(Senior) Data Scientist - NLP (m/f/d) (Remote)

We are Joblift: a pioneer in tech-based recruiting. Since 2015 we have been working steadily to change the HR market with innovative technologies. Started as a meta search engine, today we are a recruiting intelligence platform. Through performance-based multichannel recruiting, we find exactly the right candidates for millions of job advertisements. We do everything we can to create the perfect match and to make the recruiting process easier, faster and more transparent. With our new job recommendation system, we want to become the “digital career advisor for everyone” and, as a virtual JobCoach, support users in their career planning over the long term.

Since Natural Language Processing is at the core of almost everything we do at Joblift, our Data Science team is looking for a highly motivated (Senior) Machine Learning Engineer to push the development of ML and NLP technologies even further. This role will be centered around a variety of use-cases such as extracting structured knowledge out of millions of job postings, understanding user queries and profile data, and eventually using all of this to deliver the best candidate-job matching experience. Given the high-volume and low-latency requirements of our products, the position will be especially focused on developing and deploying NLP-based models that are able to satisfy those requirements while maintaining high standards of quality.
