Key ResponsibilitiesEvaluate, maintain, and evolve XML-based semantic markup standards, with a focus on non-book and modular contentOwn and define the governance and update model for markup standards, including: how changes are proposed, reviewed, approved, versioned, and communicated; how the model is sustained and evolved over timeServe as a subject-matter expert for XML schema design and semantic structuresDefine and support new use-case extensions (e.g., structured case-study boxes or new modular components), including: clarifying semantic intent; providing example XML patterns; assessing schema and workflow impactsEnsure markup standards support: modular content architectures; reuse and component-based publishing; multi-channel and multi-product deliveryTranslate abstract or emerging business needs into clear, enforceable technical standardsCollaborate with editorial, product, engineering, and external partners to resolve semantic, structural, and governance issuesProduce clear, durable documentation, including: markup standards and schemas; governance and decision guidelines; example XML illustrating “what good looks like”Required Qualifications3–5+ years of hands-on experience with XML, including: defining, managing, or evolving XML schemas; owning or supporting semantic markup structuresStrong working knowledge of XML BITS 2.0Proven experience supporting non-book content and/or modular contentDemonstrated experience evaluating and evolving semantic markup models in complex environmentsStrong understanding of modular content architectures, reuse strategies, and component-based publishingAbility to translate conceptual business requirements into concrete, technically enforceable standardsExcellent documentation, communication, and stakeholder-facilitation skillsCritical Clarification on XML vs. XSLT This role requires a strong, foundational understanding of XML itself, including semantic modeling, element/attribute design, schema constraints, and governance. Candidates who over-emphasize XSLT or transformation work, without demonstrated ownership of XML structures and semantic markup models, are not a good fit. XSLT is considered a supporting skill, not a core competency; success depends on defining what the XML should be, not just how it is transformedPlease share your resumes to email: Layasri@lakshya-tech.com
