The job

Web-IQ's technological solutions make the wealth of information from online open sources accessible to our customers to fight crime and prevent fraud.

Our Machine Learning team plays a crucial role in this. As a machine learning expert, you work on extracting information from text, images, and other media.
You develop classification models, design solutions that enable customers to query our data more efficiently and precisely, and uncover patterns by applying both existing and self-developed algorithms and machine learning methods.

Our machine learning experts do not work in vitro! There is plenty of room for research and experimentation, but your work does not stop after the R&D phase. The goal of your work is to contribute to real-world products and have to actual impact on the work of our customers. This means that our machine learning solutions need to be deployed in production both reliably and efficiently. In order to achieve this, you work together with our technical operations team and software engineers.

You will have the opportunity to research, innovate and improve the Web-IQ products and you are invited to participate with our customers and partners in international research projects to develop new skills and learn how machine learning can be used in a trustworthy way to create a safer world.
