The applicant is expected to engage in the project and actively participate in courses, workshops, and events of the CRC. We are looking for a highly qualified person who (a) has a strong interest in contributing to current research data infrastructures, and (b) wants to join a research team for the development of NLP methods and their data-driven application. We offer a stimulating and international environment in the field of computational linguistics/text technology, including financial funds for conference participation and individual career development. Requirements: Completed academic degree (Master's or equivalent) in computer science, computational linguistics or a field related to database management and NLP. Demonstrable experience in setting up databases and utilizing NLP methods (e.g. automatic annotation, corpus linguistic methods). Extensive programming knowledge in Java, Python or similar. Knowledge of the use of Docker is an advantage. An interest in linguistic issues is desirable but not essential.
