Pipelines you can trust

Most data problems are not modelling problems. They are missing contracts, invisible lineage and nobody owning the moment a schema changed.

What the practice does

Explicit, versioned expectations between producer and consumer, enforced in CI rather than in a Slack thread.

Column-level lineage and freshness checks so an incident has a first suspect within minutes.

An honest read on warehouse cost, model sprawl and where your platform is quietly lying to the business.
