We are seeking a Data Scientist with deep expertise in Knowledge Graphs and Ontologies and the ability to work across domains. You will design and deploy production‑grade graph solutions that model relationships not only between UAVs, missions, and sensors, but across company processes end‑to‑end: from operations and production to HR and delivery. Your work will provide a transversal view of how data and processes interconnect, powering insights and decision‑making across the organization.

• Ontology Design & Management:
  Design and maintain scalable ontologies to unify mission data, sensor outputs, flight logs, and operational parameters.

• Graph Engineering (Neo4j):
  Implement, optimize, and operate Neo4j schemas; write high‑performance Cypher queries and ensure production scalability.

• Graph Data Science:
  Apply graph algorithms (e.g., centrality, pathfinding, community detection) and graph ML to derive actionable insights.

• Production Deployment:
  Move solutions from research to production (TRL >
  6); integrate graph models into APIs and pipelines with reliability and latency constraints.

• Data Integration:
  Build ingestion pipelines for structured and unstructured data into the Knowledge Graph.

• Cross‑Functional
  
  Collaboration:
  
  Translate operational and domain requirements into robust data and graph models.

• Graph Databases:
  Advanced Neo4j expertise, including architecture, drivers, administration, and Cypher.

• Ontology & Semantics:
  Strong experience with data modeling, ontologies, and semantic technologies (RDF, OWL, SPARQL).

• Programming:
  High proficiency in Python (pandas, networkx, py2neo, neo4j‑driver).

• Graph ML:
  Experience with Neo4j GDS or frameworks such as PyTorch Geometric or DGL.

• Production Engineering:
  Hands‑on experience with Docker, REST APIs (FastAPI/Flask), and CI/CD pipelines.

• 3+ years of experience in Data Science or Data Engineering.

• Experience with NLP for entity and relationship extraction is a plus.

• Strongly skilled in standard ML workflows (Scikit‑Learn, XGBoost)

• Experience with geospatial data (GIS, Geo Pandas) is valued.

MSc in Computer Science, Data Science, or a related engineering field (PhD welcome, but practical delivery is prioritized).

• Production Builder:
  You focus on deploying reliable systems, not just experiments.

• Versatile Specialist:
  Deep in graph technologies, comfortable across the full data stack when needed.

• Structured Thinker:
  You value strong data models, data quality, and long‑term maintainability.

• An excellent work environment and an opportunity to make a difference;

• Salary Compatible with the level of proven experience.
