Data Engineering jobs Johannesburg

What is a data engineer?

The growth of "big data" is reshaping the business world, and as a result, there is a growing demand for data engineers who can collect and manage enormous data sets.

Data engineering focuses on building infrastructures for large-scale data gathering, archiving, and analysis. It's an expansive field with applications across various industries.

While organizations can amass enormous amounts of data, this is of limited value unless they also possess the resources to thoroughly cleanse and prepare this information for usage by data scientists and analysts.

Being a data engineer gives you the opportunity to make a difference while also making data scientists' jobs easier. Machine learning and deep learning wouldn't be where they are now if it weren't for data engineers who analyse and channel that data. Here we’ll explain all there is to know about data engineering jobs in Johannesburg.

Teams of data engineers are commonly employed by larger firms, with some engineers specializing in data pipeline design and construction and others in data warehouse management, which includes tasks such as importing data and building table schemas to keep track of its multiple locations.
