I have no solution to propose, but it looks like you need a graph database,
vs a more traditional relational database. Independent tools used in
different orders and situations. There are several versions of graph
databases, but as I have no need I've not researched them.

Graph databases have nodes and edges. The edges allow you to define
relationships between nodes, in a much more organic way. Your graph
database can then be rendered in a 3d model, which is always cool to see.
You should still be able to do a linear keyword search when you wish a
specific node/skill.
