The Senior Ontologist, Biologics Discovery serves as a cross-functional catalyst within the Biologics Discovery organization to establish a robust semantic foundation for complex datasets. This role involves designing, building, and governing ontology modules, controlled vocabularies, and mappings to ensure data from antibody engineering, protein design, and assay metadata are interoperable and AI-ready. The successful candidate will translate intricate scientific concepts into machine-readable formats using OWL, RDF(S), SKOS, SHACL, and SPARQL while managing versioned assets for knowledge graphs and automated pipelines. Key technical requirements include proficiency with tools like Protégé and various triple stores to support GraphRAG and agentic AI workflows. By aligning biologics semantics with enterprise standards, the role solves the problem of fragmented terminology across the molecule lifecycle, ensuring that discovery data remains navigable and actionable for both researchers and advanced computational models.
