Most AI agent demos never touch a real pipeline.
Ours does, and it gets scored on it.
On 26 August in Antwerp, we're running a hackathon built specifically around data engineering work: pipelines, SQL, debugging, data quality. Every participant gets the same fixed model, no fine-tuning, no swapping it out. What decides your score is the agent harness you build and the context you feed it.
No demos, no slides explaining why your approach should work in theory.
Come solo or bring a team, both work fine, and honestly, a team makes for a more fun night.
If you want to get your harness and context strategy sharper first, there's also a free Agent Skills workshop the week before, on 19 August. Sign-up on the same event page, so look for it if that's useful to you.
