What we’re about
With dbt, data analysts and engineers can build analytics the way engineers build applications.
We will predominantly focus on people's experience with dbt, but will also discuss broader topics related to data teams, such as data stacks, data ops, modeling, testing, and team structures.
If you work with data, this group is for you! We welcome data analysts, scientists, engineers, architects, and more!!

Refactoring dbt the Hard Way: Lessons Learned While Rebuilding Our Project Structure
Speaker: Olga Surkova (Senior Data Analyst at Keepit)
Refactoring a large dbt project isn’t just about renaming models - it’s about understanding what went wrong and redesigning for long-term scalability. In this talk, learn how the team at Keepit approached a full-scale dbt refactor, the challenges they faced, and what they learned along the way. You’ll see real examples of DAG restructuring, Jinja pattern improvements, and validation checks that kept everything running smoothly. -
