Title: Jannat’s Full Career Roadmap: Backend → Python → Data Science → ML

→ Deployment

PHASE 1: Backend / Web Engineer + Python


Basics (0–4 months)
Goal: Strong Java + Spring Boot foundation, SQL mastery, Python basics
ready for Data Science

Topics
1. Java + Spring Boot
 Controllers → handle user requests (GET / POST)
 Services → business logic
 Repositories → DB operations
 CRUD operations
 Relationships: 1-1, 1-M, M-M
2. SQL
 SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY, HAVING, CTEs, transactions
 Complex queries for business scenarios
3. Python Basics
 Variables, data types, loops, conditionals
 Functions
 File handling: CSV, JSON

Example Mini Project


 User Management System with Roles + CRUD + SQL DB
 Python scripts for CSV automation

Weekly Routine (Mon–Sat, Sun off)

PHASE 2: Data Science Foundation + Python


(4–8 months)
Goal: Python for data analysis, statistics + SQL integration, business insights

Topics
1. Python for Data: Pandas (DataFrames, merge, groupby, filter), Numpy,
Matplotlib/Seaborn
2. Statistics/Probability: mean, median, variance, probability distributions,
hypothesis testing, correlation
3. SQL Analytics: window functions, aggregations, time-based queries

development & testing

Daily Guidelines
1. Consistency > Intensity: 4–5 focused hrs/day
2. Sunday: Weekly review + plan next week
3. Always GitHub + documentation: version control + portfolio
4. Project focus: complete small projects each phase
5. Python usage: integrated in all phases (automation → analysis → ML →
deployment)

Summary: Career Flow


1. 0–4 months: Backend + Python basics → CRUD + small scripts project
2. 4–8 months: Python + Data Analysis + SQL + DS project
3. 8–14 months: ML models + predictive project using Python
4. 14–24 months: Production ML Engineer → API + Deployment + flagship
project
