Ask HN: How often do you write custom SQL reports at your job?
At the last startup company I worked at as a backend dev, I was frequently asked to build SQL queries for the marketing, operations, and customer service teams. Typically, they would then dump the results into a spreadsheet and build charts or dashboards there.

I'm curious if you've experienced this as well, or does your startup just use a BI tool like Looker or Tableau for this?

I really enjoy writing SQL, but I'm not sure how marketable of a skill it is with all of the data analysis tools that are out there. Thanks!
