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 to everyone free of charge.
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 trends and technologies. We understand
the challenges of developing new products and try to meet them with an agile
and dynamic way of working. Our open and positive workplace philosophy enables
employees to feel comfortable and thrive in their roles. 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-related 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?
Thanks to our unique neural networks, DeepL is able to deliver the world's
best translation quality. In order to keep it that way, the great work being
done by our engineers needs to be documented and communicated in a way that
our DeeopLe and customers can understand even without a technical background.
You will join our EngOrg team working closely with our Engineering leaders and
technical experts from all over the organisation to create documentation and
content across the scope of our product.
