Curriculum
This is what you learn in our Data Engineering Bootcamp

Build your foundation in Python and SQL
Kickstart your journey with advanced Python programming and data modeling techniques. You’ll dive deep into data structures, functional coding, performance tuning, and error handling — then transition into advanced SQL queries, relational modeling, normalization, and optimization strategies. Your learning journey starts with more than just tech skills – it begins by building a strong foundation for success. In the first week, you’ll connect with your peers, learn how to work effectively in the course, explore the IT industry and career opportunities, and discover how to use (and not misuse) AI as a tool to support your growth.

Automate and scale with Docker, Airflow, and Prefect
In this phase, you'll containerize your apps with Docker and learn how to manage workflows using Airflow and Prefect. You’ll also be introduced to dbt to build modular, testable transformations in your data pipelines.

Design secure and scalable cloud pipelines
Learn the fundamentals of cloud computing with AWS. You’ll build cloud-native pipelines using Glue, Lambda, and S3, and explore data warehousing with Redshift. Topics include identity and access management, cost optimization, and best practices in cloud architecture.

Master Spark, PySpark, Kafka, and MongoDB
Work with large-scale datasets using Spark and PySpark, and implement real-time data solutions using Kafka. You’ll also gain hands-on experience with NoSQL databases like MongoDB and understand batch vs. stream processing use cases.

Develop a capstone project and prepare for the AWS certifcation
In your final phase, you’ll integrate all your knowledge into a capstone project — building and presenting a full-stack data platform. You’ll also learn about data governance, metadata, and quality frameworks, while using GitHub Actions and Terraform to automate and deploy infrastructure. This phase includes AWS certification prep and job readiness support.
