Intro

Christopher Garzon, Founder and CEO of Data Engineer Academy

Christopher shares his Big Tech insider's perspective on the prospects for the data engineering profession. He reveals how companies like Amazon and Lyft hire data engineers and why they can't seem to get enough, which might make breaking into Big Tech easier than other roles.

We also explore why he started Data Engineer Academy and how it helps professionals, even those without previous data or tech experience, land a job as a data engineer. Christopher walks through the selection process, the curriculum, the white-glove resume, job interview, and job-coaching services, and how his alumni have made it after completing the program.
