The data engineering world in a nutshell: fancy tools vs. reality. On one side you've got the slick conference talk version—Airflow orchestration, dbt transformations, Dagster pipelines, Prefect workflows, and Dataform for that enterprise touch.

But good luck putting "Built scalable search engine for adult content discovery across Reddit's NSFW ecosystem" on your LinkedIn without your professional network having questions. HR departments everywhere just felt a disturbance in the force. Pro tip: Just call it a "content aggregation platform with advanced filtering capabilities" and pray nobody asks for a demo during the interview.
