How AI Let a Non-Technical Delivery Lead Work in the Data Layer

Summary

A delivery lead used AI tools (Cursor, Claude) with read‑only DB access, code context, and SharePoint files to let non‑technical staff troubleshoot data issues in real time, cutting developer involvement and speeding up reconciliation.

  • Connect AI to a read‑only production DB and the code repository so it has both data and logic context.
  • Add external reference data (e.g., SharePoint files) to let the AI cross‑check source files against system data.
  • Define AI "skills" that describe schema and business semantics to produce trustworthy answers on first pass.
  • Non‑technical leads can resolve data reconciliation questions live, reducing developer round‑trip time dramatically.

Delivery leads and other non‑technical staff can troubleshoot data issues faster without pulling in developers, freeing capacity and improving client interactions.
