Reason over a Climate Policy Knowledge Graph for an EU Think Tank
Overview
What this challenge is about.
Reason over a Climate Policy Knowledge Graph for an EU Think Tank. Advanced challenge in code. Writing production code that solves real engineering problems,...
The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
Build a knowledge-graph reasoner over EU climate-policy data with explicit derivation traces.
This is not a coding exercise. It is the work a software engineer does between a Jira ticket and a merged PR. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates solve LeetCode problems and none who have shipped production code under real constraints.
When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."
Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate
- Design a knowledge-graph schema for a real policy domain
- Implement compositional rule-based reasoning with derivation traces
- Translate user questions into structured queries
- Communicate the design choices behind a knowledge representation
