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.

Work from Germany, the Netherlands, the UK or Poland Your choice! Currently, we offer remote work in Germany, the Netherlands, the UK and Poland, and we are constantly looking for outstanding employees. Whether you would like to work from home in one of these countries or from one of our offices in Cologne, 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?

You will cooperate closely with our current localization project manager as well as with different stakeholders, including web and app engineers, product managers, UX specialists, copywriters, and designers. You will also assist a wonderful and highly qualified team of localization specialists who work in different languages to ensure that all of our localized content makes the DeepL user experience successful worldwide.

We hope to hear from you if you have a passion for languages, share our love for detail, and enjoy teamwork. If you are a highly motivated person willing to help wherever possible, we can't wait to meet you!
