Isonokami no Otomaro (石上 乙麻呂?, ? – October 9, 750) was a Japanese noble and scholar of the Nara period. He was the son of sadaijin Isonokami no Maro. He reached the court rank of ju san-mi (従三位?) and the position of chūnagon.
In 724, Otomaro was promoted from shō roku-i no ge (正六位下?) to ju go-i no ge (従五位下?). In 732 he was promoted again to ju go-i no ge (従五位上?) and governor of Tanba province. Under the successive administrations of the four sons of Fujiwara no Fuhito and Tachibana no Moroe, Otomaro rose quickly, to shō go-i no ge (正五位下?) in 736, shō go-i no jō (正五位上?) in 737, and in 738 to ju shi-i no ge (従四位下?) and sadaiben in the Daijō-kan.
