Remote Natural Language Processing Engineer
Description
Remote Natural Language Processing Engineer
Introduction: Join a Mission That Matters
Imagine building technology that understands human language and empowers communities, businesses, and people from all walks of life. As a Remote Natural Language Processing (NLP) Engineer, you’ll contribute meaningfully to shaping the future of language-aware technology systems that are as inclusive and intelligent as the humans they serve. This role isn’t just about code, connection, innovation, and equity. This is your opportunity if you believe in using your technical skills for meaningful impact.
We are looking for an NLP Engineer who can bring compassion to algorithms and empathy to every solution. You’ll be part of a diverse team of researchers, engineers, and linguists who thrive on mutual respect and cross-functional collaboration. With an annual salary of $117,235, this position offers competitive compensation and the chance to grow in a remote-first, people-focused culture.
Key Responsibilities: Make Every Sentence Matter
Develop Intelligent, Fair NLP Systems
- Build, refine, and enhance intelligent systems focused on language interpretation, content categorization, and emotional tone detection.
- Apply cutting-edge techniques in named entity recognition (NER), topic modeling, semantic search, and machine translation.
Collaborate Across Cultures and Teams
- Work closely with product teams, data scientists, and human-centric designers to embed ethical language processing into our core applications.
- Participate in inclusive sprint planning, where every voice, regardless of background, is heard and valued.
Refine and Improve Language Models
- Implement advanced NLP pipelines that reflect linguistic nuance and cultural sensitivity.
- Continuously evaluate algorithm fairness and reduce linguistic bias in datasets and model outputs.
Champion Responsible AI
- Engage in peer reviews and ethical reviews of new model releases.
- Build reusable components and scalable APIs for integration across different departments, including customer support, business automation, and accessibility services.
Work Environment: Where Remote Feels Like Home
You’ll join a distributed yet tightly knit team that thrives on empathy, curiosity, and clear communication. You'll collaborate with team members across multiple time zones from the comfort of your home office or a cozy coworking space. We provide regular virtual meetups, mentorship circles, and Slack-based support hubs to ensure that distance never leads to isolation.
Every team member receives a dedicated onboarding partner, ensuring a smooth transition and long-term connection. We celebrate personal milestones, host culture-sharing days, and always respect your time.
Tools & Technologies: Your Tech Toolbox
You’ll work with a modern, flexible tech stack built to support NLP workflows:
- Python, PyTorch, and TensorFlow for model development and experimentation
- SpaCy, Hugging Face Transformers, and NLTK for NLP libraries
- Docker, Kubernetes, and RESTful APIs for deployment and scalability
- AWS, GCP, or Azure cloud environments
- Git, Jira, and Notion for collaborative development and documentation
We encourage ongoing learning and provide credits for training platforms, journal subscriptions, and academic conference attendance.
Qualifications: What You Bring to the Table
Essential Skills
- Robust knowledge of intelligent algorithms and language processing methodologies, such as vectorization, word embeddings, and transformer-based architectures
- Proven experience building and deploying NLP models in real-world applications
- Solid understanding of bias mitigation strategies and linguistic fairness
- Comfortable working in a remote team with asynchronous communication
Desirable Attributes
- A Master’s or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Computational Linguistics, AI, or a related field
- Familiarity with low-resource language processing or multilingual NLP
- Prior contributions to open-source NLP tools or community knowledge bases
We are an equal opportunity employer that champions inclusivity. Your background, gender identity, age, or place of origin should never define your potential—we live by that daily.
Employee Stories: Where Diversity Drives Discovery
Take Ren, a recent hire from a non-traditional coding background who joined through our community re-entry initiative. With mentorship and support, Ren built a speech analysis feature that’s now used by thousands of users daily. Or Sofia, a linguist from a refugee background, led a team that built dialect support for underrepresented regions.
These are not exceptions—they’re the rule. Our workplace is built on the belief that diverse perspectives fuel stronger innovation. We walk the talk through pay transparency, promotion equity audits, and inclusive leadership training.
Career Growth: Build, Belong, Become
This is more than a job. It's a chance to grow into a leadership role, to publish research, or to mentor emerging talent in the NLP space. We support internal mobility, personalized development paths, and community impact projects.
You’ll receive:
- Annual professional development budget
- Opportunities to contribute to open-source NLP libraries
- Access to a global network of NLP professionals and researchers
