In this episode, I’m talking with Tom Schamberger from the German consultancy msg. He leads their cloud data platform team and has a super interesting background: started coding Java at 12, co-founded startups, and now helps big companies design scalable data platforms.
We talk about:
What it really takes to be successful in data engineering consulting
Why soft skills matter just as much as tech skills
How consulting projects actually work — from Excel chaos to full platforms
The role of tools like Databricks, Snowflake, and Microsoft Fabric
And why being tool-agnostic might be your biggest advantage
If you're curious about consulting, data platforms, or just want to hear what a data engineer's job looks like behind the scenes, dive right into it!
