The National Research Council of Canada is seeking postdoc (or equivalent)
researchers to work at the Language Technology Research Centre (LTRC). We
are especially interested in candidates with a solid background in machine
learning for natural language processing, particularly statistical machine
translation, with strong programming skills. Knowledge of French is also
an asset.

We are a brand new research centre focussing primarily on multilingual
applications. Our ambition is to hire outstanding researchers and become a
leading international centre in this area.  Successful applicants will
join a growing team in a friendly research environment, and will be
expected to make fundamental contributions to a variety of exciting and
highly-visible projects. Positions are for 1-2 years, with the possibility
of a permanent placement afterwards.

LTRC is located near Ottawa, Canada's capital and a centre for high-tech,
academic, and cultural activities.  Ottawa is a safe, clean, pleasant city
with convenient access to a wide variety of outdoor pursuits.

To apply, please send a CV and a description of your research interests to
George Foster (george.foster at nrc.gc.ca).
