I tend to ask questions more about database internals, but it's a crucial job for an engineer to understand how to get performance and integrity for their queries.

Sometimes times you may get world-class DBA/DBE (my current employer is one of those places) who can do an engineer's job (in terms of tuning the queries, etc...) but that is really an engineer's job.
