The Future of Data Engineering Jobs: Careers That Don’t Exist Yet

Data engineering has quietly become one of the most crucial roles in modern technology. While data science and artificial intelligence often attract the headlines, it is data engineering that provides the foundation. By building pipelines, managing databases, and ensuring data quality, data engineers make it possible for organisations to analyse, innovate, and grow. In the UK, data engineering is booming.
