We are seeking individuals to contribute to the development of technologies for
intelligent document analysis as well as to the design and implemention of a prototype
for an information service which helps bridge people through shared interests. Much of
the software will be written in Java with some external extensions to C and C++ systems.
The position requires object-oriented development experience (non-classroom experience
perferred), good design practices and principles, and the ability to learn quickly and
interact well within a project group. The candidates will be expected to participate in
ongoing design discussions and take responsibility for the completion of well-defined
modules within the proposed system. A strong interest in one of the following areas is
required: natural language processing, knowledge representation, information retrieval,
user-interface design and the World Wide Web. A candidate should be able to demonstrate
strong creativity as well as a good intuition for software design. Position is open to
graduate students as well as exceptional undergraduates.
