As part of the client’s Data Platform the software engineering team’s mission is to derive insights from scientific papers using machine learning (ML) and natural language processing (NLP). These insights are used in customer-facing applications which enables them to be more productive and successful in their work.

The client is one of the leading publishers of academic research in all domains (scientific and humanities) globally. They want to build a data platform that exploits machine learning to allow their clients and researchers better and smarter access to their huge repository of knowledge.
