After years of experience, one gets a chance to become an analyst and then business analyst, who performs complex tasks like data mining, programming, use of advanced statistics, business process handling, and data engineering. One who gets a prior knowledge of these domains, you get a chance to shift for the next job role as a data architect, where one has to work on data warehousing, data cleaning, and data modelling. Your job role may vary from organization to organization and there are no set rules under work environment.

By the name of the job role, you must be aware that a data scientist needs to deal with a large amount of data and one need to be technically fit to understand and analyze the data. You shall be taught with the basics of programming languages during the initial stages of your learning.
