0












$begingroup$


I know a Mechanical Engineering graduate , who is working as Data Analyst for past 2 years.



As a Data Analyst he has worked mostly with Microsoft Excel, And now with no Programming knowledge he is planning to switch his career to become a Data Engineer.



How to become a good Data Engineer ? What are the prerequisites ?




  • Should he have Bachelors degree in Computer Science or any online certification from sites like Udemy or Udacity will do ?

  • Or Is it good do MS degree in Data Engineer ?

  • What programming Languages and Tools he has to learn ?

  • How much time its going to take to get his first Job as a Data Engineer ?


Any Suggestions would be great.
