Description

Tristan talks with Mikkel Dengsøe, co-founder at SYNQ, to break down what agentic coding looks like in analytics engineering. Mikkel walks through a hands-on project using Cursor, the dbt MCP server, Omni’s AI assistant, and Snowflake. They cover where agents shine (staging, unit tests, lineage-aware checks), where they’re risky (BI chat for non-experts), and how observability is shifting from dashboards to root-cause explanations.
