Natural Language Processing Engineer
Quick Facts
What They Do
A Natural Language Processing Engineer specializes in developing and implementing algorithms and models tailored for understanding, processing, and generating natural language text. They utilize methodologies such as tokenization, parsing, named entity recognition, part-of-speech tagging, and other NLP techniques to perform tasks including text classification, chatbot development, and other applications where the primary input or output is natural language text.
Core Tasks:
- Analyze, manipulate, or process large sets of data using statistical software.
- Apply feature selection algorithms to models predicting outcomes of interest, such as sales, attrition, and healthcare use.
- Apply sampling techniques to determine groups to be surveyed or use complete enumeration methods.
- Clean and manipulate raw data using statistical software.
- Compare models using statistical performance metrics, such as loss functions or proportion of explained variance.
- Create graphs, charts, or other visualizations to convey the results of data analysis using specialized software.
- Deliver oral or written presentations of the results of mathematical modeling and data analysis to management or other end users.
- Design surveys, opinion polls, or other instruments to collect data.
- Identify business problems or management objectives that can be addressed through data analysis.
- Identify relationships and trends or any factors that could affect the results of research.
- Identify solutions to business problems, such as budgeting, staffing, and marketing decisions, using the results of data analysis.
