REMOTE ROLE, preferred candidates in Eastern or Central time, to coordinate with European partners.

Description:

  • What is the primary focus of this role: Ontology design, Semantic graph modeling, AI system integration (e.g., RAG pipelines, agent orchestration), it will all of the above, but building Ontologies.
  • Would like 5+ years' overall experience, some Enterprise AI + hoping to see 2+ years' hands-on with Knowledge Engineering / Ontology
  • Should know standards such as RDF and W3C for Semantic Graphs
  • Leverage ontologies to enhance data pipelines and enable advanced knowledge engineering solutions.
  • Collaborate with AI teams to ensure ontology structures efficiently support Agentic AI applications, including RAG pipelines and Agent Orchestration.
  • Graph Database Expertise
  • Work with both Semantic Graph and Property Graph technologies, understanding their unique architectures and use cases.
  • Utilize Semantic Graph tools for rule-based inference and semantic reasoning.
  • Employ Property Graph tools like Neo4j, Amazon Neptune, and TigerGraph for network analytics and data exploration.
  • Integrate graph solutions with AI and machine learning systems, ensuring seamless knowledge retrieval and reasoning.
  • Network Science Application
  • Apply network science techniques to analyze and interpret complex relationships within graph data.
  • Develop algorithms and models to extract insights from graph structures and relationships.
  • Use network insights to enhance AI systems' ability to reason across interconnected data sets.
Requirements
  • Minimum Education Master's degree ideally in engineering, science or another technical or business related field
  • Strong expertise in ontologies, including their design, implementation, and application in real-world scenarios.
  • Proficiency in graph database technologies, with hands-on experience in both Semantic Graph and Property Graph systems.
  • Solid understanding of network science concepts and their practical applications in graph engineering.
  • Familiarity with standards such as RDF and W3C for Semantic Graphs, as well as bespoke standards for Property Graphs.
  • Ability to mentor and train junior team members, fostering a culture of learning and growth.
  • Experience integrating AI considerations (like LLM-based retrieval, RAG pipelines, and Agent Orchestration) into graph ecosystem design.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with data pipelines and integrating graph databases into larger data ecosystems.
  • Knowledge of rule-based inference systems and network analytics tools.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently on complex technical challenges.
  • Prior exposure to enterprise AI initiatives, demonstrating an understanding of how knowledge graphs support agent-based architectures.
