With the advancements of LLM-based tooling, the responsibilities (and maybe even the title!) of data engineers is changing.

## Origin

1313
Before we talk about the changes, let's reflect on the inception of data engineering.

The practice of data engineering, and the need for dedicated roles, was born out of complexity, and the need for someone to manage it.

With an explosion in data volumes, and an increase in tools to manage it, a domain-specific engineer was born with a specialized set of skills.

Some of these engineers came from the world of database administration, others from software engineering, and some from analytics.

But, while the tools and challenges that these engineers solved changed, the underlying need for their work remained the same: to support the answering of questions.

The wrangling of data, storage, processing, and everything in-between was done out of necessity so that you, or some stakeholder, could make sense of it.

## Context

3232
We're reaching another inflection point where the underlying tools are evolving.

This time, we're seeing an emergence of systems that can make sense of large volumes of data, however the new complexity is that these systems rely on carefully managed metadata, or _context_.
34-
This context can store how data is loaded, how it's transformed, and how it's queried.

You no longer have to write the tool-specific code to interface with various APIs, nor the queries to make sense of it.
3636
You just have to ensure that the information is present and curated.
