<p><a href="https://www.dfki.de/en/web">DFKI</a>’s <a href="https://www.dfki.de/en/web/research/research-departments/speech-and-language-technology">Speech
and Language Technology Department (SLT)</a> addresses the use
of AI for analysing, generating and interacting through spoken and
written language. Its focus is on information extraction from
written text and from spoken language, on knowledge technologies,
and on interactive chatbots. We are particularly interested in
core research on learning in low-resource settings, reasoning over
larger contexts, and continual learning. We strive for a deeper
understanding of human language and thinking, with the goal of
developing novel methods for processing and generating human
language text, speech, and knowledge. An important part of our
work is the creation of corpora, the evaluation of NLP datasets
and tasks, and the explainability of (neural) models.</p>
<p>In order to strengthen our dedicated team in Berlin we are
looking for</p>
<p>Student assistants (m/f/d) <em>(part-time, temporary)</em></p>
<p><strong>Your Tasks</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Support in researching and developing methods for information
extraction - including named entity recognition, relation
extraction, e.g. via prompting/ChatGPT, fine-tuning of language
models</li>
<li>Implementation of models, conducting experiments and assisting
with evaluation/data work</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Your Qualifications</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Advanced/completed bachelor's degree or started master's
degree in computer science, computational linguistics or
comparable subjects</li>
<li>You have an independent, structured and goal-oriented way of
working</li>
<li>You have very good knowledge of programming in Python</li>
<li>Good knowledge of English or German</li>
<li>Understanding of basic ML and NLP algorithms and concepts</li>
<li>Experience with deep learning/NLP frameworks such as PyTorch,
HuggingFace, LangChain, with prompting and large language models
such as GPT3.5/4, Llama2, and knowledge in related areas such as
linguistics or mathematics are an advantage</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Your Benefits</strong></p>
<p>The advertised position offers</p>
<ul>
<li>a broad and interesting range of tasks, room for creativity,
and working in a dynamic and international team</li>
<li>participation in groundbreaking, innovative research projects
in the areas of NLP and AI</li>
<li>Flexible working hours (Flexitime, mobile working). You can
work up to 20 hours per week and adapt them flexibly to your
lectures</li>
</ul>
