The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
Build a Python data pipeline that extracts trending track data from the Spotify Web API, transforms it into a structured dataset, and produces a visual dashboard showing genre trends, audio feature distributions, and artist popularity patterns.
This is not a coding exercise. It is the work a software engineer does between a Jira ticket and a merged PR. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates solve LeetCode problems and none who have shipped production code under real constraints.
When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."
