Required Experience & Qualifications * Significant experience in enterprise or solution architecture, information architecture, or technology strategy, with significant exposure to data-centric or ontology-driven approaches. * Experience in Defence, National Security, or other regulated sectors with understanding of security-cleared environments, sovereign technology constraints, and cross-domain information sharing challenges. * Deep knowledge of ontology and semantic technology standards including OWL, RDF/RDFS, SKOS, and domain-specific frameworks, with an understanding of how these translate into practical architecture decisions. * Familiarity with the technology landscape for knowledge graphs, triple stores, and graph databases (e.g. Neo4j, Apache Jena, Amazon Neptune, Stardog) and how to evaluate them. * Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to present complex architectural concepts as clear strategic narratives for non-technical decision-makers.
