ODASE™ ontology offers a new way to build and run flexible, reliable and high-quality mission-critical enterprise software.
Enterprise software is still largely being built empirically, essentially by writing code manually. But, as applications grow in complexity, software projects have become costlier, slower, and riddled with more bugs, increasing the gap between Business and IT.
Nowadays, nobody builds bridges, cars, airplanes… empirically: thanks to science, they are modelled and computed before they are built, and robots are used to automate a large part of the construction.
This is exactly what we do for enterprise software: We model the problem (describing in logic the business concepts, rules and processes), turn that model into a mainstream programming language automatically (e.g. in Java or C#), and have software engineers add the remaining code resulting in a running, scalable application which can target different architectures (e.g. SOA) and platforms (e.g. Linux, Windows, the “cloud”, etc).
The Function
Working with the CTO, you will develop ontology-centric software and contribute to the ongoing ODASE R&D.
As lead ontologist, you will formalize business specifications by creating ontologies (combining OWL, RDF and SWRL) and you will turn these ontologies into high performance implementations (in Java or .NET).
Your profile
You have a solid background in computer sciences and have a Master or PhD degree. You have already gained experience in software development using the Java and/or the .NET stacks.
You know that mastering the dual software complexity – complexity of the problems and complexity of the technology – will only be possible by means of a very rigorous and disciplined intellectual penetration of the problem domain, relying on powerful general tools for knowledge representation and manipulation. But you also know that these tools must integrate perfectly with the current procedural environment to deliver the benefits expected by the market.
Ideally, French is your mother language or you have a perfect command of French. You also have an excellent command of English.
We are looking for great people to join us. Our culture is based on science and engineering excellence, collegiality in all things, mutual respect. We care deeply about work-life balance and productivity in the short and long run. We are currently based in Brussels and offer remote work in the right circumstances.
