In this episode, I'm joined by Alexander Chukovski, Director of Data Services at Munich, Germany based career platform, Experteer. In our conversation, we explore Alex’s journey to implement machine learning at Experteer. Alex and I discuss the Experteer NLP pipeline and how it’s evolved over time to address the company’s need for greater automation in the way it processes jobs on its platform. We also discuss Alex’s work with deep learning based ML models, including models like VDCNN and Facebook’s FastText offering, which he’s particularly excited about. Finally, we briefly discuss recent papers that look at transfer learning for NLP, how Alex keeps up with recent academic papers, and a few tips for people looking to inject ML/DL in their products or projects. We’ve got some great news to share and also favor to ask! We’re in the running for this year’s People's Choice podcast awards, in both the People’s Choice and Technology categories and we’d really appreciate your support!
