Job Details

Title: NeuroSymbolic Systems Senior AI Software Engineer

Mission: Build and productionize hybrid AI systems that combine knowledge graphs, ontologies, and neurosymbolic reasoning with ML components to deliver explainable search, inference, and decision support.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement knowledge graphs and ingestion pipelines using Neo4j; model entities, relationships, and provenance for production use.
  • Author and maintain ontologies/semantic schemas (OWL/RDFS/SHACL or mapped propertygraph schemas) and translate competency questions into graph queries.
  • Develop neurosymbolic pipelines that combine embeddings/LLMs with symbolic rules, logic engines, or reasoners to enable hybrid retrieval and inference.
  • Optimize Cypher queries, APOC procedures, and graph performance for scale and low latency.
  • Collaborate with ML engineers and product teams to integrate graph signals into models and expose APIs/services.
  • Establish testing, CI/CD, and governance for schema evolution, data quality, and explainability.

Required qualifications

  • 5+ years software engineering experience with 3+ years building knowledge graphs or semantic systems.
  • Handson Neo4j experience (data modeling, Cypher, APOC, import pipelines).
  • Strong background in ontology engineering (OWL/RDFS, Protg, SHACL) or equivalent semantic modeling.
  • Experience integrating ML with symbolic systems (embeddings, LLMs, rule engines) or neurosymbolic research/practice.
  • Proficiency in Python or Java, REST API design, and production deployment practices.
  • Excellent communication and ability to translate domain requirements into ontologies and graph schemas.

Nicetohave

  • Experience with graph ML (Neo4j GDS), SPARQL, or enterprise KG tooling.
  • Prior work on explainability, knowledgebased QA, or semantic search.
  • Contributions to opensource neurosymbolic projects or KG tutorials/publications
