summary
Claim: Genpact reports 1800 data engineers and acquired Enquiro in Jan 2021 to scale data work. Focused roles include data orchestration services, data architecture/governance (data lakes, lineage, master/metadata) and strategy advisory. Practical skills emphasized are Python and SQL, data modeling, RDBMS, big‑data and cloud platforms, plus algorithms and flowchart thinking. Concrete exercise suggested is building enterprise data‑integration proofs using public sets such as Home Credit (Kaggle) and Santander to show end‑to‑end pipelines and quality rules.
