- Acquisition and management of data sources for building improved pre- and post-processing tools (e.g. morphological and syntactic analysis, re-ordering, re-scoring, quality estimation);
- Consulting the development team on integrating these additional data sources into a working MT solution on a software level;
- Consulting on MT quality improvements; assessing the impact of changes to the MT engines on MT quality and other performance criteria;
- Participation in functional working groups and progress meetings;

- A minimum of 7 years of professional experience in the area of natural language processing (NLP) or Machine Learning (ML);
- In-depth knowledge of setting up and evaluating MT software, including testing methodologies and tools, such as automatic quality metrics (BLEU scores and similar) and human evaluation of MT quality;
- Good knowledge of natural language processing systems lifecycle and agile software development methodologies;
- Strong capacity in preparing and writing studies, documenting project results, and giving high level presentations;
- Knowledge of and ability to apply MT-specific quality standards;
