Welcome to your interview.
The question is on your right: Motivation for Data Engineering Work. Take a moment with it first.
Talk your thinking through with me if you like - when you're confident, submit your answer and I'll grade it like a real screen (7/10 or better passes). Discussion and graded submissions share your five interviewer interactions, so spend them well.
You're interviewing for a role focused on building and improving internal data platforms and pipelines. The interviewer wants to understand how you think about the user value behind data engineering work, not just the technical tasks.
What motivates you to work in data engineering?
