• Support internal teams by conducting linguistic research and summarizing findings.
• Apply linguistic knowledge to evaluate model behavior, error patterns, and generalization issues.

• Experience with one or more of the following is a plus: computational linguistics, corpus analysis, language data annotation, LLM training.
• Strong writing, editing, and communication skills.
