We’re in the Middle of a Data Engineering Talent Shortage
Whenever I see these posts I immediate translate them in my head to &quot;we&#x27;re in the middle of a talent shortage at a price I am willing to pay.&quot;<p>I&#x27;ve worked with very large amounts of data and high performance computing for most of my career; I mostly had finance related jobs in the last decade or so. I have most of the skill you want, including some you don&#x27;t know you want. However when salary comes up, that is where we start to part ways. If you are really serious about a shortage, you should be really serious about making offers that can be competitive, but I keep seeing the same $150k offers. That isn&#x27;t a &quot;shortage&quot; kind of offer.
