is a vital part of
their professional day to day routine.
[156]
Although Data Scientist can perform most of
the tasks that Data Analysts perform, but
[160]
data scientists are different in terms of
source of the data that they work on, that
[164]
is, the data may come from multiple and disconnected
sources.
[168]
They are also more adept to making better
business judgments.
[175]
Job Roles and Responsibilities
The Job roles and responsibilities of a Data
[179]
analyst lies around
>Collecting and Interpreting the data from
[182]
the source, analyzing the results using statistical
techniques.
[186]

[236]
the data.
[237]
> To build the data pipelines
> Creating and Integrating APIs
[240]
>To develop the data set processes for
data modelling, mining and production.
[244]
Next is the job role of a data scientist
>Their main job role revolves around selecting
[250]
features, building, and optimizing classifiers by using the machine learning techniques.
[255]

[271]
predictive algorithms
Skillset and the Educational Qualification
[274]
Moving forward, now that we are clear as to
what these job roles actually mean, let's
[279]
compare them on the basis of the skill set
and the educational qualification that you
[282]
will need to start a career in these job roles.
[285]
Going with the same order as before, let's
start off by discussing the skillset and educational
[290]
background needed for Data Analysts.
[292]
Basic programming knowledge in languages such as R, Python, SAS etc. is recommended here.
[298]
SQL/ Data base knowledge, and the knowledge
in any data visualization tools such as Tableau,
[303]
Qlikview and PowerBI would be an added advantage for you.
[306]
A Bachelor's degree in computer science, math, statistics, information management or economics
[313]
would be enough for you to start your career as a Data Analyst.
[315]
Now, for Data Engineers.
[318]
Major skills measured for this profile, like
experience in Hadoop, MapReduce, Pig, Hive
[323]
programming, Data Streaming.
[324]
Since they are architect and caretaker, their role mainly concentrates on database systems,
[328]
with an exhaustive knowledge in SQL and NoSQL database.
[333]
The knowledge in both of these technologies is essential if you want to expand your career
[337]
horizon over the data engineering domain.
[341]
Bachelor's degree in computer science, software engineering, applied math or statistics.
[349]
Master's degree is not at all mandatory,
but serves as an added advantage.
[355]
Alright!
[356]
Now we have Data Scientist, the job of a data scientist requires both strong business acumen
[362]
and advanced data visualization competencies.
[364]
Their conclusions must narrate a clear and compelling story to serve business needs.
[370]
For that, proficiency in any programming languages such as Python, R, Java, C/C++ or SAS are
[377]
must.
[378]
Also, you must be acquainted with the skill sets in latest technologies such as Big data Hadoop,
[384]
machine learning or deep learning.
[385]
And as far as Education qualification is concerned, a bachelor's degree in computer science or
[390]
software engineering, math, or statistics
is preferred.
[393]
However, Master's degree would come as an added advantage for you because if we look
[397]
into current scenarios, half of all the data
scientists hold PHD's.
[404]
And if we talk about the type of COMPANIES HIRING for these positions, well
[408]
Since in IT Industries everything is about
data, there is always a need for each of these
[412]
roles.
[413]
So, more than 100+ MNC's and startups are actively hiring for the job roles of data
[418]
analyst, data engineer and data scientist
in order to solve the data-driven problems
[423]
and making the decisions based on the analytics.
[425]
