Episode Details

Interview I did with Matt Sharp, current data engineer at MX and data LinkedIn personality. We talk about Matt’s journey from chemical engineering to working at Intel Micron and becoming a data scientist, and finally switching into FinTech and becoming a data engineer. We talk about the difference between small companies and big companies and the pros and cons of each. We talk about what data engineering even is, the importance of projects, how LinkedIn can be used to be an intrepreneur and networking within your company, and more!
