Title: R&D Engineer needed in SMT and NMT

The World Intellectual Property Organization in Geneva (WIPO - Geneva
Switzerland) is looking for a highly skilled person in the area of
statistical machine translation, with knowledge of neural machine
translation techniques.

Context:

WIPO Translate has been working in the area of automatically translating
Patent documents using open source Moses for the last  seven years.

In September 2016, thanks to our collaborator Marcin Junczys-Dowmunt and
his open-source AmuNMT, we put Neural MT in production
(http://www.wipo.int/patentscope/en/wipo-translate/).

We plan to extend Neural MT to other languages very soon, and extend it
also to other services of WIPO and other international organizations.

Position:

This is a short term position (one year, with the possibility of a
maximum one year extension), with an attractive salary. Located in
Geneva.

The candidate must have a strong background in MT (hopefully in Neural
Machine Translation - Nematus / AmuNMt) with the ability to maintain and
extend existing software and the desire to take the latest research
technologies into production.

Note the very short deadline: 16/2/2017
