A Big Data Engineer prepares data for analytical or operational uses. Their primary roles include building data pipelines to collect information from various sources, integrating, combining, cleaning, and using data for individual analytics applications. Their role evolves from collecting and storing data to transforming, labeling, and optimizing data.

Big Data Engineers often work with data scientists who run queries and algorithms against the collected information for predictive analysis. They also work with business units to deliver data aggregations to executives. Big Data Engineers commonly work with both structured and unstructured data sets, for which they must be well-versed in different data architectures, applications, and programming languages such as Spark, Python, and SQL.

These Big Data courses developed in collaboration with IBM will give you insights into the Hadoop ecosystem, Big Data engineering tools, and methodologies to prepare you for success in your role as a Big Data Engineer. The industry-recognized certification from IBM and Simplilearn will attest to your new skills and on-the-job expertise.
