Roles in Data Science: Data Analyst vs Data Scientist vs ML Engineer
Roles in Data Science
I used to think all roles are same. But they are different in focus.

- Data Scientist: experiments + modeling + insights
- ML Engineer: production pipelines + deployment + reliability
Many companies blend roles. But learning path becomes easier once you know what you’re targeting.
