Big data is a dynamic field that finds businesses and organizations capturing massive amounts of information at an alarming speed, all of which will be analyzed and used to help make important decisions. A data engineer creates the massive reservoirs needed to collect big data. These IT professionals develop, construct, test, and maintain architectures, such as databases and large-scale data processing systems, which house big data. In this title, the emerging career field of a data engineer is explored. With the right mix of education and experience, data engineers can find themselves in high demand.

      Gr 7 Up-Some unique career titles in this set reflect a forward look at technology jobs that have immediate potential. User Interface and User Experience Engineer speaks to the fierce competition (especially in the personal device market) to satisfy customer demands, identify program flaws, and fix errors. Data Engineer focuses on the exponential growth of information and transactions, and how to store them. Some titles provide historical references (Charles Babbage, "Father of Computing," for one). Short worker profiles and day-in-the-life portions are welcome glimpses into the working conditions and preparation for the job. Vocabulary help is contextual, as in skeuomorphics (features not immediately noticeable in apps), hackathon (brainstorming via computer), and deconstructing engineering (taking things apart). STEAM skills are mentioned frequently in designing technology. VERDICT A slam dunk for secondary career and STEAM collections.
