Too Long; Didn't Read
I interview Maxime Beauchemin, creator of Apache Airflow and Apache Superset, on the future of the data engineer. We ask if being a data engineer is still the worst seat at the table and identify 6 things changing the profession including:
1. The increasing speed of ETL and analytics
2. Increasing difficulty in gaining consensus on governance
3. Change management issues
4. Data immutability and transformation
5. Role specialization
6. Operational creep
