What you should be able to do
Design reliable Python services
Structure data pipelines
Use Git and testing well
Understand model lifecycle
Every module is now a full lesson.
Python systems
Use Python as an engineering language rather than only a notebook language.
Data structures
Build a working mental model of Data structures then connect it to implementation evaluation and production trade-offs.
SQL
Query relational data accurately and reason about joins, grouping and performance.
APIs
Design stable service boundaries for data and model capabilities.
Git
Build a working mental model of Git then connect it to implementation evaluation and production trade-offs.
Testing
Build a working mental model of Testing then connect it to implementation evaluation and production trade-offs.
Linux
Build a working mental model of Linux then connect it to implementation evaluation and production trade-offs.
Cloud fundamentals
Build a working mental model of Cloud fundamentals then connect it to implementation evaluation and production trade-offs.
Projects that prove the skill
Feature pipeline
Use a baseline first then instrument the result and document failure cases.

design with cortex →Experiment tracker
Use a baseline first then instrument the result and document failure cases.
design with cortex →How progress is judged
Code quality
Evidence should come from code, results, explanation quality and the ability to identify when an approach should not be used.
Debugging
Evidence should come from code, results, explanation quality and the ability to identify when an approach should not be used.
System explanation
Evidence should come from code, results, explanation quality and the ability to identify when an approach should not be used.
