Automatic Speech Recognition Engineer

We invite you to one of the largest speech and language processing teams in Europe. Our lab is a place where engineers, researchers and language experts work together on innovative products for multi-lingual European market. We use cutting edge Artificial Intelligence techniques, big-scale data and adequate computational resources to develop future human language technologies.

We work closely with other Samsung R&D teams to develop the next-generation intelligent personal assistant Bixby. With Bixby we change the way billions of users access, explore and interact with knowledge, information and services. Bixby uses a natural language user interface to perform various tasks on Samsung devices:
