@helenanders26 you are on fire 🔥, there needs to be a 🦄 for comments like this!

After an intense year with a consulting firm in an aws sandbox, (where we didn't have database access). I am really starting to appreciate SQL again. Simple aggregations in the database can have a massive impact on pipeline performance!

I can say I feel like I work at a very small, dare I say startup, inside of a big company. Many days I wear all hats from analyst to dev ops, cloud engineer, data engineer. It definitely pays to have a bit of skill everywhere in order to keep your projects moving. I love the idea of the T model.

I am really good/bad at solving every problem with code... It's my hammer
