University or Organization: Infogain 
Department: High Tech
Job Location: California, USA 
Web Address: http://www.infogain.com
Job Title: Language Solutions Consultant
Job Rank: Consultant

Specialty Areas: Computational Linguistics 


Description:

This is an entry level position for a language solutions consultant in our
High Tech department. One post has been filled and we are looking for an
additional candidate to join the team.

Infogain's Consulting is involved in business consulting, process design work
and the application of technologies to business. We need people who are able
to challenge conventional thought, offer unique perspectives and conceive more
innovative solutions for our clients.

Consultants are professionals who have an interest in how business processes
work and interact. In addition, consultants need to apply their skills in
project and program management while exhibiting leadership in process
re-engineering and implementation of process, technology, and organizational
change. Finally, consultants also need to have a working knowledge of the
industry and/or the functional areas they serve. 

The High Tech group offers a range of delivery services including enterprise
solutions, system integration, technical architectures, business intelligence,
infrastructure consulting, and technology research/development.

Our High Tech consultants can expect to:
- Work with cutting edge technology 
- Deliver high-quality solutions across multiple industries 
- Work on a variety of projects ranging in both size and scope 
- Gain rapid career progression 

This entry level position involves working with Oracle Knowledge software
package including Enterprise search, Content Management system, Analytics and
other tools. The Language Solutions Consultant will learn to configure and
operate the suite of Oracle knowledge tools and apply that knowledge in client
implementation. The Language Consultant will lead the design and the
implementation of the tools, interact directly with customers about the
technologies, develop and deliver presentations, training materials, and
documentation related to the project/implementation, and work with team
members across the world. 

This is a hybrid role that walks a fine line between engineering the natural
language search engine, and software consultation. So the ideal candidate
should be comfortable wearing both the engineer and the consultant’s hat. 

Basic Qualification:
- Understanding of taxonomies and ontologies
- Working knowledge of regular expressions
- Willingness to travel 
- Bachelors Degree is required 
- Good verbal and presentation skills
- Ability to work as part of the team
- Ability to work in a fast-paced environment
- Very strong Analytical skills

Preferred skills:
- Linguistics background (Computational Linguistics a plus)
- Knowledge of foreign languages
- Regular expressions or programming skills
- Business Analysis and BI

Soft Skills:
- Eagerness to contribute in a team-oriented environment 
- Ability to work creatively and analytically in a problem-solving environment
- Desire to work in an information systems environment 
- Good communication (written and oral) and interpersonal skills
