Reveal Networks taps the power of the Omnity Trust Engine, an ultra-high-speed reader, knowledge consensus checker, and summary tool enabling enterprise knowledge workers to cope with the explosion of unstructured knowledge all around them. Fusing Natural Language Processing (NLP), machine learning, and graph mathematics, shared meaning is discovered between swarms of documents by detecting similar patterns of shared rare words - a mathematical approach that transcends the extreme limitations of conventional, link-based document discovery. Our technology represents an Artificial Intelligence breakthrough in NLP and Swarm Intelligence. The Omnity trust Engine is driven by a continuously growing database of nearly a quadrillion document-pairs which can be rapidly and confidentially coupled to private content.Responsibilities include: + Executive decisions regarding product development and technology strategy + Define product and technology vision, benchmark competitive landscape. Provide face for company’s technical vision + Define objectives for research and development. Manage extramural grants and IP estate+ Align vision and technology strategy through implementation of R&D program and platform execution+ Design and implement workflow concurrently across multiple development teams, track progress.+ Program TImelines & Sequence of technology development and deployment+ Lead and plan tech stack forMVP, API Development, digital product architecture + Monitor technology trends for potential disruption and other competition, integrate with tech stack strategy + Build strategic partnerships with vendors and R&D collaborations, negotiate vendor contracts
