  • Work together with the product owner to break down features into actionable user stories and technical tasks.
  • Utilize existing taxonomies and ontologies applicable to our work. Contribute to the documentation and publishing of taxonomies/ontologies, supporting the core concepts of our domain.
  • Adhere to and support the established governance process for structured data, ensuring compliance across implementations.

What You’ll Need

  • A relevant STEM BA/BS Degree and 3-5 years of relevant coding experience, or five years of relevant professional experience in semantic web development using multiple languages (Python, Java).

  • Hands-on experience with containerization technologies (Docker) and cloud deployment strategies using services like Amazon ECS.
  • Familiar with agile development, incorporating Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD), utilizing technologies such as GIT and Jenkins.
  • Strong understanding and hands-on experience with relational databases (SQL) and familiarity with NoSQL databases (e.g., PostgreSQL). 
  • Proven ability to communicate complex technical concepts effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, and to lead collaborative efforts across diverse teams. 
  • Demonstrated ability to analyze complex data challenges, identify root causes, and architect strategic, scalable solutions within a semantic context. 
  • Experience in an Agile/Scrum environment, iteratively developing and deploying data solutions. 
  • Bonus: Understanding healthcare ontologies and standards like SNOMED-CT, LOINC, RxNorm, and ICD-10.
