Job description
Stop waiting for the right opportunity. In 9 weeks, go from data-aware developer to a fully deployed Data Engineer - paid from day one, trained on real tools, and placed on Fortune 1000 client projects., You already write code. You work with data. You know SQL and Python aren't just buzzwords - they're tools you use daily. What you haven't had yet is the structured path to go from writing scripts and queries to engineering the data pipelines, warehouses, and big data systems that power real enterprise operations., * Apache Spark, Hadoop, Hive, Kafka & Airflow pipelines
- Snowflake, BigQuery, and modern cloud data warehousing
- ETL/ELT pipeline design, orchestration, and optimization
- Batch and real-time streaming data architectures
- Data modeling, schema design, and governance best practices
- Docker, Kubernetes, and containerized data workflows
Cloud platforms & AI tooling
- AWS, Azure, and GCP - data and ML services
- CI/CD pipelines and DevOps for data engineering
- NoSQL databases: MongoDB, Cassandra, and DynamoDB
- Data security, GDPR, HIPAA, and compliance requirements
- AI-assisted development with GitHub Copilot & Claude AI
- Agile, Scrum, and enterprise delivery workflows
Program timeline
Weeks 1-2
Python, SQL, and data engineering foundations - pipelines, APIs, and OOP at scale
Weeks 3-4
Big Data tooling - Spark, Kafka, Airflow, Hadoop, Hive, and cloud data platforms
Weeks 5-6
Cloud data warehousing - Snowflake, BigQuery, AWS/Azure/GCP data services
Weeks 7-8
Advanced pipelines, streaming architectures, DevOps, CI/CD, and data security
Requirements
- Have 1+ year of professional coding experience - Python and SQL used regularly at work
- Understand data at a technical level - queries, schemas, pipelines, not just dashboards
- Know OOP concepts and can write structured, maintainable code
- Have exposure to cloud platforms or big data tooling - even at a basic level
- Are ready to go deep on AI/ML engineering, not just learn the buzzwords
- Are willing to relocate to Atlanta, GA for training and to client sites for project assignments, * Python: 1+ year of Python as a core part of your job - scripts, pipelines, automation, or data processing
- SQL: Proficient SQL - JOINs, aggregations, subqueries, and working with real databases professionally
- Data: Hands-on data wrangling experience - cleaning, transforming, and handling messy real-world datasets
- Git: Git version control in a team environment - branching, pull requests, and collaborative workflows
- APIs: REST API experience in Python - hitting endpoints, parsing JSON, handling authentication
- OOP: Solid understanding of OOP - classes, inheritance, interfaces used in real production code
- Stats: Basic statistics - distributions, mean/median/std dev, and understanding what data is telling you
- Location: Willingness to relocate to Atlanta, GA for training and travel to client sites for project placements
Highly preferred - fast-tracks your application
- Big data tooling exposure: Spark, Kafka, Airflow, Hadoop, Hive, or Flink
- Cloud platform experience: AWS, Azure, or GCP - especially data or storage services
- Data warehouse or BI tool experience: Snowflake, BigQuery, Tableau, or Power BI
- NoSQL database experience: MongoDB, Cassandra, DynamoDB, or similar
- DevOps basics: CI/CD pipelines, Docker, or containerized data environments
- Active GitHub profile with Python scripts, ETL projects, or data pipeline work
- Familiarity with data governance, GDPR, HIPAA, or security compliance requirements
Education
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related quantitative field
- Strong candidates from non-traditional backgrounds with demonstrable Python and data engineering experience are also considered, Strong English communication skills (written and verbal) are required for all client-facing roles.
