You will design the semantic foundations that make AI systems accurate, explainable, governable, and performant-partnering with engineering, product, security/compliance, and domain teams across R&D, Manufacturing, and Commercial Roles & Responsibilities Semantic architecture & AI-first context modeling Define enterprise-grade semantic representations for healthcare/life-sciences concepts and specify how relationships and interactions are represented for AI consumption. Create and maintain semantic schemas / ontologies / knowledge-graph models that describe entities, attributes, constraints, and linkages-optimized for both analytics and AI reasoning. Establish context engineering standards: how data is shaped into prompts, tools, memory, retrieval indices, and structured outputs so models behave consistently across use cases. Feature engineering & model performance (core emphasis) Lead feature engineering strategy tied directly to model performance, including feature definition, transformations, leakage prevention, stability monitoring, and explainability. Perform exploratory data analysis on complex, high-dimensional datasets to identify predictive signals and context variables that improve model robustness and generalization. Context-aware ML, GenAI, and reinforcement learning-informed approaches Build and evaluate context-aware ML/GenAI solutions, integrating semantic layers with retrieval, tools, and structured outputs. Apply reinforcement learning concepts (reward modeling, policy optimization intuition, offline evaluation, exploration/exploitation framing) to improve decisioning, ranking, orchestration, and system behavior-without overfitting to short-term metrics. Prototype and benchmark algorithms and approaches (classical ML, deep learning, LLM-based reasoning) and advise on scalability and production readiness. Retrieval, knowledge, and governance foundations Architect and implement retrieval and memory patterns (RAG, vector stores, knowledge graphs, session memory). Define data quality and semantic quality gates (entity completeness, relationship validity, taxonomy drift, grounding coverage) that impact downstream model reliability. Cross-functional leadership Translate domain needs into semantic + AI roadmaps, aligning stakeholders on definitions, metrics, and tradeoffs.
