DeepL...
is Germany's best-known AI company. We develop neural networks to help people
work with language. With DeepL Translator, we have created the world's best
machine translation system and made it available free of charge to everyone
online. Over the next few years, we aim to make DeepL the world's leading
language technology company.
Our goal is to overcome language barriers and bring cultures closer
together.
What distinguishes us from other companies?
DeepL (formerly Linguee) was founded by developers and researchers. We focus
on the development of new, exciting products, which is why we spend a lot of
time actively researching the latest topics. We understand the challenges of
developing new products and try to meet them with an agile and dynamic way of
working. Our work culture is very open because we want our employees to feel
comfortable. In our daily work we use modern technologies - not only to
translate texts, but also to create the world's best dictionaries, and solve
other language problems.
When we tell people about DeepL as an employer, reactions are overwhelmingly
positive. Maybe it's because they have enjoyed our services, or maybe they
just want to get on board with our quest to break down language barriers and
facilitate communication.
What will you be doing at DeepL in future?
We are growing very strongly and are gaining a large number of customers every
day. That is an exciting time! At the same time, our tasks, expenses and
accounts are also growing.
And this is where you come in with your expertise: through your experience and
motivation, you make your contribution to the expansion and transformation of
our accounting. You are part of a growing team and start shortly after the
introduction of our new ERP system. You will have the opportunity to shape
things from the ground up and thus also according to your ideal conception.
Through your foresight, you will ensure smoothly functioning accounting
processes in the long term, as they are ideally lived in technology-affine
companies.
