Connectionists: Two open positions for: Data science and AI expert on NLP at Barcelona Supercomputing Center, Spain

[Martin Krallinger]

We have two open positions (start ASAP) here at my group at BSC:

Data science and AI expert on NLP


   - Position 1: https://www.bsc.es/join-us/job-opportunities/67024lsnlpre2
   <https://lnkd.in/dtBKEN9P>
   - Position 2: https://www.bsc.es/join-us/job-opportunities/66924lsnlpre2
   <https://lnkd.in/dYBDVTqP>


*Context And Mission:*

The Natural Language Processing for Biomedical Information Analysis
(NLP4BIA) group at BSC is an internationally renowned research group
working on the development of NLP, language technology, and text mining
solutions applied primarily to biomedical and clinical data. It is a highly
interdisciplinary team, funded through competitive European and National
projects requiring the implementation of natural language processing and
advanced AI solutions making use of diverse technologies, including
Transformers and recent advances in Large Language Models (LLM) to improve
healthcare data analysis.

The NLP4BIA-BSC is looking for a Research Engineer with experience in
Language Technologies and Deep Learning. The candidate will be involved in
technical work related to international projects, being part of a team of
researchers working on topics related to clinical Language Models,
multilingual NLP, benchmarking of language technology solutions and
predictive content mining. The candidate will have the opportunity to
advance the state of the art of biomedical language models and NLP methods
working in a multidisciplinary environment alongside AI experts,
computational linguists, clinical experts, and other engineers.

*DUTIES*:


   - Predictive NLP model development: Development of advance content
   mining predictive solutions including clinical NLP, automatic text
   classification
   - Pre-training of medical language models for healthcare application
   scenarios and tasks.
   - Technical project coordination: Coordinate technical contributions
   inside the team and with clinical hospital site project collaborators.
   - Implementation and deployment of clinical NLP solutions: Collaborate
   in the implementation and technical deployment of NLP platform prototypes
   at clinical sites.
   - Documentation and Reporting: Contribute to technical reports and
   project documentation


*REQUIREMENTS*

*Education*:
University degree in Computer Science, Computational Linguistic, or
engineering discipline. Candidates with a minimum of a master's degree will
be considered.

*Essential Knowledge and Professional Experience:*

   - Demonstrated experience in Natural Language Processing technologies
   - Experience in developing and training models using transformer
   architectures.
   - Practical experience with deep learning libraries (e.g. Pytorch,
   TensorFlow, Spacy, Transformers…)
   - Knowledge of deep learning methods for pre-training large language
   models using transformer architectures (like BERT, RoBERTA, DeBERTA, GPT,
   Bloom) as well as learning to implement LLMs.
   - Advanced programming skills in Python.
   - Experience in software development resources (Git)
