AI Data Engineer Overview

Overview

Built for complexity. Designed for autonomy.

The Osmos AI Data Engineer for Databricks is an autonomous agent purpose-built for the Databricks Lakehouse Platform. It can generate fully functioning, production-grade PySpark notebooks tailored to your environment, with built-in testing, governance, and version control.

This means your team can move faster, reduce manual work, and build reliable data engineering pipelines directly inside Databricks.

🚀 What It Is

The AI Data Engineer is a purpose-built AI agent that generates thoroughly tested Python Spark notebooks tailored to your ETL and data engineering workloads. Whether working with relational databases, JSONs, or hundreds of interrelated CSVs, it autonomously engineers pipelines that are production-grade, versionable, and ready for reuse.

👥 Who It’s For

• Primary User Persona: Data Engineering Teams

• Secondary Personas: Data Services and Platform Engineering Teams

🛠️ How It Works

1. Connect securely to Databricks Configure the AI Data Engineer with the appropriate access credentials to your workspace, respecting your Unity Catalog and governance settings.

2. Describe the task Provide the agent with your requirements—data sources, schemas, transformation rules, or natural language descriptions.

3. Notebook generation The agent autonomously creates Databricks-ready PySpark notebooks, designed to run at scale and aligned with your workspace conventions.

4. Validation and deployment Every notebook is tested and version-controlled. You can schedule, orchestrate, and deploy within your existing Databricks workflows.

🎯 Why Use Osmos with Databricks?

• Production-ready notebooks: Automatically tested and validated.

• Governed and secure: Respects Databricks access controls—no external data movement.
