Become a Data Engineer by Learning APIs, SQL, Python, Docker, Airflow, CI/CD, Functional/ Data Quality Tests and more!
InstructorMatthew Schembri
The curriculum provides a complete cycle from API extraction via YouTube to loading and transforming data within a PostgreSQL warehouse.
Instruction integrates essential engineering tools including Docker for containerization, Apache Airflow for orchestration, and SODA for data quality.
Learners have noted that code explanations can become brief during complex sections, and line number mismatches occur when edits are not explicitly shown. One signal from June 2026 suggests these issues exist, though the July 2026 update label does not prove a correction.
The technical complexity of the Docker and CI/CD sections may be overwhelming for those without a strong foundation in DevOps or advanced Python. One signal from February 2026 highlights this difficulty, though the July 2026 update label does not prove a correction.
The curriculum aligns with the target of aspiring data engineers, provided they meet the required Python and SQL prerequisites.
