  • Design and develop ontologies and knowledge graphs for complex domains.
  • Implement semantic web standards such as RDF, OWL, and SPARQL.
  • Integrate heterogeneous data sources using linked data principles.
  • Develop and maintain reasoning engines and semantic search capabilities.
  • Collaborate with data scientists and AI engineers to enrich models with semantic layers.
  • Optimize performance of semantic queries and reasoning processes.
  • Document semantic models and ensure compliance with interoperability standards.

Required Skills
  • Strong knowledge of Semantic Web technologies: RDF, OWL, SPARQL.
  • Experience with ontology design tools (e.g., Prot g ).
  • Familiarity with knowledge graph platforms (Neo4j, GraphDB, Apache Jena).
