Every data team should have at least one data engineer with a software engineering background. This time on The Data Engineering Show, Xiaoxu Gao is an inspiring Python and data engineering expert with 10.6K followers on Medium. She’s a data engineer at Adyen with a software engineering background, and she met the bros to talk about why both software and data engineering skills are so important.Without software engineering skills you’ll be limited to the rigid capabilities of your stack. But without data engineering skills you’ll find it hard to be cost effective and see the bigger picture.
