Data science, IT and software development become more and more complex and are subject to increasing requirements and fast-paced business demand. Higher complexity, higher pace and higher quality requirements result in more pressure on our fellow data engineers and data scientists.
More pressure, but are we resilient enough to withstand that increasing pressure? You have probably already seen its outcome. Unhappiness, stress or even burn-outs of co-workers, instead of creating cool code, great solutions and building a better world using your skills.
How to change the pressure and stress you perceive as a data scientist, data engineer of ML-engineer? How to ensure that your brain’s frontal lobe returns to a problem solving and decision-making state?
Target audience
All experience levels data engineers, data scientists and analysts. For those who start hitting do’s, don’ts and other hard walls in real life companies and projects. Especially if you experience a drain of energy and focus from those pressure and constrains. Senior or junior, there is much to learn and experience.
Takeaway
Learn and experience 3 great tools to change your resilience instantly and consistently towards pressure and stress. Not just for yourself, but also be able to see and assist co-workers, family, or other loved ones if they experience stress.

I love working with both technology and people. Currently working as a freelance data engineer and business intelligence specialist to satisfy the tech part of my heart. Fell in love with Python and the PyData modules in 2017 after unsuccessful relationships with Java and C++ in the past. Applying this in a variety of industries and companies.
In parallel, I’m creating CalmCode.nl for the past 1,5 years with the aim of guiding software developers, IT- and data specialists towards less stress and burnouts. I’ve seen to many bad examples in the larger companies and multi-nationals where developers almost looked as being oppressed instead of being able to do their work properly and in a nice environment. So the people-oriented part of my heart get’s fuelled when I see people grow and being able to take control of their lives again.
