Data Analyst
A data analyst is responsible for analysing

data and presenting it in a way that is useful

for making business decisions.

For example, a data analyst might be asked to

analyse sales data for a company to

understand which products are selling well

and which are not. They might use tools like

Excel and SQL to extract the data from a

database, and then use visualization tools like

Power BI to create charts and graphs to help

communicate their findings to the company's

management team.

Data Engineer

Focuses on the infrastructure and tools

needed to store, process, and analyse large

amounts of data.

For example, a data engineer might be asked

to build a system to collect and store data

from sensors on a manufacturing plant's

equipment. They might design and build a

pipeline that captures the data from the

sensors in real-time, stores it in a database,

and makes it available for analysis by other

teams.

Data Scientist

Finally, a data scientist combines the skills of

both a data analyst and a data engineer, with a

focus on using statistical and machine learning

techniques to analySe and understand

complex data sets.

For example, a data scientist might be asked to

predict how many customers a store will have

on a given day based on past data. They might

use machine learning techniques to analyse

data on factors such as weather, holidays, and

past sales to build a predictive model that can

make an educated guess on future customer

traffic.
