Prompt Engineering in itself does not warrant a separate job.

Most of the things you see online related to prompts (especially things said by people selling courses) is mostly just writing some crazy text to get ChatGPT to do some specific task. Most of these prompts are just been found by serendipity and are never used in any company. They may be fine for personal usage but no company is going to pay a person to try out prompts ๐Ÿ˜…. Also a lot of these prompts don't work for any other LLMs apart from ChatGPT.

You have mostly two types of jobs in this field nowadays, one is more focused on training, optimizing and deploying models. For this knowing the architecture of LLMs is critical and a strong background in PyTorch, Jax and HuggingFace is required. Other engineering skills like System Design and building APIs is also important for some jobs. This is the work you would find in companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere etc.

The other is jobs where you build applications using LLMs (this comprises of majority of the companies that do LLM related work nowadays, both product based and service based). Roles in these companies are called Applied NLP Engineer or ML Engineer, sometimes even Data Scientist roles. For this you mostly need to understand how LLMs can be used for different applications as well as know the necessary frameworks for building LLM applications (Langchain/LlamaIndex/Haystack). Apart from this, you need to know LLM specific techniques for applications like Vector Search, RAG, Structured Text Generation. This is also where some part of your role involves prompt engineering. Its not the most crucial bit, but it is important in some cases, especially when you are limited in the other techniques.

โšก Parallelism In Databricks โšก

1๏ธโƒฃ DEFINITION

Parallelism = running many tasks ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ at the same time
(instead of one by one ๐Ÿข).
In Databricks (via Apache Spark), data is split into
๐Ÿ“ฆ partitions, and each partition is processed
simultaneously across worker nodes ๐Ÿ’ป๐Ÿ’ป๐Ÿ’ป.

2๏ธโƒฃ KEY CONCEPTS

๐Ÿ”น Partition = one chunk of data ๐Ÿ“ฆ
๐Ÿ”น Task = work done on a partition ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ
๐Ÿ”น Stage = group of tasks that run in parallel โš™๏ธ
๐Ÿ”น Job = complete action (made of stages + tasks) ๐Ÿ“Š

3๏ธโƒฃ HOW IT WORKS

โœ… Step 1: Dataset โžก๏ธ divided into partitions ๐Ÿ“ฆ๐Ÿ“ฆ๐Ÿ“ฆ
โœ… Step 2: Each partition โžก๏ธ assigned to a worker ๐Ÿ’ป
โœ… Step 3: Workers run tasks in parallel โฉ
โœ… Step 4: Results โžก๏ธ combined into final output ๐ŸŽฏ

4๏ธโƒฃ EXAMPLES

# Increase parallelism by repartitioning
df = spark.read.csv("/data/huge_file.csv")
df = df.repartition(200) # โšก 200 parallel tasks

# Spark DataFrame ops run in parallel by default ๐Ÿš€
result = df.groupBy("category").count()

# Parallelize small Python objects ๐Ÿ“‚
rdd = spark.sparkContext.parallelize(range(1000), numSlices=50)
rdd.map(lambda x: x * 2).collect()

# Parallel workflows in Jobs UI โšก
# Independent tasks = run at the same time.

5๏ธโƒฃ BEST PRACTICES

โš–๏ธ Balance partitions โ†’ not too few, not too many
๐Ÿ“‰ Avoid data skew โ†’ partitions should be even
๐Ÿ—ƒ๏ธ Cache data if reused often
๐Ÿ’ช Scale cluster โ†’ more workers = more parallelism

====================================================

โ” Interview question

What is an S3 storage and what is it used for?

Answer: S3 (Simple Storage Service) is a cloud-based object storage service designed for storing any type of files, from images and backups to static websites.

It is scalable, reliable, and provides access to files via URLs. Unlike traditional file systems, S3 does not have a folder hierarchy โ€” everything is stored as objects in "buckets" (containers), and access can be controlled through policies and permissions.
