Factmata (http://factmata.com/) | Full Stack NLP Engineer | 3-month Contract with potential for 30-40% co-founder equity | London, REMOTE We are Factmata, a machine intelligence and AI startup for automated political fact checking. We were just funded by Google and its Digital News Initiative to build a prototype of our NLP research (https://www.theguardian.com/media/2016/nov/17/fake-news-goog...) Our team consists of 3 NLP researchers, entrepreneurs and developers. 2 of our team (Andreas Vlachos (http://andreasvlachos.github.io/) and Sebastian Riedel (http://www.riedelcastro.org/)) are distinguished academics in the NLP space and have contributed in excess of 50+ papers combined in the field of machine learning and natural language processing, especially claim detection and fact checking. The position will entail implementing a usable version of our existing research as a product for people to use (Vlachos and Riedel, EMNLP 2015, "Identification and Verification of Simple Claims about Statistical Properties), enhance the NLP behind it, and build a full big data, information extraction and semantic parsing pipeline around it.
