## Summary
An ontologist is a data architect who designs models showing important things and their relationships in an organization. Training covers graph languages (RDF, OWL, SHACL), SPARQL, Neo4J, and practical data skills. The role helps standardize communication across teams but may be project-based and complemented by LLM tools.
