Looking at developing unprecedented levels of search personalisation and localisation, each of the three STCs will be focused on developing a leading search product for their own market.

But, each centre will also specialize in a particular area of search to be applied across Europe: User Experience in London (improvements to layout, display of results, and homepage, as well as delivering instant answers to popular searches); Relevance in Munich (ensuring that the most relevant web results are produced for all languages), and Local Search in Paris (exploring local content onboarding, and delivering the locally most relevant results in multiple domains).

With top priorities being to index every database in the world and build a rich user interface to search billions of documents, carry out multiple searches at once and deliver almost instantaneous results, we’ve certainly got our work cut out.

But, with your expertise on board, we’re confident we can lead the market through our unwavering commitment to innovation, quality and quantifiable results.

Just some of the skill sets we’re looking for include C/C++ and C# programming skills, solid Object Oriented design skills, web UI development (XHTML, XSLT/CSS, JS, and SOAP), machine learning, information retrieval, or data mining skills – preferable gained on very large-scale datasets or web applications.
