Mahout Developer Needed for Interesting Project

Complaint Link Inc. is interested in hiring a skilled AI/NLP professional to work on a software project incorporating topic detection, clustering, entity named extraction, NLP and machine learning algorithms.

We're looking for a developer who has at least 20 hours/week to work on this project, but preferably full time. It's a contract position and could be anywhere from 1 month to 3 months. You do not have to work onsite - you can work from anywhere. 

ComplaintLink is a web start-up with a relatively simple user-interface and complicated analytical software. The website is structured much like a sophisticated forum with a social-networking component. The data being analyzed will be from user-generated textual discussions around a multitude of topics that will continuously be updated.

A successful candidate will be intimately familiar with open source resources such as Mahout, Hadoop, GATE, and other similar resources and algorithms. You must be able to work independently with very little if any supervision and have excellent problem solving and analytical abilities.

The system you will implement will access our site’s database and have the ability, without any manual keyword input for direction, to mine all textual data and present clearly which are the most 'important' or ‘hottest’ conversations and issues and be able to extract what those issues are and what related significant information is involved in those discussions. It will be able to identify and draw associations between significant pieces of information and present the information extracted in a way that provides a clear picture of the activity on the site in a practical and meaningful manner.

If you are interested in this opportunity please contact us at the following address:  developers  {at}  ComplaintLink  {dot} {com}  Please include your CV and a short description of your past work and studies and interests.

Thank you,

Complaint Link Inc.
