Ritika P.
Retail Data Engineer and ETL Developer
For years, I had been doing nightly ETL, but I had trouble scaling. The Hadoop/Spark blocks were the key, and the 168 hours of live sessions and 12-month cadence held me responsible. I rebuilt a Hive job in Spark, added appropriate partitioning, and scheduled it using Airflow based on input from my mentor. Our data freshness is no longer a daily battle, the pipeline is more straightforward, and it operates consistently. Good engineering practices are practiced in the labs; there are no magic bullets.
Arun M.
FinTech Data Platform Engineer → BI Developer
To stop shipping dashboards with shaky data, I joined. I was able to construct a lake-to-warehouse path with checkpoints and quality gates thanks to the Kafka modules on storage design, governance, and streaming. Although it felt laborious to document lineage and access controls, audits now proceed more quickly. I was able to take pieces directly to production because the capstone project—end-to-end ingestion to analytics—mirrored my day job so closely. The senior data engineers who taught the course were realistic and pushed for quantifiable results.
Shreya N.
A final-year computer science student
I wanted evidence that I was capable of more than just classwork. I processed in Spark, stored Parquet in a lake, set up an ingestion pipeline with Kafka, and exposed it to a warehouse for reporting in the big-data labs. My capstone’s GitHub repository includes the Airflow DAGs, tests, and README with run steps; in fact, interviewers inquired about choices like partition keys and file layout. Even though I’m just starting out, I can explain why my pipeline looks the way it does.
Meera K.
Aspiring Data Engineer, Recent ECE Graduate
I was concerned about Hadoop and SQL depth because I come from the electronics industry. It was manageable because of the order: data lifecycle → databases → Hadoop → Spark → cloud tools. I learned when a NoSQL store made sense, set up basic monitoring, and constructed a small batch pipeline before adding a straightforward streaming path. Although I’m not “senior” yet, I can create and manage a dependable pipeline on a cluster and am aware of where I need to make improvements. The NSQF Level-7 alignment helped me get through HR screening.
