DESCRIPTION:As the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope started construc
 tion in July 2021\, we are also building a team of astronomers and enginee
 rs to build the data processing pipeline (the SKA Science Data Processor) 
 for the unprecedented amount of data that will arrive. The huge amount of 
 data to be generated calls for many challenges in the existing methods and
  algorithms in every aspect of radio astronomy. Here I am going to briefly
  introduce some of the work the Cambridge SKA Team has been conducting\, f
 rom developing the initial pipeline prototype of imaging to generating sim
 ulation data and developing quality assessment metrics to test the pipelin
 es. I will also list a few ways how the astronomy community can contribute
  to the initial development of SKA software.
