The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to use
non-discriminatory standards in hiring policy. In particular we urge
that employers do not discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity,
nationality, age, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. However, we
have no means of enforcing these standards.

Description:
OWI Technologies.

Our software company builds a semantic engine based on very innovative approaches. 

Our sales will only start in 2010, thus we voluntarily do not communicate on our
offer at present time.

We are looking for an intern (typically during the course of a Master degree in
NLP) who would work on the addition of new languages to our semantic engine.

The tasks to reach this goal include:
- identify the relevant linguistic resources.
- design and implement the new linguistic behaviours, within the OWI model

The skills we are looking for are:
- bilingual in French and English, trilingual is a plus.
- a general linguistic culture, in order to understand quickly the OWI model
- team player (being both autonomous and able to cooperate with others)

This offer concerns a 3-6 months internship, during which the candidate will
mainly work, inside a 5 persons R&D team, with the Engineer-researcher who set
up the French language.

We offer a financial compensation.

Our office is located on the campus of Ecole Centrale Paris, in Châtenay Malabry
(92), 10 kilometers South of Paris, France.

OWI Technologies.

Nous sommes éditeur d'un logiciel de moteur sémantique reposant sur une
technologie très innovante. 

La commercialisation de notre offre commence en 2010, raison pour laquelle nous
communiquons aussi peu que possible, pour l'instant.

Nous recherchons, pour la mise en oeuvre de langues supplémentaires, un
stagiaire, idéalement dans le cadre d'un Master en TAL.

Les tâches à accomplir comprennent :
- l'identification de ressources linguistiques utiles
- la description et la saisie des comportements linguistiques, au sein du modèle OWI

Les compétences requises sont :
- être au minimum bilingue (anglais et autre)
- disposer d'une culture linguistique permettant de comprendre rapidement le
modèle OWI
- savoir travailler en équipe (autonomie et collaboration)

La durée du stage pourra être comprise entre 3 et 6 mois, et il s'agira de
travailler, au sein d'une équipe de R&D de 5 personnes, principalement avec un
docteur en informatique ayant mis en place le français.

Le stage est rémunéré.

Nos bureaux sont situés au sein de l'Ecole Centrale Paris, à Châtenay Malabry (92).

Application Deadline: Open until filled.
