What's up, Data Nerds! I was interested to learn more about what others are doing in some of the top jobs in data science. Specifically, I talk with some of my friends about the most common roles in this field of: Data Analyst, Data Scientist, Data Engineer, Machine Learning (ML) Engineer, and Data Science Manager. They share details about what they do day-to-day in their job and also how they recommend getting these types of jobs!
