Summary
Ian Gross is a Human Language Technology Senior Scientist with 12 years of experience applying NLP, machine learning, and semantic web techniques to government and research problems. At MITRE he builds production-focused language and knowledge-graph solutions while drawing on prior academic work developing ontologies and information extraction tools under Deborah McGuinness and collaborators. He combines hands-on software engineering (Java, Python, SPARQL, Jena) with data-science rigor from his RPI MS, producing deliverables that bridge research and operational needs. Ian’s background spans industry internships in geocoding and biometrics to co-op work integrating IBM Watson services, reflecting a pragmatic curiosity for novel AI approaches. He’s especially strong at turning linked-data and NLP research into usable systems for regulated, mission-driven environments.
