Ask HN: What problem should I solve to establish myself as a Data Engineer?
1 point by double_h on Nov 7, 2017 | hide | past | favorite
I have built web backends extensively. I want to move towards data engineering which (in my opinion) means solving problems that involve high data volumes and building scalable data pipelines.

Can you suggest a problem that I can solve as a side project to claim that title?

[for context, some stuff I built in recent past: https://medium.com/@hrshasan]
