What are the responsibilities and job description for the Natural Language Processing (NLP) Intern position at Innovative Embedded Systems Pvt. Ltd. (SIIC IIT Kanpur).?
At Charles River Analytics, we develop leading-edge solutions and technology to address the world's most complex challenges. Our team of innovative entrepreneurs drives advancements in AI, robotics, smart sensing, and human-centered computing. Our research and development efforts not only propel government programs forward but also unlock new opportunities in the commercial sector. As a 100% employee-owned company, we foster a culture of participation, innovation, and accountability among our staff. We take immense pride in our ability to attract and retain the industry's most talented and creative problem solvers.
Our interns work on real projects and cutting-edge technology. We believe strongly in promoting within, which is demonstrated by the fact that we not only have hired former interns, but that several of our senior-level staff began their careers at Charles River as interns!
We have an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic computational linguist with high interest and research experience in natural language processing (NLP) to work on applied NLP research solving real operational problems for the U.S. Government and commercial customers.
What will do you?
You will work on understanding and generating natural language using a variety of technologies, such as grammars, large language models (LLMs), semantic technologies, machine learning, and advanced visualizations to support decision-making. You will work on hybrid NLP projects that combine LLMs with symbolic AI. You will work in small project-oriented research groups led by a Principal Investigator and supported by other scientists and software engineers. You will perform scientific research and rapid prototyping. You will also have the opportunity to contribute to published research. This internship will give you an opportunity to gain real world experience on interesting projects and the potential for future full-time employment. At Charles River Analytics, we foster an environment where scientists are free to pursue their own research interests as well as working in highly collaborative teams.
Example projects you may work on include:
