Co-Founder, NLP/Data Science (Language Focus)
We’re building LingoMed, a platform that helps international healthcare professionals overcome language and medical terminology barriers through AI-powered, contextual learning.
We've already:
1. Mapped out workflows & designed the content database
2. Validated the concept with early users
3. Identified a massive market need
Now, we’re looking for a Co-Founder with NLP and/or Linguistics expertise to help shape the product, design language learning systems, and turn this into a transformative tool.
Why This Matters
Thousands of healthcare professionals want to work in Germany—but face serious delays and frustration due to language barriers. We believe AI-driven, contextual language learning, grounded in real medical communication, can unlock faster, more effective integration into the German healthcare system.
Who We’re Looking For
NLP Researcher / Data Scientist / Linguist (Language Focus) – You bring expertise in NLP, machine learning, or data science — ideally applied to language learning or linguistic data. You’ve worked with tools and methods like corpus-based learning, linguistic annotation, transformer-based models, embeddings, or libraries such as spaCy and NLTK. Experience working with German language models is a strong plus. You know how to design scalable systems that turn linguistic concepts into structured, personalized learning experiences. A background in applied linguistics, DaF/DaZ, or computational linguistics is a bonus, especially if you can bridge the gap between technical NLP and real learner needs.
Clear Communicator & Thinker – You can break down complex language ideas into simple flows and educational experiences. Bonus if you’ve worked on curriculum or content design.
Fluent German – Minimum B2 required. You understand how non-native speakers struggle with German grammar, syntax, and domain-specific language.
Full-Time Commitment – This is not a side project. While we’re flexible on the start date, you’ll need to be fully invested—both in time and mindset.
Entrepreneurial Spirit – You're not looking for a job; you're looking to build. You’re excited by early-stage chaos, learning fast, and owning your domain.
Living in Germany (ideally Berlin) – We’re based in Berlin and prefer in-person collaboration when possible.
What We Offer
Early-Stage Salary – €2,500 - €3,000/month (gross). We know it’s less than market rate, but this is an opportunity to build something with long-term rewards.
Co-Founder Equity – Vesting-based ownership. You’ll have real skin in the game and share in our success.
A Culture of Learning – You'll shape the product, the pedagogy, and the technology. You’ll also grow as a leader and startup co-founder.
