Build and operate production Python and FastAPI services for extracting entities and relationships from biomedical documents, resolving entities, maintaining large-scale knowledge graphs, and combining graph and vector retrieval. Responsibilities include ontology design, deduplication, provenance, hybrid GraphRAG ranking, monitoring, and production support. The role requires expertise in knowledge-graph construction, applied NLP, entity resolution, graph databases, scalable retrieval, and cloud-native engineering.

Role SummaryDesign, build and operate the Python/FastAPI services that extract entities and relationships from unstructured documents, resolve them to canonical identifiers, maintain the knowledge graph, and serve graph-augmented retrieval alongside vector search for multi-hop and relational questions.
Responsibilities- Build entity and relation extraction services over unstructured documents — molecules, brands, indications, therapeutic areas, endpoints, claims.
- Build entity resolution: alias handling, blocking and candidate generation, fuzzy and embedding matching, calibrated thresholds, human review routing.
- Design and maintain the graph schema and ontology; incremental ingest, node and edge deduplication and merging, provenance on every edge.
- Fuse graph and vector results into a single ranked, cited context for the retrieval service.
- Instrument, monitor and support the services in production.
- 5–9 years software engineering, with demonstrable knowledge-graph construction and applied NLP delivered to production.
- Has built a knowledge graph from unstructured text — not queried an existing one, and not a CRUD application on a graph database.
- Graph at production scale. Millions of nodes and edges; incremental updates with stable node identity; supernode and traversal-explosion handling with bounded depth and timeouts.
- Entity resolution at corpus scale. Blocking and candidate generation that avoid O(n²) comparison, with measured precision on a labelled sample.
- Graph database in production. Neo4j, Amazon Neptune or equivalent; Cypher / openCypher fluency.
- Ontology and taxonomy modelling. Schema evolution without breaking downstream consumers; judgement on node vs. edge vs. property.
- Extraction. NER and relation extraction — LLM-based, model-based (spaCy, scispaCy, transformers) or hybrid, with the judgement to choose.
- Graph vs. vector judgement. Knows where graph retrieval wins — multi-hop, relational, comparative and aggregate questions — and that hybrid is the production norm.
- Python and FastAPI in production. Python 3.11+, async, Pydantic, Docker, pytest, Git and CI; AWS as a consumer (S3, ECS/EKS, Bedrock, Neptune or self-hosted Neo4j).
- Biomedical ontologies and registries: UMLS, MeSH, SNOMED, RxNorm, ICD-10, DrugBank, ChEMBL.
- Life sciences or pharma domain experience; RDF/SPARQL alongside property graphs.
- GraphRAG approaches: community detection for corpus-level summarisation, local vs. global search.
