You'll work across RDF and property graph paradigms and Snowflake semantic layer.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design and evolve healthcare ontologies and semantic models to standardize meaning across domains (clinical, patient, provider, claims, access, quality, outcomes).

• Design data products that are AI-ready and leverage ontologies and semantic models

Build metrics-first semantic layers:

• Define canonical metric definitions, dimensions, hierarchies, and calculation rules.

• Ensure metrics are explainable, auditable, and consistently implemented across products and teams.

• Model knowledge in both RDF (RDFS/OWL) for formal semantics and interoperability.

• Property graphs for traversal-heavy use cases and relationship analytics.

Develop and maintain semantic artifacts:
