AI Knowledge Enginner

AI Knowledge Engineer

  • Hybrid- Remote
  • 6 months +
  • Inside IR35
  • SC Clearance (or eligible)

Our customer, a central government organization, are building an enterprise-grade AI platform to enable secure, scalable and production-ready use of Generative AI and ML across the programme.

The successful candidate will be responsible for:

  • Building and populating knowledge graphs programmatically from structured and unstructured sources (not UI-based curation)
  • Graph databases/query (eg Neo4j/Cypher or RDF/SPARQL)
  • Python data engineering for ingestion/ETL at volume
  • Vector embeddings and chunking strategy

Nice to have:

  • LangGraph or equivalent orchestration experience
  • AWS-native AI stack (Bedrock, OpenSearch); other cloud stacks considered if transferable
  • Regulated/government environment experience
  • The Knowledge Engineer builds and operates the pipelines that populate and maintain the CDS knowledge graph at volume, turning the Knowledge Modeller's schema and platform-team retrieval design into a working, governed data asset.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Build ingestion pipelines to populate the knowledge graph programmatically from structured and unstructured sources
  • Implement and maintain graph population workflows (entity/relationship extraction, loading, validation against the defined schema)
  • Own chunking and embedding strategy for content feeding retrieval
  • Monitor and maintain data quality, freshness and lineage within the knowledge graph
  • Support reconciliation processes to catch ingestion gaps (eg missed webhook events) without adding load on source systems
  • Work with AI Engineers to ensure the graph and retrieval layer serve RAG/agent consumption correctly
  • Contribute to evaluation of graph/retrieval quality from a data-completeness perspective (distinct from AI Engineer's model-output evaluation)
