In this episode, I talk with Andreas Kretz (https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreas-kretz/) who is an amazing resource for the data engineering community. He runs an incredibly affordable data engineering bootcamp called Learn Data Engineering (https://learndataengineering.com) and also has an extensive YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCY8mzqqGwl5_bTpBY9qLMAA).
We talked about how Andreas got started with data engineering, why he like it so much, and how others can get started. I also share my story of interviewing with Facebook for a data engineering position.
