leading-edge technology that supports intelligent
information access and markets this technology to
software OEMs for use within their applications. We
have an immediate need for an experienced Computational
Linguist to develop applications for our LinguistX product
family. LinguistX provides a collection of advanced natural

engines to handwriting recognition.

Interested candidates should have an advanced degree in

focus on morphology, syntax, or lexicography. In addition,
we require commercial software development experience
using C/C++, Java, Prolog, and/or Lisp, as well as strong
shell scripting/makefile/perl skills. In addition,
knowledge of finite-state parsing techniques and/or two-level
grammars is a strong plus. Experience with Asian languages is
also desirable.
