Job description
Our Client, a Banking company, is looking for an AI-Ready Knowledge Architect for their Remote location.
Responsibilities:
Lead the development and maintenance of the enterprise data domain model, taxonomy, and ontologies to ensure shared understanding, semantic consistency, and discoverability of data and knowledge assets.
Design and evolve information and semantic models that make enterprise data AI-ready, supporting use cases ranging from traditional analytics and BI to applied machine learning and LLM-based experiences (e.g., search, retrieval-augmented generation, and copilots).
Operationalize data models, taxonomies, and semantic structures through the Enterprise Data Catalog (Alation).
Define and enforce standards for data modeling, taxonomy, nomenclature, and semantic structures to ensure consistency and interoperability across business domains and downstream consumption patterns.
Confirm and document prioritized metadata elements for key business processes, analytical use cases, and AI-enabled workflows, ensuring alignment with governance standards and risk expectations.
Identify simplification opportunities—reduce redundancy, converge overlapping datasets, and promote canonical sources to improve trust, efficiency, and reusability across analytics and AI platforms.
Partner with analytics, data science, and AI engineering teams to ensure information architecture, metadata, and semantic context are sufficient to support explainable, governed, and trustworthy AI outcomes.
Requirements:
7-10 years of experience working with data, metadata, and reference data frameworks, including experience in metadata management and/or data quality monitoring
Experience leading the development of enterprise business glossaries, domain models, and ontologies to enable semantic consistency, shared understanding, and AI ready data usage.
Understanding of how semantic models, metadata, and knowledge representation enable applied AI and LLM use cases, such as search, question answering, and decision support.
Strong business acumen in relating data to business process drivers and performance management, with a value delivery mindset.
Collaborative, team focused delivery experience that drives outcomes across enterprise data, analytics, and technology organizations.
Excellent knowledge of data and metadata management principles, business analysis, and process engineering.
