Skills that raise your pay

• Machine learning in production

  Building models that run inside real products, not just in notebooks. This is the bridge to machine learning engineer pay.

• Cloud data platforms

  AWS (Amazon Web Services), Azure or Google Cloud certificates. Banks want them.

• SQL (the language for querying databases) at an expert level

  Unglamorous, and the skill most junior data scientists are weakest at.

• A domain

  Finance, health, retail or insurance. Knowing the business doubles your value.
