Agentic Loops in the Data Stack: From Pipeline Failure to Auto-Remediation

About this event

Data Engineers in Toronto January 2027 Semimonthly Meeting

Topic: Agentic Loops in the Data Stack: From Pipeline Failure to Auto-Remediation

Abstract:
Every data engineer knows the 2 AM pipeline failure, the one nobody notices until Friday's report is wrong.

In this session, we break down five AI agents that are changing how data teams operate: from monitoring pipelines 24/7 and catching schema drift at ingestion, to closing the gap between a production failure and its root cause in minutes. We'll walk through real implementation patterns, including a baseline-learning monitoring agent and a tool-use driven incident response loop, and discuss what the shift to agentic data engineering actually means for the way teams are built and how engineers grow. Whether you're evaluating agents for your platform or already running them in production, you'll leave with concrete patterns you can apply immediately.

Speaker: Varun Joshi, Senior Data Engineer at AWS

Bites & Brilliance in Yaletown | Anniversary Brunch for Women in Tech

Vancouver, BC, Vancouver, Canada
In person

A year ago, we hosted our first Thread brunch because we truly believe that some of the best ideas start with good coffee, delicious food, and the right women around the table. Join us for our anniversary brunch with other local women in tech and beyond to connect, swap stories, and enjoy great conversation. Bring your appetite, and we handle the vibe. ⚠️ Limited to 25 guests. If you RSVP, we are counting on you as another woman in tech might miss her chance. 🌹 The Thread RSVP Code By registering, you commit to honoring your word and showing up in person. A lot of care goes into planning every Thread event. Last-minute cancellations or no-shows impact hosts, venue partners, and the quality of our gatherings. If you cannot attend, please cancel at least 48 hours in advance so another person can take your spot. No-shows are tracked to protect the quality of the experience. Thank you for helping us raise the standard of in-person meetups. 📸 Photography & Video Photos and videos may be taken during Thread events. By attending, you consent to their use across The Thread’s social media, website, and channels. If you prefer not to appear in event photos or videos, please let the host or photographer know and avoid joining group photos. About The Thread Vancouver The Thread is a grassroots, volunteer-led initiative connecting international women+ across Greater Vancouver’s tech and startup scene through in-person gatherings, practical upskilling, shared opportunities, and leadership pathways. We value real-life connection, generosity, and honoring our word.

Google Agentic AI Builder Lab

Vancouver, Canada · Vancouver Enterprise AI
In person

Important: Register on the event website or on luma is required for admission. RSVP on meetup is turned off. Building Next Gen Autonomous Agentic Systems with Google - Vancouver Join Google and AICamp for an intensive, 90-minute in-person build lab where theory translates directly into functional software. Most AI tutorials stop at simple single-turn prompts, but scalable systems require autonomous agents that reason over live data, manage persistent context, and execute complex multi-step tasks. In this hands-on workshop, you will step beyond conversational interfaces to architect, configure, and deploy next-generation autonomous agentic systems using Google Cloud. Bring your laptop! This is an active engineering session with zero local setup required. You will leave with a fully functioning system running in your cloud environment. What We'll Do: Autonomous Task Orchestration: Configure multi-step agent workflows that plan, reason, and act across complex task flows. State & Tool Integration: Connect agent architectures to cloud tools, execution environments, and live datasets. Resilient System Design: Implement robust patterns built to manage complex runtime inputs, long-running processes, and error recovery. Agenda: \- 5:00pm\~5:30pm: Checkin\, food and networking \- 5:30pm\~7:30pm: Hands\-on workshop/Code labs \- 7:30pm\~8:00pm: Build your own projects \- 8:00pm\~8:30pm: Demo\, Open discussion and Mixer Hands-on Workshop: Building Resilient Asynchronous Agents Moving beyond conversational chatbots requires systems that do more than predict the next token. Real-world autonomous architectures must plan multi-step operations, interface with external tools, maintain state across asynchronous operations, and recover cleanly from runtime failures. In this intensive 90-minute, in-person masterclass hosted by Google and AICamp, you will move directly into active engineering. Working entirely inside Google Cloud Shell, you will build and deploy a next-generatio
