Job Description

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 free of charge to everyone online. 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 topics. We understand the challenges of developing new products and try to meet them with an agile and dynamic way of working. Our work culture is very open because we want our employees to feel comfortable. 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 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.

We are constantly looking for outstanding employees! Currently, we offer remote work in Germany, the Netherlands, the UK and Poland. Whether you would like to work from home in one of these countries or from one of our offices in Cologne, Berlin, London or Amsterdam: the choice is yours. No matter where you choose to work from, our way of working is designed to make you an essential part of the team.

What will you be doing at DeepL?

The job will also give you the opportunity to grow and learn alongside other talented professionals as you take on a wide array of interesting linguistic tasks that require problem-solving, language analysis, proofreading, editing and reviewing language data, and advising on various cultural aspects of your language. At DeepL, you’ll find a workplace that’s both challenging and rewarding.

If you are passionate about language and excited by the opportunities ahead, we would love to hear from you!

  • Proofread English texts, paying particular attention to linguistic subtleties and nuances

  • Advise on aspects of American English culturally and linguistically
  • Test and evaluate machine and human translation data
  • Gather and prepare data for use in linguistic projects

  • A friendly, international, and highly committed team
  • The chance to work on a product that is already used by over 500 million people
  • Regular team events
  • Lots of flexibility to work fully remotely in Germany, the UK, the Netherlands, or Poland – or from one of our vibrant offices in Cologne, Berlin, London, or Amsterdam

About you:

We are looking forward to your application!
