Hi, I'm
Andreas Kretz
Your Data Influencer, Instructor & Coach
I’m a Senior Data Engineer, trainer, and content creator with a strong focus on Data & AI. After starting out as a self-taught engineer and later leading a data team in industry, I built Learn Data Engineering to help others grow through practical, hands-on learning.
​
Today, my work goes beyond the Academy. I collaborate with companies on media campaigns, run a podcast, host livestreams, create YouTube videos, and share daily insights with over 130k followers on LinkedIn. My goal is to make Data Engineering and AI more accessible, more practical – and more visible.
