Hi all! Data scientist here, trying professionalise a group of hobby programmers who’ve somehow found ourselves doing it for a living. The programming we know; it’s the infrastructure we’re lacking. None of us knows how to organise a programming team, myself very much included.
Can anyone recommend resources, books, courses on software engineering suitable for data scientists?
They ought to have a manger/team lead interested in managing. An ad-hoc approach can only get you so far.
Though, you seem to be asking more about Devops than management. If you’re making a startup, just cobble an MVP together using as little custom-built tools as possible and redo it if/when you get enough investment to be able to take the time and pay for the necessary resources to do it right and maintain it. You’re going to want to redo your first version anway, better to not waste time and effort on complex solutions even if they’re more appealing. Saas is your friend.
