Innovative Solutions, Passionate Employees

At Language Computer, we know that great people are the secret to creating great software products. We're always on the lookout for talented and energetic individuals who are committed to developing innovative new technologies that will change the way the world interacts with information.

Founded in 1995, Language Computer is a recognized industry leader in the field of natural language processing. While we’ve long been known for the quality of our research, we’re also gaining a reputation for developing software solutions that are solidly engineered and provide unbeatable performance across a wide range of application domains.

At LCC, engineers, researchers, and application developers work together in small teams to tackle a variety of challenging problems related to text annotation, semantic search, or information processing. Whether it's developing a truly "semantic" search capability for users in any domain or helping sports-mad users extract NBA scores from Farsi- or French-language documents, LCC's employees have the freedom -- and the support -- necessary to create the new kinds of NLP tools that information consumers need.
