Data Engineering Automation in the World of Agentic AI

Join us for the USF Data Science Speaker Series, featuring Deep Patel, Staff Data Engineer at Robinhood!

Learn how AI agents are changing the way data engineers build and operate data analytics. This session explores using agents to generate and maintain pipelines, investigate failures, monitor data quality, automate testing and documentation, and create reusable workflows and guardrails for safely scaling AI-assisted data engineering.

How to Crack Data Engineering Interviews
A practical guide to preparing for modern data engineering interviews, covering data modeling, system design, ETL and streaming architectures, data quality, SLAs, CDC, scalability, and common trade-offs.
The session also explains how to structure answers, reason through ambiguous business problems, and approach end-to-end design interviews effectively.
