Do Data Engineering jobs require you to have knowledge of statistics, machine learning, etc? Or can you get data engineering jobs where you are focused on connecting pipelines and data flow? I am interested in a data engineering job, but it appears a lot of data engineering jobs require machine learning expertise in job listings. I am interested in just a data engineering focused role.

Look for functional programming data engineering jobs e.g. Haskell, they might be what you're looking for, since most people don't run their algorithms in Haskell (some do!) and use it as a duct tape/pipe.
