Modern data teams rely on the analytics engineer, a role between data engineering and analysis that turns raw data into clean, trustworthy datasets ready for reporting. Understanding how that work fits together helps anyone who works with data speak the same language. In this beginner-friendly course, Alice Zhao introduces the fundamentals of analytics engineering, with no coding or prerequisites required. Explore how the role compares to data engineers and data analysts, and trace how data flows from source systems to a final dashboard.
