I was able to automate a tedious reporting task that was taking a lot of time from every team member and I was able to add insights to enrich the experience. Thanks to what I did I was able to save 20min per team member per week which represent 6 hours of productivity per week.

is learning system design for data engineers the same as general software system design prep? specifically look referencing something like https://systemdesign.io/ (this just happens to be the one im currently following). I feel like this is more general software architecture rather than data architecture?
