Knowledge Engineering Consultant / Team Lead

YOU ARE a strong individual contributor knowledge engineer growing into a team lead. You are well versed in the full knowledge graph development lifecycle. You formulate real‑world problems into practical, efficient, scalable AI and Knowledge Graph solutions, working hands‑on across the lifecycle from ingestion through modeling, curation, and deployment. You apply current methodologies, techniques, and algorithms with the right architecture, and begin to guide junior engineers on the project. You stay current with knowledge engineering, generative AI, LLM, and multi‑modal models; look for opportunities to apply them to the problem at hand. You design, evaluate, and maintain ontologies as needed. You help articulate the value of generative AI and knowledge graph approaches for a given business problem. You share what you learn with the team. You collaborate with users, use case reps, engineers, architects, and UI designers to deliver your piece of an end‑to‑end solution.

THE WORK involves building Knowledge Graph components that contribute to transforming a client's data architecture. You will design, develop, and implement AI and semantic solutions; ensuring your work integrates cleanly with the broader system. You will work alongside the project team and delivery leads, building solid working relationships with client counterparts on your workstream. You will help assemble the supporting evidence for the recommended semantic layer solution and support Accenture sales efforts when called on. Keep developing skills in cutting‑edge Data & AI solutions, especially agentic technologies, and share with the team.
