What is the Pragmatic ML Engineering Career Frameworks course about?

As organizations acquire ML startups and embed data science teams, the lack of standardized career frameworks creates confusion in role expectations, promotion paths, and leadership escalation. This misalignment erodes motivation, slows integration, and diminishes ROI on technical talent. Existing models are either too academic or too generic to guide real-world assimilation at pace.
