StreamSage believes that our recent advancements, along with several
technological developments of the last few years, have for the first
time made possible the development of an intelligent system to bring
true interactivity to both streaming, digital media and television.
Such a system has the potential to completely revolutionize the
delivery of media - a proposition that has, not surprisingly,
attracted the attention of major on-line and off-line media companies
alike. 

StreamSage is now recruiting for new positions within this exciting
effort. 

Research positions are available immediately (starting date flexible).
Research focuses on time-based modeling of spoken language for the
purpose of automated digital media manipulation via intelligent,
adaptive algorithms, neural networks, rule-based frameworks, and
large-ontology interpretation.

Candidates should have a strong background in a variety of
computational linguistics techniques. A sufficiently independent
spirit is necessary for use within a startup that develops
state-of-the-art technology. Familiarity with Java is a plus.
Proficient knowledge of the English language is required.
Compensation is competitive, with full benefits and attractive
incentive package. 

Please send resume, 2 recommendations, and representative publications
to the address listed below, or inquire with any questions or
comments. E-mail inquiries and applications are encouraged.
